I want DMD to have its moment like this. It’d be a great celebration of American greatness and scientific excellence. Awareness of Duchenne would go through the roof. And I want to be there for it!

.@POTUS: "FDA has just approved a new drug from Regeneron called Otarmeni, a gene therapy curing a rare disease causing deafness." "Here with us is 2-year-old Travis Smith. He was born deaf... He took this miracle cure and now he can hear his mom, Sierra, say, 'I love you.'" ❤️

@DrMakaryFDA @SecKennedy @POTUS @RonJohnsonWI Please respond to these families who are desperately trying to get your attention just to take a closer look. Let them know that they are heard and that their voices matter, please. This request is perfectly aligned with all of the things that you all speak about so passionately. In the spirit of Right to Try, please just do the next right thing. #ataluren #patientexperience #raredisease #timeismuscle #righttotry

@DrMakaryFDA @FDACDERDirector:  Please help us and signal to @PTCBio that FDA will weigh #RealWorldEvidence and apply consistent standards across CDER/CBER when reviewing #Ataluren for stop-codon #Duchenne. Real-world outcomes truly matter: a 13-year-old running; a 34-year-old maintaining breathing function. Our sons with a nonsense mutation are not eligible for exon-skipping; my son has been in Ataluren trials/extension since 2006 with no side effects. He lost ambulation at 22 (2015) and, at 32, has avoided typical pulmonary decline with 97% pulmonary scores. #RareDisease families can risk losing time/abilities that can’t be regained. #TimeIsMuscle @SecKennedy @POTUS @RonJohnsonWI @SenRonJohnson

RFK Jr. gets emotional sharing his thoughts on faith and spirituality. “God talks to us in a whisper.” “The world is clamoring at us with all this loud noise and these shiny things all the time.” “The world is a very noisy place.” “We’re all a combination of both spiritual beings and biological beings.” “God is not going to intrude on our life.” “He's not going to kick down our door.” “He needs to be invited in.” “And that starts with that act of surrender.” @CMLBCKRecovery

Cell and gene therapy developers shouldn’t have to guess about what safety studies FDA wants to see. Today, FDA issued clear draft guidance that will save developers millions of dollars and years of effort, accelerating treatments to patients. Every effort to move more efficiently here is worth it.
