Good luck, over here everythings gotten so political w/ This FDA , and their agenda to punish pharma for supposed past transgressions. We end up being punished . I see a lot of that FDA craziness in the T DM-1 approval process. Waiting for approval based on EMILIA was pushed on the co. by the FDA . Theresa seems like a trial that , at least partly, aimed at enrolling more pts, getting the drug to more pts, in response to This FDA 's crazy rejection of t dm-1. have you ever heard of a randomization where 2 out of 3 get the better drug, t dm-1 ? its usually 50/ 50. Marianne , other trials testing combos like pert., - let them test them on folks w/ first re-occ's. You Late Stage IV people have suffered enough.
Over here we continue to fight to have This FDA thoroughly investigated. We also want the comp use process overhauled, w/ an FDA that works for us. Pushing co's : If you think your drug is good enough to be considered for acc. approval, then its good enough to give Late Stage IV's thru comp use. When our youtube video from our June protest comes out , you will see plenty of signs for FDA reform, but also a few purposely stating " Genentech : Where's the Compassion ? ", " Roche Holding AG : Is This Personalized Health Care ? ". They gave no comp use last yr, we have heard they are more flexible lately. About Time , Lets See It ! If you are Late Stage IV , reoccurences plural, high over expr of her2, progressed on a taxane , tykerb, We think you deserve Compassionate Use ! These Co.s , Researchers, FDA, cannot do their research w/ out YOUR Tremendous Stage IV SACRIFICE ! Speak Up ! Get your fam, friends to call your reps, and your mainstream , big advocacy grps. Speak up for Stage IV Rights ! Darlene Gant did, and got comp use for pert !
