Top Boston Mesothelioma Law firm led by Shepard a leading Boston attorney Launches New Website to Provide a Valuable Information Resource to Assist Anyone with Questions About Mesothelioma and Other Asbestos-Related Injuries.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) October 22, 2007 -- Approximately six years after the 9/11 tragedy, more and more individuals are being medically documented as having experienced complications related to toxic exposure from the event. Dangerous exposure has been reported to have affected thousands both during and after the cleaning up of debris.

This exposure has led to mesothelioma cancer and other injuries caused by asbestos to become recent headlines for what appears to be a sudden epidemic of affliction. Evidence also suggests that past exposure from unregulated asbestos use many years prior to September 11, 2001, will also produce a resurgence of the pandemic in the near future.

Medical experts as well as experts from various other fields have joined in the crusade to help victims and their families better understand the issues surrounding asbestos exposure. Boston-based mesothelioma attorney Michael Shepard of the Shepard Law Firm has recently created an online community that helps individuals get answers to their questions, and opens doors for victims and their families.

Asbestos and Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is considered to be the most severe of all of the asbestos related diseases and one that requires the least amount of exposure to asbestos in order to develop. Exposure to asbestos often occurs in public places, primarily sites which serve as one's place of employment. Mesothelioma is an incurable form of cancer that affects the lungs, chest cavity, and surrounding organs and areas of the body. Symptoms of the disease typically do not occur or become noticeable until decades after being exposed.

The New Online Resource for Victims
By visiting this Boston based Mesothelioma Cancer web site, victims of asbestos and others who have questions about the disease can receive the answers they need. The launch of the new website is Attorney Shepard's response to the growing number of Mesothelioma treatment cases being reported, and the realization of the need to help people become informed on a more widespread scale. However, the website is meant to serve as more than just a simple research tool, it has been created to be an online means of support for those affected by mesothelioma and other serious diseases. Its format is created to be both easy to interpret and educational.

Key website features includes:
What Causes Mesothelioma
Symptoms of Mesothelioma

Specialized Care, Nutrition and advance treatment options.

Plus links to books, articles, and other websites one can access for published information. Information on cancer support groups and treatment facilities as well as travel and lodging for family members of victims receiving treatment are other beneficial features. Actual personal stories are provided to demonstrate to victims and their families that they are not alone.

Victims of asbestos cancer and other related diseases are encouraged to visit the site to become more knowledgeable about their options.

Exodon announces a new clinical research trial to combat break through cancer pain. The focus of the campaign is to study the efficacy of a new nasal spray.

Mount Arlington, NJ (PRWEB) October 20, 2007 -- Exodon LLC, a leading international clinical research company, announces the start of a new clinical trial for break through cancer pain (BTCP). The clinical trial will be is being conducted by Archimedes Development, Ltd.

Exodon is currently recruiting patients suffering from break through cancer related pain (BTCP). The focus of this clinical trial is to study the efficacy of a new nasal formation of an on-the-market opioid for BTCP. Oral opioid analgesics in pill or injection form take time to work and these medications remain active well after the break through pain has stopped. Because of these issues, this trial is researching a nasal spray application of an opioid medication. The opioid in the form of a nasal spray offers the benefits of a more rapid onset with decreased side-effect profile and can be used with the patient's current opioid medications for BTCP.

Break through pain is pain that is not controlled by the regular doses of pain medicines and is often a severe flare of pain that can occur even if patients are taking medicine for other types of pain.

"Since break through pain is not predictable and medication is only taken at the onset of pain, it is important for the drugs to take effect as soon as possible," says Gerald Tramontano, Ph.D., Director of Clinical Research of Exodon. "That is why a nasal spray has an advantage over other types of medicinal applications. We have a history of working with many leading hospitals and physicians and believe this trial will be of interest nationwide."

Trial participants pay no diagnostic or treatment costs related to the BTCP clinical trial.

Visit http://www.exodon.com for criteria for inclusion in this clinical trial and for more information about all of Exodon's current and upcoming clinical trials.
