Latest kick in the ass, getting use to this now. Read from bottom up please.

Mejaki, Marie5:41 PM (34 minutes ago) to me Hi Russ, Unfortunately yes. These are all oral medications, which are only approved to be taken by mouth. I will keep you in mind if the requirements change or if we have any new trials that would allow meds to be taken by tube. You can always check https://clinicaltrials.gov/ to view available trials.

Russ, I'm sorry to hear that you weren't able to participate in this trial. Hopefully there is another one that you can be part of.
