Despite high hopes and promise from the drug Namilumab, Kinevant Sciences is reporting that the drug was not effective in treating Sarcoidosis. A well executed clinical trail showed that the drug simply didn't make a difference for sarcoidosis patients. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter Podcast, two of the leaders at Kinevant join me to talk about the results of the clinical trial and to look at what science learned from the study. Also joining me is FSR CEO Mary McGowan who helps shape the perspective of the outcome and to help us understand that while Namilumab did not turn out to be the drug we hoped, there is still a path forward in the fight against Sarcoidosis.
Also have you seen the new Netflix mini-series in which one of the characters has Sarcoidosis called No Good Deed? I have. And I'll tell you what you need to know, without any spoilers.
