Press Release Summary: International Mesothelioma Program Focused on Prolonging
Survival, Improving Quality of Life for Disease Victims

Press Release Body: While most of the medical world is still lagging behind when it
comes to malignant mesothelioma-a deadly, asbestos-caused illness affecting as many
as 3,000 Americans each year, one facility is facing the disease head-on. Brigham
and Women's Hospital in Boston is home to the International Mesothelioma Program
(IMP), a large-scale initiative to advance the study of mesothelioma and broaden
treatment options for victims.

"Brigham and Women's is breaking new ground in the realm of mesothelioma treatment,"
explains Attorney Jim Sokolove, principal and founder of the Law Offices of James
Sokolove (www.jimsokolove.com). "The IMP is focused on understanding the root cause
of this illness and more importantly, translating its findings into prolonging
survival time and quality of life for patients. The remarkable efforts of Dr. David
Sugarbaker, the program's founder, and his dedicated team are giving new hope to
mesothelioma victims that a cure will soon be a reality."

Brigham and Women's Hospital is listed as a comprehensive cancer center on the
Mesothelioma Resource Center (www.mesorc.com), a new website by the Law Offices of
James Sokolove that was launched earlier in the fall. Designed for mesothelioma
victims and their families, the MRC offers a wealth of information on current
mesothelioma research, clinical trials, and treatment alternatives.

"Our goal is to empower mesothelioma victims to make informed decisions about their
treatment and care," Sokolove says. "The MRC is kept updated with the most
cutting-edge treatments and treatment facilities available today." He adds, "We're
proud to feature Brigham and Women's Hospital on our website and wholly support
their efforts to eradicate this devastating disease."
