CHICAGO—The American Society of Clinical Oncology announced June 1 that it will move forward with its first-ever clinical trial, a study designed to offer patients with advanced cancer access to molecularly-targeted cancer drugs and to collect data on clinical outcomes to learn the best uses of these drugs outside of FDA-approved indications.
A group of melanoma experts, joined by three advocacy groups focused on melanoma, has engaged FDA in a public discussion of the challenges of developing new drugs in the refractory setting and the role crossover can play in such trials.
