The New Jersey Right to Try for Individualized Treatments Act permits patients with life-threatening or severely debilitating illnesses to request individualized investigational treatments from eligible facilities or manufacturers. To qualify, patients must have considered all FDA-approved treatment options, received a prescription for the investigational treatment from a licensed physician, and provided informed, written consent. If the patient is a minor or lacks capacity, a parent or legal guardian may provide consent.
