Social media data can be informative, but extremely limited.

FDA Patient-Focused Drug Development: Workshop

COI - Concepts of Interest
MAH - Meaningful Aspects of Health
COA - Clinical Outcome Assessment

Takeaway is FDA very interested in including patient experience data, but is very challenging. These should be part of trial design.

So there blaming the Citizen's Petition on lack of trial funding and falling off the NASDAQ?

Cassidy was the deciding vote to confirm RFK Jr. based on a promise not to fire the panel. Maybe confirmation promises aren’t enough when there is ZERO accountability!

Nothing says 'defender of democracy' like wielding the weapon of a Sith Lord. So...no Star Wars nerds on his staff?

While this is definitely a step in the right direction, many #ALS caregivers have to quit working entirely to care for us. Which also does not allow them to put earnings towards Social Security & Medicare for when they will need it.

Yep, and given the article is from TrialSite News, that's not a surprise.

Yes, the hips turning out sucks. We now put a small pillow outside each knee and tuck them tight with a face towel. Helps quite a bit. Can sort of see in photo.

Oh, DOGE! This grant is to study alternative feminine hygiene products using natural fibers instead of synthetic ones. There was one line that used trans and intersex people in their description of the population menstruating.

Got an email from a hacker claiming they have video of me jerking off to porn and will send it to my contacts unless I pay up. Dude, I have ALS. If I could do that, I’d send the video out myself as a damn miracle! Nice try, though. 🤣

How about rolls instead of steps? 😂

I think so. In years past, Radicava for me was ~$12K that had to be paid (via Healthwell Foundation). With the 2024 changes, this year was just $3,800.
