European Medical Advisory Committee Does Not Recommend Approval Of Avastin For Deadly Form Of Brain Cancer

We don’t like sharing bad news but sometimes we have to. This is another blow to get Avastin approved for use in the UK. We receive so many requests from patients who are not only struggling with the heartache that a brain tumour diagnosis brings, but are then faced with battling for funding for Avastin. We know it isn’t a cure, but it can give extra precious months for families to do and say all the things they need and want to.
