The new multiple myeloma drug, called selinexor, will be marketed by Karyopharm Therapeutics under the brand name Xpovio.

For Chris sake if you’re dying from MM whats the hell! Maybe the studies will lead to less toxic version so your children ‘s childrens will survive! Thank you Mr Trump for giving us the opportunity to choose our own destiny and not the FDA…
My understanding is that some patient deaths during the trials were attributed to the toxicity of the drug. A drug ain’t much good if it kills you before it cures you.
