Rethinking Cancer Drug Dosing Aims Lower Doses Sooner
Patients and doctors push to shift from maximum tolerated dose to identifying the lowest effective dose for new cancer drugs. The FDA backs broader early dose finding under Project Optimus to minimize harmful side effects as advances extend survival for many with incurable cancers. Jill Feldman, 54, of Deerfield Illinois, embodies the tradeoffs and seeks safer, effective dosing. Her experience shows lower doses can still control disease while reducing pain and fatigue. The shift contrasts with traditional chemotherapy which relies on aggression. new targeted therapies may need only modest doses to block cancer drivers.
