Hi, Anon.

Thank you for posting.

This is the most recent information I was able to find. Sometimes these trails take time before anything is forthcoming. I'll update this thread if I find/hear more information.

Hi Helena,
I just read about Ubinimex for Lymphadema of the legs. Has this study been conducted already? Do yo know the results? Has it been approved in the USA?
I have had Lymphadema of both legs due to Lymphadema nodes taken out. Have been hospitalized several times due to cellulitis.
I hope this research will be of great help to all
