Do you have any evidence that the CDR was slow with it? It comes to the CDR after Health Canada approval; that's usually for a drug that is pretty new and where the manufacturer has applied. In other words, I don't know whether the length of time that Tarceva took to go through the process was normal for a new drug, or whether there was some undue delay and it was just your mother's bad luck to need it exactly when she did, before it was really approved.
