3-5 years? ugh... I want it now (as I'm sure everybody else does). when are clinical trials? With clinical trials must you have one of the diseases specified? IF you are idiopathic are you out of luck?

sorry, one more question. I see this drug is for diabetic or sarcoidoisis neuropathy. does that mean it won't work on other types of neuropathy? Wouldn't trials want to be done on many different types of neuropathy? Why only those two? Sorry, I don't understand much about this stuff

This drug is being tried in the US. Does anybody know how drugs come to Canada? In general, if drugs are approved in the US are they approved in Canada around the same time? Or does it take years for to see it in Canada?

It would be used off label if positive results were seen with other neuropathies.

I work at a very large contract research company and we are doing things now to make clinical trials faster and more efficient the future. There is just so much time, money, and waste that has to go into the process. It's very frustrating. |

I use clinicaltrials.gov to check out what studies are ongoing for any given drug.

I hope this drug can be used sooner rather than later

For the clinical trials there is a very exact inclusion/exclusion criteria. It depends on what indications they are looking to have on the final label. Phase 3 trials test the drug on individuals that have the disease that they are looking to treat.
