What is the Expanded Access Program?

Expanded Access Programs (in the US), also known as compassionate use
(in the EU), allow the use of investigational products that have not yet received
marketing authorization as a potential treatment option for patients suffering
from severe or life-threatening conditions for whom satisfactory effects from
existing treatments are not expected.
It aims to offer a last treatment opportunity to patients for whom existing
therapies are ineffective, allowing for the limited use of investigational
products under the responsibility of the attending physician.
