Notably, in clinical trials for epithelial tumors (NCT02915445), 6 (50%) of the 12 enrolled patients experienced self-remitted grade 1/2 toxicities, 1 patient (8.3%) experienced reversible grade 3 leukopenia, and no higher-grade toxicity was reported. Efficacy analysis determined two patients as partial responses. Three patients showed >23 months of progression-free survival, among whom one patient experienced 2-year progress-free survival with detectable CAR-T cells 200 days after infusion. These data demonstrate the feasibility and tolerability of EpCAM–CAR-T therapy p/b Sichuan University, Sun Yat-sen University, Kun Yang, Hanshuo Yang #cartcelltherapy #survival #translationalmedicine https://lnkd.in/gaTQa5ex

It's all about Becker Muscular Dystrophy (Becker) this weekend at Edgewise Therapeutics Grand Canyon Investigators' Meeting in Charleston, South Carolina! #clinicalresearch #clinicaltrial #FDA #becker #cureduchenne #clinicalresearchcoordinator #principalinvestigator Currently, there is no cure for Becker. Early and long-term multidisciplinary care from neuromuscular specialists, cardiologists, physical therapists, and other clinical specialists is critical for optimizing the management of this disease. Novel therapies are in development for Becker, including muscle targeted interventions, aimed at positively impacting disease trajectory. #sitesuccess #teamwork #communication #networking #continuingeducation Check out this article on one of the newer studies we're taking on at National Neuromuscular Research Institute:

Developing CAR T-cell therapies in myeloma is a promising advancement in precision medicine. Notable clinical trials have demonstrated their efficacy in treating multiple myeloma. However, it's important to note that CAR T-cell therapies can lead to toxicities. Nevertheless, researchers are working on strategies to overcome these therapeutic challenges to achieve a cure. Learn more about these developments in the article linked below. #precisionmedicine #multiplemyeloma https://lnkd.in/ed9ib4FU

The Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) has played a crucial role in funding foundational research that has led to the approval of a new drug called Duvyzat (givinostat) by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Duvyzat, a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, has shown promising results in slowing the progression of DMD. The approval of Duvyzat provides an additional treatment option for children and adolescents living with DMD. The MDA's funding has supported the development of new treatments like Duvyzat and has expanded the options available for patients with DMD. The approval of Duvyzat is significant as it works differently from other treatments, opening up the possibility of combining it with other therapies to further improve the lives of patients. The MDA's commitment to empowering people with neuromuscular diseases, including muscular dystrophy, has positively impacted patients and their families through resources and advocacy efforts. Overall, the MDA's support and funding have made a significant impact in the field of muscular dystrophy. #MDA #DMD #MuscularDystrophy #Duvyzat #Givinostat #NewTreatment #ResearchFunding #HopeForPatients #EmpoweringPatients #MDAimpact #MuscularDystrophyAwareness

"The 12-month results from the PARADIGM Phase IIb study are encouraging, showing slowing disease progression and improved survival outcomes. This new analysis highlights PrimeC's ability to regulate the iron panel in people living with ALS, underscoring the drug's target engagement. These findings strongly support the proceeding to phase 3 testing of PrimeC in ALS." #NeuroSenseTherapeutics #ALSTreatment #ClinicalTrial #BiomarkerData #HealthcareInnovation #ProudMoment NeuroSense Therapeutics https://lnkd.in/dzVT6QWJ
