I really don't want to be a doctor

Chapter 475 Suspension of clinical trials?

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Fancheng Tumor Hospital.

"Doctor, how is my mother?"

In the doctor's office, Liu Xiaomei was anxiously waiting for Feng Linxing's reply.

It happened that Feng Linxing was on the night shift tonight, and Liu Shufen suddenly fell ill.

"It's hard to say." Feng Linxing pondered. "According to the treatment plan, today is the second day of the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Logically speaking, such serious side effects should not occur. So I feel that it is most likely not a side effect of the drug." , but the progress of your mother's condition."

"The progress of the disease..." Liu Xiaomei lowered her head and bit her lower lip lightly.

In the past four years, in the hospital, she has received countless notices of critical illness.

For a patient with an advanced tumor, every day he survives is a miracle.

"This time, your mother's condition suddenly deteriorated. I preliminarily judged that it was the progress of the condition, including the fatigue during this period." Feng Linxing said.

"Thank you, Dr. Feng, I understand." Liu Xiaomei nodded.

"Don't be too nervous." Feng Linxing said, "At present, your mother's condition is stable, and she is out of danger for the time being. However, if there are dangerous complications such as lung cancer hemorrhage, she needs to be transferred to the ICU for further treatment at any time..."

Liu Xiaomei could only silently accept the more routine conversation.

In less than 10 minutes, Jing Xiaoran had already arrived at the cancer hospital.

After receiving oxygen inhalation and a series of treatments, Liu Shufen has calmed down without obvious breathing difficulties.

"Xiao Ran, you are here."

In the corridor of the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Zhu Xianqing was already waiting.

As the overall person in charge of the entire clinical experiment, he rushed to the scene as soon as possible when there was a problem with the experimental patient.

"Mr. Zhu, send me the test report of Aunt Liu before the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors." Jing Xiaoran said.

"Well, I'm ready." Zhu Xianqing handed all the inspection reports to Jing Xiaoran, "Before the clinical experiment, Liu Shufen's physical condition was pretty stable..."

Jing Xiaoran carefully read all the auxiliary examination reports. According to the current situation, the sudden deterioration of Liu Shufen's condition should not be a side effect of "immune checkpoint inhibitors".

However, according to the treatment plans of most clinical trials, once the experimental patients have serious changes in their condition, all experiments need to be suspended immediately.

Coming to the ward, Jing Xiaoran saw Liu Xiaomei.

Liu Xiaomei was beside the bed, taking care of her mother all the time.

Jing Xiaoran nodded slightly towards Xiaomei, signaling her to come outside the ward.

Outside the hallway of the ward.

"Xiaomei, although we are currently considering that it is not a side effect of the drug, we cannot completely rule out the effect of the drug." Jing Xiaoran said, "So we can only suspend the clinical trial for now."

Liu Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, "Xiao Ran, what do you mean, my mother doesn't use your new medicine?"

Jing Xiaoran nodded.

"If you don't use the new medicine, what will you do in the future?" Liu Xiaomei said.

"We can only prepare other treatment plans after my aunt's condition is stable." Jing Xiaoran said, "Because we can't completely rule out that this is a change in the condition caused by the side effects of the drug."

"But...but..." Liu Xiaomei stared blankly at Jing Xiaoran, with a dazed and helpless expression, "If you don't continue the treatment, then my mother...she..."

If you don't treat it, you will die.

With treatment, there may still be a chance.

Jing Xiaoran looked at Liu Xiaomei in front of him, and he understood her feelings very well, just like when he faced Xiaoxiao back then.

"Xiao Ran, I...what should I do?"

Looking at the tearful Liu Xiaomei, Jing Xiaoran sighed slightly in his heart.

"Xiaomei, no matter what, the current immunotherapy must be suspended." Jing Xiaoran said.

Liu Xiaomei's complexion darkened, her eyes revealing infinite sadness.

But at this time, Jing Xiaoran changed the topic.

"But if the aunt's condition is stable, we may be able to continue the immunotherapy..."

Before Jing Xiaoran finished speaking, Zhu Xianqing wanted to stop him, "Xiao Ran, this is against the rules..."

"Mr. Zhu, I have my own ideas." Jing Xiaoran raised his hand to stop it.

Seeing this, Zhu Xianqing could only remain silent.

According to normal procedures, in order to protect patients, and even more to protect ourselves, it is extremely necessary to suspend the laboratory.

"Xiaomei, don't worry, since I gave you hope four years ago, four years later, I will definitely do my best." Jing Xiaoran said to Liu Xiaomei solemnly.

Liu Xiaomei raised her head, looked at Jing Xiaoran, and thought of that afternoon four years ago.

Jing Xiaoran stood in front of her, and personally said the words "immune checkpoint inhibitor" to him.

Treatment is often more than simply treating a disease.

More importantly, to comfort, to heal a person.

In the despair in Liu Xiaomei's eyes, a glimmer of hope slowly rose again.

"Xiaomei, but I still want to tell you that Auntie's condition has progressed to a very serious stage." Jing Xiaoran said, "You must be mentally prepared at any time."

Liu Xiaomei wiped away her tears and said, "Xiao Ran, I know what you said. I just want to do my best to treat my mother, and I don't want to suffer that helpless feeling."

"En." Jing Xiaoran patted Liu Xiaomei on the shoulder easily, "I will communicate with the hospital at any time, and you don't have to worry about the treatment cost, our experimental team will be fully responsible."

……

Walking out of the gate of the cancer hospital, Zhu Xianqing and Jing Xiaoran walked side by side on the main road.

"Xiao Ran, although I understand that you have an unusual relationship with this experimental patient, if we force the clinical experiment, if something goes wrong, it will be a big blow to our experiment!" Zhu Xianqing said.

Jing Xiaoran understood what he meant.

Once Liu Shufen's condition deteriorates and finally dies, there will be one more death in the cases of their clinical trials.

This will definitely have a big impact on the clinical trials of the entire Shenzhou laboratory.

What's more, this does not conform to the rules of clinical trials.

"Ms. Zhu, I know what you mean." Jing Xiaoran said, "But I promised Liu Xiaomei. For Aunt Liu, there is no other drug that is effective for her condition. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are her last resort." The root rice is a life-saving straw."

"Xiao Ran, it's only this time." Zhu Xianqing said, "Otherwise, if it doesn't follow the rules, it will be a big blow to our clinical experiment."

If the number of cases included in the clinical experiment is all patients with advanced tumors and who are about to die, it will be difficult for the entire experiment to have practical clinical significance.

"En." Jing Xiaoran nodded.

"Oh, by the way, Xiao Ran, have you read the report on AstraZeneca's clinical trials recently?" Zhu Xianqing asked.
