absolutely . its spreading fast - lots of pent - up frustration with this so - called compassionate use law. I think calif. will be in the Fall.
but it seems to be getting fdas' attention . reporters asking about it. this past Friday , the commissioner was in boston. talking about speeding up drug approvals , still empty talk , after 5 years ! and she talked about " The patient voice, the patient experience is very important to us " more empty words.
but there was word in the Globe of a " private mtg. " with bio execs to talk about giving " patients with terminal illnesses access to unproven drugs ... ' -sounds like Right To Try to me !
wouldn't it be nice if fda and Pfizer did the right thing with palbociclib this month -approve right way this month. or at least Pfizer could give truly compassionate use to the sickest while fda " analyzes data " for months.
