SKI 606 is still under investigation, but I hear patients are doing very well on the drug.
If you cannot get into a trial and are not on Sprycel, you should give it a try. The new reduced dose greatly diminishes the risk of Pleural Effusion, which was a concern about this is the past. I have been on Sprycel since last February and I have NO issues with Pleural Effusion, and I am doing fantastic. Now that doctors have gained better experience with the drug, it is generally being well tolerated. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
