An amazing day!!
July 14th was a historic day in the FOP community. We at the IFOPA are thrilled to see Clementia’s trial start. This is a time of great hope in our community. Amidst the excitement, it’s important to remember that a clinical trial is NOT a treatment. As the Penn team said in their 2014 (23rd) annual report, “… clinical trials should not be viewed as clinical treatments, but rather as well-controlled and well-supervised experiments in which a patient is putting himself or herself at risk to determine if there is potential benefit to the drug under study.”
To get more information about Clementia’s Phase 2 trial, please read their list of frequently asked questions (FAQs), which you can find on the IFOPA’s new Drug Development page http://www.ifopa.org/drug-development.html
