A Personal Option Series - The Right to Try Experimental Treatments

Imagine the worst case scenario – you’ve been diagnosed with a terminal illness. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel – an experimental treatment giving patients in Europe hope. Now imagine that light extinguished as the FDA informs you that despite the deadly consequences, they will not permit you to try it.

In this Insight to Action, Dean Clancy joins us to talk about the right to try, and our belief that you should have the choice on what risks you’re willing to take with your treatment.
