Re: Questions about "Compassionate Use" for Trial Drugs

Katherine

I dont know what state you live in but it might be a state that has a right to try law passed if Tucatinib has passed the stage one clinical tests which are basically toxicity studies. My guess is that these stage one studies have already been done, not 100% sure.
I researched the drug and the side effects are fatigue, rash etc but unlike the molecules that also inhibit the EGFR the diarrhea is less than Tykerb. The MTD has been established at 300mg twice a day. See if the right to try applies to you where you live.
no harm in trying
