Help Cure Patrick Swayze & Connie Loughman

Help Cure Patrick Swayze & Connie Loughman – Video made by: www.CureConnieAndPatrick.com Presentation by the Loughman family of Indianapolis, IN. Connie Loughman, loving wife and mother of three daughters, is battling pancreatic cancer, the same disease that Hollywood legend, Patrick Swayze, recently announced he has. Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. 90% of patients die within 1-year of being diagnosed. Over 95% of patients die within 5-years of being diagnosed. The good news is that there is a revolutionary new treatment called TNFerade by GenVec, Inc. which is in clinical trials and has already cured patients and saved lives. The FDA allows persons with terminal illnesses for which there is no effective treatment protocol (a universe which includes pancreatic cancer patients) to obtain access to drugs in clinical trials – outside of the trial. It’s called expanded access use. The problem: GenVec, Inc. has denied requests by people with pancreatic cancer to receive the drug outside of the current PACT clinical trial – even those who are willing to pay for the costs of the treatment (such as the Loughman family). Please go to www.CureConnieAndPatrick.com and ask GenVec, Inc. to grant compassionate use access of TNFerade to pancreatic cancer patients such as Connie Loughman and Patrick Swayze.
