Found another article stating how they dosed in the study – 4 weeks on, then 2 weeks off Zel, then repeat. All mice dosed this way were alive at 100 days, all dosed continually were not. Definitely asking my doc about these Swiss mice next wk as he has been talking about dosing me on & off on a schedule. I tolerate Zel so poorly, I think the longest I have ever been on a constant dose was 4-5 weeks since last April anyway.

This is fascinating news & exciting to see it being explored and showing "compelling" results!! Here's to some Zelboraf holidays in the future for all you Z takers!!!! I think especially for people like you, Amy, who have such a time with the side effects. Very promising news.
