Compassionate use

Under rare circumstances, a patient may be offered a therapy which is not yet authorised for their condition, outside the context of a clinical trial. This is a special case called compassionate use.

The compassionate use exception only applies to individuals living with a life-threatening, long-lasting, or debilitating condition, with no approved therapy, who cannot enter clinical trials.

The laws around compassionate use vary between countries.
