内容説明

Introducing New Treatments for Cancer Practical, Ethical and Legal Problems Edited by C.J. Williams CRC Medical Oncology Unit Southampton University Hospitals Southampton, UK The search for a cure for cancer continues to place enormous demands on researchers and clinicians to investigate, identify and develop new and more effective forms of treatment. However, there are numerous ethical, legal and economic dilemmas in this field, many viewpoints and vested interests. Changes in funding, the increasing direct involvement of the pharmaceutical industry, the escalating costs of research (and consequently of the drugs themselves) have become major concerns for those developing new treatments. The aim of this book is to draw attention to these complex problems by promoting awareness and dialogue amongst those most closely involved - whether researcher, clinician, pharmaceutical company, or politician - with a view to redefining the role of clinical research. An international cast list of lawyers, ethicists, social scientists, statisticians, pharmacologists, journal editors, pharmaceutical company physicians, radiotherapists, medical oncologists and specialists in continuing care, discuss and debate the issues in a book which is not just for these groups but for anyone with a part to play in the conquest of cancer.
