The LBSL externally-led Patient-Focused Drug Development meeting on Aug. 1 provided our community with a critical opportunity to share their lived experiences and hopes for a treatment. We are developing the Voice of the Patient report to summarize the meeting and capture insights from the LBSL community to help inform future drug development efforts and will publish it in the coming months!
