Chapter 38: Academician Qi is saved, but the FDA is blocked

Jian Guohua failed to push the medicine and returned angrily, but he didn't take it to heart.

After all, there are too many family members who do not cry without seeing the coffin.

Family members don't know how to treat diseases, but they have their own ideas. If they don't have absolute trust in doctors, they will often be stubborn.

Especially family members with some status and wealth always want the best, and think that the most expensive is the best, and foreign medicines are also particularly fragrant.

Free drug trials could be a huge boon for ordinary patients.

But for picky family members, it means unreliability, many side effects, being a guinea pig, etc. After all, in their eyes, no matter how expensive an anti-cancer drug is, as long as it is a commercially available drug, it is just easy to get.

Things are often unexpected.

Three days later, at two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Jian Guohua was suddenly awakened by the ringing of the phone.

There was a hasty shout on the phone.

"Director Jian, it's not good. Academician Qi's condition has suddenly worsened, and he is about to die. The family members are crying and asking you to have an operation. Please come here immediately!"

Jian Guohua is almost 60, and he has been able to hold the position of department director of a top hospital for so many years, all thanks to the famous name of a knife in Haishi. After turning 50, in the face of customers from all over the country, he has only been the chief surgeon for critically ill patients.

Fortunately, he lived nearby and rushed to the hospital in a hurry.

Outside the operating room, when Qi Yeting and his wife saw him, they rushed forward immediately, crying sobbingly.

"Director Jian, you must save my dad, he still has a wish. Woooooo..."

Jian Guohua patted the family member's arm lightly, and said solemnly: "I will do my best."

Then strode into the operating room.

Looking at his disappearing back, Qi Yeting was full of remorse in his heart. He knew that he should not have insisted on conservative treatment, and should have undergone surgical resection early in the morning. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret now.

Outside the operating room, family members are sitting on a blanket of needles, living like years.

It's hard to wait until the sun rises.

A ray of sunlight came in from the window, and the door of the operating room suddenly opened.

Jian Guohua walked out with a tired face, and was immediately surrounded by family members.

He smiled slightly and said, "The tumor has been removed, and the patient's physical condition is stable. As long as the prognosis is good, he should be fine."

The family members were instantly ecstatic and hugged together to thank God.

Jian Guohua returned home yawning and fell asleep.

However, he didn't sleep for long, and was awakened by the phone call again.

"What? Academician Qi's signs suddenly dropped, and he has already entered the ICU? How could this happen?"

His eyes were red, he couldn't believe his ears, and roared loudly.

"Obviously everything went well in the operation, have you found out the reason?"

"What? Before the operation, the cancer cells had already started to metastasize to the brain. After the operation, it was found that the cancer cells had metastasized to the brain, which led to a sudden deterioration of the condition, and the patient was already unconscious."

"Grass!" Jian Guohua couldn't help but burst into national curses, he jumped up and rushed to the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) before he could put on his socks.

Qi Yeting was crying outside the ward, tears streaming down his face, he rushed over when he saw Jian Guohua.

Jian Guohua thought that the family members were going to make trouble with the doctor, so he took three steps back and said defensively, "Calm down! Calm down! It's not the last step yet."

Unexpectedly, Qi Yeting didn't care, rushed up to hug Jian Guohua and cried bitterly.

"Director Jian, I was wrong. I should have let the old man have the operation, so that the advanced cancer cells would not be delayed. I am unfilial!"

He slapped himself hard several times, his face was red and swollen, mixed with tears, and he looked extremely remorseful.

Mrs. Qi also rushed over and wailed loudly: "The old man is gone, what should we do, ah, I don't want to live anymore."

Jian Guohua shook his head and sighed, "My condolences."

Mrs. Qi raised her head suddenly, as if grabbing a life-saving straw.

"Director Jian, last time you said that there is a domestic anti-cancer drug that works very well, can you give the old man another try?"

A string of question marks suddenly appeared on Jian Guohua's head, and he was about to say something.

Qi Yeting suddenly grabbed his hands and said with bright eyes: "That's right, Director Jian, the old man is going to die anyway, no matter what medicine, we have to try it. Quickly prescribe it!"

Jian Guohua couldn't laugh or cry at once, you didn't want it at the beginning, but now you want to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

If I knew today, why did I take the medicine earlier, maybe I have gotten better, and there is no need for surgery.

However, he is not sure whether the anti-cancer drug Sanqing is as good as it is said, and now that Academician Qi is almost on his deathbed, there is no precedent for such a critically ill patient to be cured.

He has to vaccinate his family members well, so as not to make trouble again when the cure is not cured.

So he comforted him earnestly: "Don't worry, I'll give Academician Qi this medicine right now, but the ugly words come first, and our hospital doesn't dare to guarantee the effect, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Qi Yeting's face was red and swollen with tears, and he ignored it: "It's all like this, no matter what medicine, even if there is a glimmer of hope, we have to try it anyway. Even if it doesn't work, our children have done their best, so the old man is gone Only then can we feel at ease.”

Mrs. Qi also nodded quickly.

"Okay, then here is a clinical drug trial document, please come and sign it."

After Jian Guohua finished his explanation, he walked back to the office with the documents signed by his family members, and made a phone call with a serious face.

"Yu Yun, it's an emergency, hurry up and bring the anti-cancer drugs, Academician Qi is waiting in the ICU."

Two hours later, Jian Lianyun arrived in a hurry.

Because the patient was unconscious, anticancer drugs were intravenously injected into Academician Qi's body.

Time passed slowly, and Jian Guohua, father and daughter, were waiting outside the ICU with their family members. At this time, he finally felt the feelings of his family members. It really felt like years.

Three hours later, the nurse rushed out of the ICU, shouting in surprise.

"Director Jian, the patient's symptoms have recovered, and the medicine is working."

Another three hours later, this time it was the doctor who rushed out of the ICU with a very excited face.

"Director Jian, the patient's symptoms have stabilized and have not continued to deteriorate. What kind of medicine is this? It's simply amazing."

Jian Guohua was relieved, and said with a smile: "A new domestic anti-cancer drug, I didn't expect the effect to be so good."

Qi Yeting and his wife were very pleasantly surprised, and they said convincingly: "I never thought that the domestic medicine is so strong now, which is really impressive. Director Jian, I'm sorry, we were really wrong, and we should have listened to you back then."

Jian Guohua waved his hand calmly: "It's okay, it's not too late to be rescued, you can rest assured now. Everyone is tired during this period, so go and rest for a while, I believe Academician Qi will recover soon. "

"Well," Qi Yeting nodded, he is now obeying Jian Guohua's words: "Director Jian is right, we listen to you, go to rest first, and come back later."

*****

Eagle Country, FDA headquarters, the person in charge Qiao Sen is drinking coffee leisurely.

The blond, blue-eyed, hot secretary walked into the office and put a pile of documents on the desk.

"Mr. Qiao Sen, this is an application document for a new anti-cancer drug from Pfizer, and it needs to be dealt with urgently."

Qiao Sen stretched out his hand and patted the secretary's back, feeling the elasticity of his fingertips, opened the folder with reminiscence, and looked lazily.

He is very familiar with Pfizer, and he has heard of this anticancer drug, but he heard it from Merck.

Just a few days ago, Merck's top management secretly approached him, hinting very vaguely that there is an oriental anticancer drug that wants to pass the FDA review and be launched in Eagle Country.

Although it is represented and operated through Pfizer, it will also have a certain impact on Merck's anticancer drug market.

This is a serious damage to the interests of Yingguo's pharmaceutical companies and a blow to Yingguo's high-tech industry. It is very detrimental to Yingguo's reputation and very politically incorrect.

For the sake of happy cooperation for so many years, the other party hoped that he could delay the approval process as much as possible.

After all, it is a free market. It’s not that you are not allowed to go public. It’s just a matter of slowing down, finding more mistakes, and stricter review of side effects. After all, the stricter requirements for drugs from the backward pharmaceutical industry in the East are also for Eagle Country. responsible for the lives of the people.

Under the awe-inspiring persuasion of the other party, he accepted the friendly suggestion of the other party frankly. After all, he obtained his current position with the support of a congressman behind Merck.

However, he didn't want to offend Pfizer, a giant pharmaceutical company, so he decided to temporarily adopt the tactic of procrastinating.

"Hehe," he skimmed through the document and threw it in a corner, "Just pretend I didn't see it. Anyway, as the person in charge of the FDA, I'm very busy with work, so I missed one or two documents. It's also reasonable."

Two days later, the blond secretary suddenly started urging him.

"Mr. Jossen, Pfizer's vice president, Andre, has called several times to ask how the approval process for anti-cancer drugs is going."

Qiao Sen lowered his head and drank his coffee with milk froth on his mouth: "Tell him, it will take at least a week or two."

The secretary said again: "Mr. Andre asked if you were free. He wanted to invite you to dinner?"

Qiao Sen chuckled: "Why? He's in such a hurry?"

Immediately, I made a small calculation in my heart. It seems that Pfizer attaches great importance to this drug and wants to rush to market it. Is there any opportunity to gain some benefits from it.

However, he soon remembered the benefactor behind him, who seemed to be on the same side as Pfizer, and cold sweat broke out on his face.

"Reject him, tell him I'm not available, and don't tell me his phone number in the future."

Qiao Sen looked at his secretary and said firmly.

On the other side of the phone, after being rejected twice in a row, Andre also recalled it in his heart.

Pfizer and the FDA have always cooperated happily, and he and Qiao Sen are also old acquaintances.

The opponent suddenly avoided him, and Pfizer's other new drugs were not blocked.

Only this new anti-cancer drug comes from an oriental pharmaceutical company, and it needs to provide more clinical data, and the reason for the stricter requirements has been delayed.

These reasons are very legitimate, so that he cannot refute or complain.

Although anyone can see that these reasons are nonsense, there must be an ulterior transaction behind it.

But seeing the time go by day by day, he was suddenly helpless.

"boom!"

Andre slammed the ashtray on the table onto the carpet with an angry expression on his face.

"Damn it, it must be Merck and Roche behind it. They funded the Congressman behind that shit Jonson."

"It seems that we can only tell Wei that the FDA's listing will definitely be delayed for a while."

"I can only try my best to find other connections and see if there is any turning point."

He dialed Wei Kang helplessly.
