How can a patient learn more about clinical trials that are available? I mean I think sometimes it may be good to have a second opinion if a patient can get it especially in a center where they have an expertise and then if there is any opportunity for participating in a clinical trial as we discussed and if it is the standard of care in the clinical trial I think definitely they should consider it and you know like sometimes the organizations like the patient you know support groups or leukemia, lymphoma society, foundations you know they should be seeking out more information as much as possible before starting any treatment. Sometimes you know the better to get all the information and make the decision you know for the right treatment you know before even starting. So seeking a second opinion, getting information from you know reliable sources and also checking the clinicaltrial.go to find out you know what are the different types of trials available for them. I think those are the main things.
