Thread about @manlyepic & my @jamaneuro commentary re one especially shameful aspect of the FDA approval of #aduhelm. Before working w/ @manlyepic on this, I knew it was bad, but I didn’t know how bad. doi:10.1001/jamaneurol.2021.3404 1/27
In @Biogen’s FDA filing, only 0.6% (ie 19 people) of 3285 trial participants identified as Black, 3% as Hispanic, 0.03% (1 person) American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.03% as Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander. Of 9% identified as Asian, 94% were recruited in Asia. 2/n
But it gets even worse: of those 19 Black participants, most were randomly assigned to control or low-dose treatment arms. FDA approved a medication with known increases in risk for brain bleeding after only 6 Black people had received the approve dose. How is that okay? 3/n

Účinná léčba Alzheimerovy choroby je Svatý grál.
7. června schválila Americká FDA lék #Aduhelm (aducanumab) - první lék na toto onemocnění po 17 letech.
Pojďme se podívat trochu blíž celé této situaci, která bude přepisovat nejen učebnice, ale možná i regulační přístupy.
⚠️FDA tento lék schválila, čímž ignorovala názor své vlastní komise, která hlasovala 10:0 PROTI SCHVÁLENÍ (1 se zdržel).
⚠️Následně již 3. člen této expertní komise rezignoval.

⚠️Léčba #aducanumabem bude stát přibližně 56 000$ (1,17 mil. Kč)
⚠️FDA dala výrobci bianco šek na jakoukoliv léčbu Alzheimera - indikační omezení jsou poměrně široká
⚠️Za to musí výrobce provést postautorizační studii, jejíž výsledky mají být známé do 2030
