St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Single-Patient EA Policies/Criteria Expanded access is used to describe treatment with an investigational product for a patient with a serious or life-threatening illness or condition when there are no comparable or satisfactory alternative treatments available and the patient is not eligible for a clinical trial. These investigational products are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The expanded access pathway is often used by commercial pharmaceutical companies to provide their products before they are approved. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (St. Jude) is dedicated to its mission of advancing cures for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. St. Jude provides the best possible care for our patients. We also make discoveries that will lead to better treatment for children and young adults around the world. We accomplish this by offering patients participation in clinical trials such as the LVXSCID-ND study (NCT01512888). St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is not a commercial pharmaceutical company and does not have the capability to manufacture products at an industrial level. Supplies of the investigational product for the LVXSCID-ND study are limited and earmarked for the completion of a prospective research guided clinical trial. At this time, the safety and efficacy of the product is under investigation. St. Jude is not able to provide the investigational product in the LVXSCID-ND study for expanded access. If your child has been diagnosed with X-Linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID-X1), please contact the physician below to discuss possible treatment options.
