Re: once or twice daily oral irreversible egfr AND her2 inhibitor being developed inC

Elly it is in Phase 1 in China already. Yes I love the fact that little regulation allow for fast progress in that country. If only things were carried out with the type of professionalism we can find in the west (which hopefully they will improve on and learn not to cut corners as much) we will all go there pretty soon as oppose to be on the most toxic drug possible licensed 25 to 50 years ago on the basis that there are too many risk trialling these apparently much less toxic products..

From their paper: "Our data establish AST1306, which is currently in phase I clinical trial in China, as a novel irreversible ErbB inhibitor that deserves further development."

I share my views with the father of the DNA discovery:
