Right to Try Documentation

What is Right to Try Documentation?

Right to Try documentation refers to paperwork that allows terminally ill patients to access experimental drugs that have completed Phase 1 clinical trials but aren't yet FDA approved. This pathway bypasses standard FDA expanded access programs for faster access to potential treatments.

Why is Right to Try important?

  • Hope for terminal patients: Access to experimental treatments.
  • Expedited process: Faster than traditional expanded access.
  • Patient autonomy: Choice to try unproven therapies.

Requirements for Right to Try

  • Terminal diagnosis.
  • Exhausted approved treatments.
  • Unable to participate in clinical trials.
  • Informed consent understanding.
