Comments
An Interesting Reflection on N.I.C.E. was that when I entered Nexavar in the search on 'Guidance' on Their Web Site on 2007.06.23 the result shown was:
You searched for: Nexavar
Between January 1999 and June 2007
No results found.
An Interesting Reflection on N.I.C.E. was that when I entered Sutent in the search on 'Guidance' on Their Web Site on 2007.06.23 the result shown was:
You searched for: Sutent
Between January 1999 and June 2007
No results found.
However there was a document in .pdf format available (The Same One) in the general search when one entered Sutent or Nexavar - perhaps you might care to read this 'pearl of wisdom' merely [Click Here]
You will however be pleased to note there is a huge amount of information loaded at great cost telling us all of the magnificence of N.I.C.E. frankly I incline to see this as little more than an excercise in self service typical of most QUANGOs though I do concede the number of people dying whilst they 'polish' their web sites and seek to justify their expenditure may cloud my judgement a tad.
