After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 16 Phase II clinical data released!

"Are you telling the truth?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yang walked directly over from the nurses' station and stood in front of Li Bing.

Li Bing was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and nodded repeatedly.

"Of course it's true! I'm from Miancheng, the city next to Rongcheng. If you can really let me enter the first phase of the clinical trial, I am willing to pay for the travel expenses myself. I don't want any additional subsidies. I just want to take the medicine for three months as soon as possible!"

After Li Bing said this, everyone naturally noticed Zhang Yang, and soon everyone guessed his identity.

"That's right, boss. As long as you can start the Phase III trial as soon as possible and let my child be the first to take the drug, I don't want your subsidy!"

"Me too, I would like to!"

"Yes, I heard that this medicine sells for more than 7000 yuan a box. The cost of medicine for three months is more than 3 yuan. Why would you want a bicycle?"

Zhang Yang heard everyone's unanimous words, which made him feel relaxed and happy.

"Okay, in that case, everyone please leave your contact information."

"Once the Phase III trial begins, I will call you personally!"

"it is good!"

The small turmoil in the hematology emergency room soon subsided, and Zhang Yang truly realized that "Qingshan Avatrombopag" had really spread among the patients.

However, this little episode was not completely resolved, and the news soon reached the ears of all the doctors in the department.

During the lunch break, several doctors who were on duty that day had a discussion in the outpatient office.

"Teacher Ren, do you think these patients are too crazy?"

"I don't deny that Qingshan Avatrombopag does have some effect, but it's not to this extent, right?"

"So many patients are begging pharmaceutical companies to let them go to Phase II, and they are even asking for a free spot in Phase III without asking for a cent. This is really unheard of."

The first person to speak was the attending physician, Yang Tao, and the teacher in charge was Ren Xiaoyang, another associate chief physician in the outpatient department.

Ren Xiaoyang nodded slightly and took over the conversation.

“Indeed, I find it incredible too.”

"And I recently took a look at the patient group of our hospital. Several patients who participated in the Phase II trial even said that they are completely cured and can stop taking the medicine and live like normal people."

"Oh, that's ridiculous. Aplastic anemia can't be cured except with a transplant. Even with a transplant, it's possible for the disease to relapse, and you have to take medication for a long time!"

"If you ask me, the reason they are exaggerating so much now is mostly just their own psychological effects..."

"I'm afraid the real therapeutic effect of this new drug is just that..."

Having said this, he paused, looked at the other doctor in the office, and his tone became respectful.

"Director Hu, what do you think?"

Director Hu is about the same age as Ren Xiaoyang, but he is already a chief physician with a senior professional title, and is a core backbone even in the city.

He smiled slightly, then put down the pen in his hand and said slowly:

"I have a different opinion. I think the behavior of these patients is actually normal and completely understandable."

The two of them were stunned for a moment, a hint of confusion appearing on their faces.

"You two can think about it carefully. What kind of medicine do we usually prescribe in our outpatient clinic?"

"It's Compound Soap and Alum Pills, Platelet-raising Capsules, Stanozolol, and Danazol!"

"That's right. They used to take Compound Alum Pills at 50 yuan a box, Platelet-raising Capsules at 40 yuan a box, and Stanozolol at 90 yuan a box!"

"What medicine are they taking now?" "They are taking Qingshan Avatrombopag, which has the same effect as the 7600 yuan high-priced medicine!"

"It used to take three months of medication for the red blood cell count to reach 30, but now it only takes half a month. How can they not be happy?"

"In the past, blood transfusions and platelet transfusions were needed to barely maintain normal platelet counts. Now, taking medication for a month can bring it close to normal values ​​and can be stable for a long time. Do you think they will not be excited and look forward to it?"

"Don't talk about them. If I were a patient, I would also be looking forward to it and be excited. Why?!"

"Because I've never used it before, and I've never even heard of a medicine with such obvious effects!"

The two were stunned, especially the first sentence: "What kind of medicines are prescribed when we are in the outpatient clinic?" It was simply deafening.

Indeed, what medicine could these patients take before?

They are just some of the most basic and conservative treatment drugs!

Now, it has suddenly been upgraded from the most basic drug to the world's top drug. This shock is unimaginable!

"As for the real clinical effect of this new drug..."

Director Hu paused and looked at Ren Xiaoyang who had asked the question just now.

"Teacher Ren, if you want me to talk about the effect of traditional drug combination therapy, I have the right to speak, but this 'Avatrombopag'... I haven't even come into contact with a few patients taking 'Avatrombopag Tablets', let alone long-term clinical follow-up."

"So, I don't think I'm qualified to comment on this drug right now."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ren Xiaoyang's face turned red, and he recognized Director Hu's voice-over.

The attending physician who spoke first also lowered his head slightly after hearing this, his eyes solemn, and he was obviously touched.

Director Hu is telling the truth!

Think about it carefully, let alone the patients, do these frontline doctors really know a lot about Avatrombopag Tablets?

Everyone knows that Avatrombopag Tablets is a good medicine, but we have only heard or read about what is good about it, how good it is, how to use it in combination with other medicines, and the effects after taking the medicine.

No, not even Avatrombopag!
At present, there are not many papers on the combination use of "Eltrombopag" in China, not to mention how rich clinical drug use experience a large number of primary care doctors have!
Given this actual situation, what qualifications do we have to evaluate the effectiveness of this new drug?

At this moment, Ren Xiaoyang also reacted, and the smile on his face turned into seriousness.

He looked at Director Hu and said seriously:
"Director, I understand."

"I always thought I had some knowledge of Eltrombopag and Ava, but when I think about it carefully, this knowledge only comes from some foreign papers and literature!"

"It seems that I have to be more pragmatic. It is not only the patients who should pay attention to this new drug, but also the frontline doctors like us!"

Director Hu nodded and smiled, then he sighed:
"I also look forward to this drug passing Phase III as soon as possible. As long as the price is right, it will definitely be a great thing for our domestic patients."

"The clinical use of drugs for blood diseases in our country has been 'suffering from Qin for a long time'."

……

While Director Hu and others were discussing, on the other side, Zhang Yang urgently removed all promotional materials for Phase II clinical trial recruitment, and officially announced the end of Phase II clinical trial recruitment for "Qingshan Avatrombopag".

But then, a new problem emerged.

Should the Phase II clinical trial data of Qingshan Avatrombopag be released to the public?

Zhang Yang had almost no hesitation.

At nine o'clock in the morning on the second day after the recruitment, the National Drug Clinical Trial Website suddenly updated the data of the Phase II clinical trial...

As soon as the data came out, the industry was shocked!
