Checklist for prioritizing/recommending studies:
-Data – what’s most likely to help?
-Whatever we do first – we leave as many doors open down the line to make sure it won’t preclude you from other treatment
-What is the impact on the trial? Side effects, logistics. Biopsies, PKs, etc.
-Feasibility - travel
-
Questions:
-Is there any published data?
-How long has the study been open ?
-Is there placebo involved?
-Is there a stipend for commuting costs?
-What are common side effects that you have noticed in recent patients?
-Are there any patients at your site currently participating?
-Is this my best option right now?
