The Paris prosecutor's office opened an investigation into what French Health Minister Marisol Touraine called "an accident of exceptional gravity" at a clinical trial lab in the western French city of Rennes. The trial involved 90 healthy volunteers who were given the experimental drug in varying doses at different times, she told reporters at a news conference in Rennes. Six male volunteers between 28 and 49 years old have since been hospitalized, including one man now classified as brain dead, Touraine said, adding that the other 83 volunteers were being contacted. Calling the case "unprecedented," Touraine said she was "deeply moved" by the suffering of the victims, who she met with earlier Friday, along with their families. "We'll do everything to understand what happened," she said. "I don't know of any other event like this." less then 50% [ link to bigstory.ap.org] |
