The challenge to researchers and clinicians today is that a lot
of the low hanging fruits, so to speak, has been picked. We’re
being held to standards which are extremely challenging. So, a study
that has to do thousands of patients is an enormous undertaking.
A lot of women have to be willing to step up to the plate to do
these studies, and the doctors have to play ball.
