Not the cheeriest of themes for the festive season but I do need to ask if anyone has had any experience of clinical research into new treatments for terminal illness?
My mum has stage 4 (terminal) cancer, as I have mentioned before. She has been asked to participate in a phase 1 research programme where she will be administered the new drug/treatment alongside chemo,
Most sites say some people will benefit with phase 1 treatments, thats the good news but many won't.
So... Worth the risk or best to avoid?
Thanks in advance for any help
