New drug for blood cancer a 'game-changer'
Sunday Express
|November 24, 2024
PATIENTS with a rare and deadly form of blood cancer have been "given a second chance" by a game-changing new drug.
The treatment, known as Avapritinib, has been approved by the Government's drug watchdog after trials showed a third of those receiving a course were given the disease all-clear. And almost all other patients experienced "significant improvements" in both signs and symptoms of their cancer.
Avapritinib has been recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence for hundreds of adults with rare advanced systemic mastocytosis.
