How doctors welcome EPROPA
"Two years and half have already gone since the launch of the EPROPA program and we are pleased to announce that a new center in Romania, the Centrul de Oncologie Oncohelp in Timisoara has obtained the Ethics Committee approval and will be part of this network. So several centers are already active and offer this opportunity to their patients. As always, many patients have contacted us, involving their centers of cure and we are pleased to have been of support in the diagnostic and therapeutic approach. During these years we have been able to identify target molecular alterations in many of the samples examined and the number of patients benefiting from EPROPA, by accessing a clinical trial available in another center, out of their place of residence has increased at 12 people”
