Joy... I spoke with AMGEN right after the word about the GDNF trials came out.
  What little (and I stress the word "little") I was able to find out was that
the trials will take 2 to 3 years, are being done with 50 persons, in
unknown-to me locations, and the drug is inserted or injected in a pallidotomy
like hole.

That's not a lot to go on, and it was a frustrating phone call, to say the
least.  It's possible that more information is now available as several months
have passed since my call to Amgen.

Either no one read my question or no one knows... I will ask again: Does
anyone have any information about the AMGEN trials with GDNF?  Where are
they happening, has anyone received any GDNF yet?
Thanks
