Is it fair for social media to play a role in determining which patients get access to experimental treatments?
Can rescuing individual patients in need be reconciled with an evidence-based regulatory approval process for new therapies?
And, if there is a duty to “rescue” terminally ill patients by paying for access to experimental therapies who has that obligation?
Dr. Caplin addresses these questions in this lecture.
