I also think it has to do more w/ individual docs, hospital irb's, ins. and different state regs. It has been given off protocol at farber here in Boston. caes by case basis . I have heard that in Mass. ins co' s are required to cover off protocol. Comp use was granted in Fla for darlene gant ( FB, youtube ). That was before FDA approval for first line use only. That conditional decision , and its effectrs on late stage iv pts, must be publicized. I would go to media. report the ins co to the state board . and in the media .
