Do you have a patient with a serious or immediately life-threatening disease or condition? Expanded access, sometimes called compassionate use, is a potential pathway for a patient with a serious or immediately life-threatening disease or condition to try an investigational medical product for treatment outside of clinical trials when there are no comparable or satisfactory therapies available. Patients should meet the following criteria:    ☑️ There is no comparable or satisfactory alternative therapy to diagnose, monitor, or treat the disease or condition.  ☑️ Patient enrollment in a clinical trial is not possible.  ☑️ Potential patient benefit justifies the potential risks of treatment.  ☑️ Providing the investigational medical product will not interfere with investigational trials that could support a medical product’s development or marketing approval for the treatment indication.    Learn more about expanded access resources for patients & health care professionals ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eCDqQUDD   Check out this guidance document featuring questions and answers regarding expanded access ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gXmZ-Gpr
