Re: Recommendations Proposed for Off-Label Cancer Treatments

Quote:
The recommendations in the document are divided into four categories: trial design and data analysis, patient and site recruitment, comparators, and outcomes.
Seems to me the more fundamental concern with respect to off label use for cancer is funding trials. Consider Metformin..dirt cheap/generic available, pretty safe..and no way to capitalize on/recoup cancer trials in a normal pharma sense. It's already on the market as a cheap drug..hard to call it by another name and charge 2,000% more.
