My consultant said that the results of this trial were due to be published this month.... wondering if anyone has heard if it showed anything.

Or if Prof Quenby is still prescribing prednisolone, as she would be the one closest to the trial that I know of???

Thank you.

Is this to do with breast cancer? I read something about it in the paper today and it said that a trial has shown that women who have taken it do not become as seriosuly ill with breast cancer or take longer to become that ill. It said more research needed to be done but the medication may be able to be used to prevent or treat breast cancer.

It caught my eye as my dad takes it.

Sorry, just seen this is in the miscarriage topic so probably nothing to do with breast cancer.

Thank you for replying, yes the trial was to do with recurrent miscarriages!
I should have said that in the OP.
