| Core Tip |
Off-label use is defined by the prescription of a marketed drug outside the conditions described in the summary of product characteristics. This review is the first one focussing on the off-label use of targeted therapies in oncology. When compared with older agents, off-label use of targeted therapies is probably more rational through tumoral genotyping but is faced with a limited clinical support, reimbursement challenges related to the very high pricing and the cost of genotyping or molecular profiling, when applicable.
