DRUG REPURPOSING FOR TERMINAL-STAGE CANCER PATIENTS
Original language description
I suggest that, instead of patient-generated demand of not yet clinically tested drugs, oncologists should systematically monitor clinical trials of old drugs repurposed for cancer treatment and offer them for terminally ill patients. Hopefully, some lives could be prolonged safely at low cost and growing public support could encourage governments to fund larger clinical trials ensuring low cost of the drugs in the case they are approved for the new indication in oncology.
