Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, one of the least common types of cancer globally, currently lacks an FDA-approved medication for its treatment.
However, there are drugs available that show potential in treating ACC. The “Right to Try” policy, implemented during Trump’s presidency, allows patients to use off-label drugs if a doctor believes they could be effective, offering an alternative to giving up hope. With the right to try some insurance companies would pay for those drugs. Some patients have beaten ACC or extended their lives with off-label drugs.
I guess this another policy being undone by the Biden administration. Only the rich will be able to afford treatment now.
MEGA Bump and Amen!
