Your link worked perfectly and shows that Niraoarib has been approved by NICE for use in the UK for women with Ovarian Cancer!

This is wonderful and welcome news.

Hooray!

Thanks for letting us know,

Kind regards,

Laura

I was just reading about this on ‘Target Ovarian Cancer’, Niparib is now currently available WEF today until 2020 during which period they will study the stats. Hopefully these statistics will support the continuation of its use. It isn’t available in a Northern Ireland presently but hopefully that will soon be remedied.

Fantastic news and gratifying that new treatments are being brought into use so more of us can fight this dreadful disease.

Thank you for sharing the link. Keep as well as you possibly can be ❤️Xx Jane

What brilliant news !

I wrote to NICE about this a while ago and recently received a very nice but not too optimistic reply. I thought it would not be approved so it is great to be completely wrong.

Thank you for posting
