@DrMakaryFDA @FDACBER @SecKennedy, we MUST remember those who have died/are dying/will die from HORRIFIC 100% FATAL MILITARY SERVICE-RELATED
#ALS
Navy vet Matt Bellina, ALSFRS-R 21, wheelchair-bound, choked eating, needed BiPAP. After 7 NurOwn doses via Right to Try: 6 pts to 27, stood unassisted (arms-free after 2 yrs), no choking, breathed independently, speech/swallow improved, lung capacity 23%, core/arm strength up!
Despite these UNPRECEDENTED benefits,
@BellinaMatthew & ALL with ALS have been left to die.
@BrainstormCell @Cylebo MUST meet
@MartyMakary @VPrasadMDMPH about Accelerated Approval of SAFE & EFFECTIVE
#NurOwn
We MUST STOP CONDEMNING these heroes to die WITHOUT HOPE. While we delay, veterans are dying.
1 in 6 ALS deaths are veterans – this alone deserves URGENT ACTION from Congress
We cannot stand idly while those who served our country are abandoned by the very system meant to protect them.
I urge the new
@US_FDA leadership to grant
#Nurown the Commissioner's National Priority Voucher Program
#CNPV
Honor our veterans' sacrifices by fighting for their right to life.
Veteran organizations & currently healthy veterans MUST join the fight to END MILITARY SERVICE RELATED
#ALS.
Veterans have a 2X to 10X ⬆️ ALS risk depending on military occupation
For veterans with HORRIFIC
#ALS today & the MANY who will be diagnosed, we MUST END the CRUEL
@FDACBER regulatory RIGIDITY for 100% FATAL
#ALS
Veterans' voices are among the most powerful in this fight. We MUST END 156 years of hopelessness that disproportionately affects military veterans.
HOW MANY MORE HAVE TO BURY LOVED ONES before 100% FATAL ALS (since 1st identified in 1869) is treated with the same URGENCY & regulatory flexibility as cancer treatments?
