Abstract
We compare the clinical trial success rates of products receiving US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accelerated approval (AA) to those approved without using this pathway. Our findings raise important questions about how the AA pathway can best optimize early access to therapeutics that are ultimately proven safe and effective.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Cell is a journal that focuses on promoting major advances in cancer research and oncology. The primary criteria for considering manuscripts are as follows:
Major advances: Manuscripts should provide significant advancements in answering important questions related to naturally occurring cancers.
Translational research: The journal welcomes translational research, which involves the application of basic scientific findings to human health and clinical practice.
Clinical investigations: Cancer Cell is interested in publishing clinical investigations that contribute to establishing new paradigms in the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of cancers.
Insights into cancer biology: The journal values clinical investigations that provide important insights into cancer biology beyond what has been revealed by preclinical studies.
Mechanism-based proof-of-principle studies: Cancer Cell encourages the publication of mechanism-based proof-of-principle clinical studies, which demonstrate the feasibility of a specific therapeutic approach or diagnostic test.
