I pray that @SteveGleason will say the fact that NFL players are 4 times more likely than the general population to develop and die from 100% FATAL #ALS. They deserve to know the truth. Don't you think @nflcommish? #EndALS @ESPYS @ESPNNFL @espn @NFL @NFLAlumni @KerryGoode @timgreenbooks @OJBrigance @ChieSmith35 @TShawsTruth @TeamGleason @stevens_nation @BriganceBrigade

1/ Have hope, pALS. Next month I will receive my 12th injection of #Qualsody-an #ALS drug the @fda admitted was potentially dangerous (and which failed its Phase 3 trial). This drug was approved for SOD1 ALS regardless of "minor" risks such as brain swelling, meningitis, (cont'd)

In ALS, motor neurons are dying. In this fascinating trial, researchers are using #neurotrophic factors to help rescue motor neurons. Dr Clive Svendsen of @CSRegenMedicine at @CedarsSinai is is using a protein called GDNF (glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor), which is a "nutrient that brain cells can use to mature & survive. GDNF promotes the growth of axons, the threadlike structures brain cells use to communicate, and also helps damaged cells rejuvenate." But GDNF is a large protein that cannot pass through the blood brain barrier. So @CliveSvendsen's lab engineered a human #stemcell called a neural progenitor to release GDNF, then transplanted those cells into the spinal cords & brains of people with ALS. Their hope is that the progenitor cells will mature into healthy support cells & release #GDNF that will help HEAL diseased motor neurons. There are still openings in the early P1/2a trial focusing on upper motor neurons. Here is the link to learn more about trial eligibility: clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05306… #ALS #EndALS #stemcells

"ALS AWARENESS" by itself is USELESS! I had ALS during the #IceBucketChallenge… the ultimate "awareness" campaign. If you speak with healthy people who participated, very few know what ALS is & none have become ALS activists. 155 years of ALS being 100% FATAL, at what point will everyone realize that AGGRESSIVE ACTIVISM is needed? FFS A movie will do NOTHING to #EndALS . Seriously, #WakeUp!! Don't reward this nonsense with endless praise. There are ZERO effective leaders in #ALS today. Since ALS has NEVER had an aggressive leader, I want to show you one so you will know if one ever shows up.

1/ When tens of patients facing an #ALS death receive a clear result (backed by the strongest biomarker data ever), the @FDA and "advocates" with chips on their shoulders often make things ugly. Not sure what a "plop trial" is, but let's review: the last two @US_FDA #ALS drugs...

100% FATAL #ALS IS NOT RARE! You or your loved one could be next Each day is a battle against the relentless progression of the disease as we are denied effective #Nurown due to #PeterMarks @FDACBER @DrCaliff_FDA INFLEXIBILITY. While cancer patients often have access to promising therapies through expedited approval pathways, those with #ALS are left clinging to hope, our lives hanging in the balance, as the @US_FDA clings to outdated processes that delay access to potentially life-saving treatments. #FDAfailedALS #NurownWorks #CriticalUnmetNeed #CaliffIsCorrupt #100PercentFatal ALS robs you of your strength, your voice, & your independence, leaving behind profound loneliness & emotional pain. As your body betrays you, your world shrinks, while your mind remains vibrant & witness to the destruction of your life. Don't wait for HORRIFIC 100% FATAL #ALS to enter your life to ACT. @RepGuthrie @RepLarryBucshon @RepAnnaEshoo @michaelcburgess @RepGusBilirakis @RepBillJohnson @RepRichHudson @RepBuddyCarter @DrNealDunnFL2 @cathymcmorris @RepSarbanes @RepCardenas @RepDebDingell @RepMMM @SenatorWicker @RepRobinKelly @RepBarragan @RepAngieCraig @RepKimSchrier @RepLoriTrahan @BernieSanders @PattyMurray @SenBobCasey @SenatorBaldwin @timkaine @SenatorHassan @SenTinaSmith @SenMarkey @SenBillCassidy @SenMullin @lisamurkowski @SenatorBraun @RogerMarshallMD @RepJasonCrow @TeamCalvert @RepBrianFitz @ChrisCoons @RepAndyHarrisMD @DickDurbin @SenJohnThune @RepDianaDeGette @RepMikeQuigley @RepSchakowsky @rosadelauro @RepJohnCurtis @DorisMatsui @RepDonBacon

The #ALS community is being DECIMATED. We've lost giants like @AdyBarkan, @PQuinnfortheWin, @DoddieWeir5, @PeteFrates3, and TODAY @Rob7Burrow. 💔 HOW MANY MORE LIVES WILL BE LOST before the CRUEL @FDACBER & @DrCaliff_FDA exercise flexibility for EFFECTIVE treatment #Nurown? #CaliffIsCorrupt #100PercentFatal #FDAfailedALS WHERE IS YOUR RAGE? Several days of thoughts & prayers are ALWAYS followed by a return to & acceptance of the status quo…… CERTAIN DEATH. THE TIME FOR THOUGHTS & PRAYERS IS OVER. WE MUST DEMAND ACTION if we want to ever see an end to #ALS. CONGRESS, dying ALS with broken bodies & NO BIG PHARMA ALLIES, NEED our elected officials to fight on our behalf. Don't wait for HORRIFIC #ALS to enter your life to hold the #FDACBER Director #PeterMarks & #DrCaliff ACCOUNTABLE for their inhumanity and corruption. @RepGuthrie @RepLarryBucshon @RepAnnaEshoo @michaelcburgess @RepGusBilirakis @DrNealDunnFL2 @cathymcmorris @RepSarbanes @RepCardenas @RepDebDingell @RepMMM @SenatorWicker @RepBarragan @RepAngieCraig @RepKimSchrier @RepLoriTrahan @BernieSanders @PattyMurray @SenBobCasey @SenatorBaldwin @timkaine @SenatorHassan @SenTinaSmith @SenMarkey @SenBillCassidy @SenMullin @lisamurkowski @SenatorBraun @RogerMarshallMD @RepJasonCrow @TeamCalvert @RepBrianFitz @ChrisCoons @RepAndyHarrisMD @DickDurbin @SenJohnThune @RepDianaDeGette @RepMikeQuigley @RepSchakowsky @rosadelauro @RepJohnCurtis @DorisMatsui @RepDonBacon

New Neurofilament Light (#NfL) data from #NurOwn EAP once again proves NurOwn Works in 100% fatal #ALS. More Doses + More Time = Works More! ir.brainstorm-cell.com/2024-05-20-Bra… People on NurOwn in P3 + EAP: 🔹11% NfL decrease = avg in P3 who rcvd 3 doses 🔹4% NfL decrease = 10 on NurOwn in P3 who were chosen for EAP 🔹27% NfL decrease = P3 + EAP1 🔹36% NfL decrease = P3 + EAP1 + EAP2 People on Placebo in P3 + NurOwn in EAP: 🔹37% increase in NfL = P3 Placebo 🔹17% increase in NfL = EAP1 🔹5% decrease in NfL = EAP2 🔹P3 placebo crossover-like participants stabilized in EAP1 with slower NfL increase (as Dr. Windebank testified)... then in EAP2, they had decreases in NfL CSF Biomarker Data & NurOwn Dosing in P3 & EAP: 🔹13 CSF samples in P3 & EAP from 2017-2022 measuring neurodegeneration biomarker Neurofilament Light (NfL) 🔹Sample size of 8/10 completed EAP1 & 6/10 EAP2 🔹GAPS in treatment: ≈ 1-2 yr gap between P3 & EAP1 dose ≈ 6 month gap between EAP1 & EAP2 #NurOwnWorks...

@AMAZlNGNATURE That would be a wolf called for the pack. The forest made the sound much different. I might be wrong though.
