RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Government's site Parp inhibitors were approved from phase II for ovarian cancer. They don't cure anyone but they can keep BRCA positive patients in remission for a few years. Some nasty side-effects are possible.
As for the time it takes to get on the trial, it took my wife about 8 months but waa because Dr Winer preferred immunotherapy and they kept telling us that there were no spots. She didn't get on the trial until I said it is TH1902 or nothing. But by that time it was too late. Tumors had already invaded one kidney, the left main bronchus, the pancreas, and blocked the bile ducts and the small intestine.
You can get a patient on a trial within 2 or 3 weeks if they meet the criteria. Just medical history or positive blood work can keep you off. Biopsy needs to be taken but the results won't keep you off. Ct Scan and eye test can be taken the day before. If they really want to they could get a patient on in a week.
