iTTP Externally-Led Patient-Focused Drug Development (EL-PFDD)

On January 26, 2024, the Ree Wynn Foundation hosted a patient-focused drug development meeting for the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The meeting was supported by:

  • James Wynn – The Ree Wynn Foundation/Co Moderator
  • James Valentine – Hyman, Phelps & McNamara/Co Moderator
  • A host of iTTP Warriors and caregivers who shared their experiences with iTTP


The meeting also welcomes the following guest speakers - here are the times and the topics for their presentations:

  • 00:23:53 – FDA Remarks - Dr. Tanya Wroblewski, Deputy Director DNH
  • 00:33:06 - Scientific Foundation for iTTP – Dr. Zheng Long, University of Kansas
  • 3:17:13 - iTTP treatment overview - Dr. Adam Cuker, University of Pennsylvania
  • 5:05:40 – Meeting Summary - Larry Bauer from Hyman, Phelps & McNamara

If you would like to learn about the experiences of iTTP patients, I recommend you watch the complete video. If you would like to learn about iTTP and treatments, please listen to the talks by Dr. Long and Dr. Cuker.

I thank the Ree Wynn Foundation for preparing and hosting this important meeting which is another step to support all iTTP Warriors.

Thanks, Bruce.
