As everybody knows that clinical trials in the medical field are conducted to prove the safety and efficiency of the specific drug before it peeps into the outside world. It is general rule of thumb for the volunteers to satisfy certain credentials to participate in the clinical trial. At times few patients jump start these rules and get the unapproved medication to treat their ill diseases by participating in the clinical trial. This method using the un approved drug is known as compassionate drug. This is taken as the last choice by the patients for their un cured diseases. These drugs are scientifically tested, but not approved by the FDA. Usage of the compassionate drug is legal but is only restricted to people who meets certain conditions.
The compassionate drug will be experimented on the people only with the advice of the expert investigator. The participant has to get the approval from the sponsor regarding the experiment of the drug on the participant. The expanded accesses of the drug will be approved only when the drug proves its efficiency in the clinical trial in treating particular diseases.
