Our Guide to “ Pre-Approval ” Access to Drugs For Both Doctors & Patients
By ALISON-BATEMAN HOUSE
Patients (and physicians) trying to access an unapproved drug outside of a clinical trial can feel as though they’re navigating uncharted waters. Many physicians don’t know that the FDA permits the use of unapproved drugs outside of clinical trials; those who do know often have no idea how to access such drugs for their patients. Those physicians who know about pre-approval access are largely specialists in certain areas—often, oncology or rare diseases—and they are generally self-taught: they didn’t learn about pre-approval access in medical school or in their residencies. Thus, while som...

Our Guide to Pre-Approval Access to Drugs For Both Doctors & Patients
By ALISON-BATEMAN HOUSE
In April 2016, I published guidance, in the form of a mock case study, on how to access a drug before it has been approved by the FDA—what’s known as pre-approval (or expanded or compassionate) access. This is an updated version of that guidance, reflecting multiple important changes in the pre-approval landscape over the past year. In particular, the FDA rolled out a new, streamlined form for single-patient requests, and Congress passed the 21st Century Cures Act, which, among many other things, mandated that certain pharmaceutical companies provide public information about their pre-approval ...

Bone biopsy in nephrology practice.
Authors: Barreto FC, Costa CRVD, Reis LMD, Custódio MR
Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD), a group of metabolic bone diseases secondary to chronic kidney disease (CKD), still represents a great challenge to nephrologists. Its management is tailored by the type of bone lesion - of high or low turnover - that cannot be accurately predicted by serum biomarkers of bone remodeling available in daily clinical practice, mainly parathyroid hormone (PTH) and alkaline phosphatase (AP). In view of this limitation, bone biopsy followed by bone quantitative histomorphometry, the gold-standard method for the diagnosis of ROD, ...

Inside the Effort to Promote Abortion Pills For a Post-Roe America
If the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade this summer, as a leaked draft opinion suggests it may, abortion will likely be banned or severely restricted in about half of the United States. But that doesn’t necessarily mean the country will return to a world before 1973, when the landmark Supreme Court case enshrined a constitutional right to abortion.
Abortion pills, which can be ordered online and delivered by mail, have already fundamentally changed reproductive rights in America. The regimen of two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol, can in theory be safely taken anywhere, including in the privacy of people&rsquo...

Trends in Applications for Thoracic Fellowship in Comparison With Other Subspecialties.
CONCLUSIONS: Given the above data, it does not appear that LOT is the critical issue associated with the decline in fellowship applications for TS. The increased demand for integrated training programs may be reflective of other factors rather than LOT. The success of abbreviated programs in training competent thoracic surgeons has not yet been determined. Given that LOT does not appear to affect applications to surgical specialty, we may be able to maintain applications to the specialty without compromising LOT.
