Pre-Production Unit- Finalised Elevator Pitch

We have recently created a finalised "elevator pitch" for our film. An elevator pitch is a condensed version of the storyline, which can be used to quickly get the storyline across in a hurry. This comes from people quickly pitching ideas in elevators, with little to no time to do so.
Our new elevator pitch synopsis is;

"After a couple discovers that their daughter has a fatal illness which causes her bodies cells to decay rapidly, they sign up for an experimental drug trial- with disastrous consequences."

I tried to make this elevator pitch as informative as possible, whilst still keeping some aspects of the film's storyline secret. For example, what is the fatal illness the daughter has? What are the disastrous consequences that come about as a result of the drug trials?
This pitch, whilst not being as detailed as a full story synopsis, gives a very brief outline of what could be expected to happen in the film me and Charlie create. Although on the day we have our greenlight pitch we will have to explain as much of our story as possible, this elevator pitch would be a great way to open the discussion.
