29
Q

Individual Patient Access - Parallel Track Policy

A

An individual pt acting through physician may request an IND (Phase 2/3) for treatment of serious disease or condition

** If sufficient evidence of safety/efficacy and it won’t interfere with clinical trial **

30
Q

Expanded Access (a.k.a Compassionate use)

Potential pathway for pt with life-threatening condition to try drugs with no alternate therapy available

can even use phase I

Q

What patients are eligible for Expanded Access?

A
  1. Been diagnosed with a life-threatening disease or condition
  2.
