Expanded access is expanding a phase II / III trial to more patients, even if they do not meet the profile the company wants for the trial but not including them in the trial group per se.

Also, it is allowing patients to opt to keep taking the drug after the initial trial and even in combination as a cocktail formula. The company produces the amount of drug necessary to allow this to happen.

GNE is the only company I know who does this currently (All the others are probably worried about liability). IMCL and others need to step up to the plate on this issue.

A "no liability" contract, binding to and signed by the family of the patient and/or their heirs, would cover their back sides.

-IMO-

Good trading,
