Phase II Trials Rejected by JDRF   Message List

Re: Phase II Trials Rejected by JDRF

Well stated Ann. I met a dual kidney/pancreas transplant recipient in Seattle and his rejection meds cost $4,000 a month. He is on Medicaid so the taxpayers bear the costs and Bigpharma makes more on him NOW than they did before the transplants for the type 1 related organ failures.  If you haven't seen Enron The Movie, go to their web page and click around that briefcase that appears until you get to the microphone that plays audio tapes of the corrupt oil guys. Bigpharma boys make the Enron boys look like the sand box.

Tonight ABC Nightly News played three Bigpharma ads back to back. My Irish friend is appalled at this.

Writing the JDRF chapter leaders to alert them to the denial of funding is a fantastic idea. They may be unaware even of Faustman's research.

Given that JDRF is committed to 'finding a cure', I'm shocked that it's not at least partially funding the research. Recently JDRF gave out some 'awards' and I...

The Letter of Intent rejection by the JDRF is recent. It was submitted in January 2008. As stated previously, it was submitted to ask permission to submit a...

Joshua, Actions speak louder than words. JDRF's reasoning behind the multiple rejections in 2002-2004 after Dr. Faustman's  published...

My 2 local JDRF chapters were not aware of the recent rejections. I believe that the local chapters around the country are either not aware of this research at...

NO, of course it couldn't have been "exposed" because it NEVER HAPPENED. He, ahem, was not authorized so it never happened as far as he was concerned. If any...

I'd agree with exposing except for 3 things. 1. Even if he had enough to make it irrefutable, what would come of it? Nothing. Perhaps a big media hype which...
