Hi Snoopy,
I have heard that Roche isn't going to submit the licensing paperwork in Europe until early 2000. Apparently the results have to be published in a peer-reviewed journal first, but the New England Journal of Medicine is expected to do this first.

However, it is important not to confused licensing with availability, since oncologists can often use drugs for non-licensed indications. And even when drugs have been licensed, there are still issues of availability in some countries.

Take care,
Christine
