In episode 10 of TSC Now, host Dan Klein talks to Darcy Krueger, MD, PhD, TSC Clinic Director at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. They discuss the recent FDA approval of the Sabril label expansion, the study he led that served as supplemental material for that application, and what this process can teach us about the role of physicians, patients and advocacy organizations play in ensuring access to life-saving medications for people with rare diseases like TSC. Finally, they discuss how the TS Alliance can begin to develop evidence-based standards of care.
Then in a brand new segment, Dan catches up with Shelly Meitzler, TS Alliance Regional Program Manager East. They talk about how she first got involved with the TS Alliance, how she draws strength from supporting other families and individuals affected, and why she is running the 2020 TCS New York City Marathon with Team TSC. The TS Alliance has nine spots available for people interested in running the marathon and fundraising with Team TSC, to learn more and apply visit: https://www.tsalliance.org/Team-TSC/ or email Shelly at smeitzler@tsalliance.org.
