My brother who lives in Dublin, Ireland is treatment resistent to oestrgen therapy and radiation for prostrate tumour. He now has some bone metastestes. We are researching alternate drugs like Abiratirone for him to take. How can he obtain this drug before 2011 in Ireland if this is possible. All avenues have to be explored and it loooks like Abiratrone might be another option for him to try and give him hope ( and his family ) to prolong the quality of his life.
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Sir,
I'm Josip Crncic from Croatia. I have prostate cancer and it was removed by surgery, but now it’s spread to bones. I would like to take part in your research with abirateron, of course if it is possible. My doctors here in Croatia would control therapy and watch results.
