RC: There
are a good number of useful drugs for cancer not
available in the US (and vice versa) ranging from
chemotherapies (eg oral navelbine) to adjuvant
agents (eg clodronate) and immune-enhancing agents
(eg Lentinan). These are drugs that are approved
in other countries and available to US citizens
under personal compassionate
import rules of the US FDA. Other
cancer treatments are a process and not any particular
drug alone, an example is the dendritic cell vaccine
therapy which is of great promise. We routinely
advise on the use of such agents / treatments
and assist the patient in sourcing such agents
/treatments as well as help patients with the
necessary documentation to legitimately import
such medication(s) or otherwise advise and ssist
with the logistics of participating in promising
treatments internationally outside of the United
States. |
