taxotere/docetaxel source

[Tobias Baskin]

Greetings,
	      Can anyone tell me how to obtain a sample of docetaxel (also
known as Taxotere) for research? Is this compound available
commercially? Or need one contact Rhone-Poulenc? If the latter, can
anyone provide a USA contact at that company.
	Please reply to me at my email address because I don't subscribe to
this news group.
     Many thanks,
