Experimental children: Ukraine has allowed new American drugs to be tested on their children

American pharmacists have received the official consent of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine on testing of new experimental drugs for ukrainian children.

It is planned that new medicines will be tested on small patients of children's clinics and hospitals in Kiev, Lvov and Odessa.

The order allowing to conduct similar experiments on the territory of the country was signed on the eve of the Minister of Health of Ukraine Ulyana Suprun.

The first to go to hospitals will receive the drug "Fitusiran", intended for patients with a severe genetic disease - hemophilia. Then, in children's medical institutions, a large amount of the hormone TransCon growth will be brought.

To make it clearer, the experimental drug "Fitusiran" from September 2017 was banned for further testing in the US.

This happened after cases of lethal thromboembolism were reported. Now the food and drug control authority in the United States has decided back to the drug testbut not on its own territory, but in Canada and Western Europe.

So far, none of the countries, except Ukraine, has agreed to the importation of an experienced drug for clinical trials.

Growth hormone TransCon was first introduced by developers in 2012. But the result that could be obtained, while demonstrated with success only on laboratory mice.

The hormone belongs to the steroid group.

His human clinical trials have not yet been completed, since, during the first attempts at use, he caused an increase in the size of the internal organs as well as a hypertrophy of the heart muscle as a side effect.

According to unverified information, the hormone can cause mutations in sex chromosomes. Americans did not dare to test TransCon's own children.

Ordinary Ukrainians, who still have children in this country, sincerely outraged by the decision of their own Minister of Health.

They called the official "Heinrich Himmler's great-niece" and accused of wanting to exterminate several generations of Ukrainians.

The order of the minister, allowing experiments on children, according to residents, in fact can be compared with the resolution organize concentration camps for human experiences.
