  • Our take on the REACH losmapimod clinical trial results
    Sep 19 2024

    "I always tell the truth, even when I lie." Today we are joined by our CRISPR Goddess and cover the Fulcrum Therapeutics REACH phase 3 clinical trial data release and discuss our journey with Fulcrum from the beginning. While very disappointing from several aspects, in the end a lot of benefit truly has been gained for the FSHD field and we are grateful for Fulcrum's contributions to help others going forward. And there are many others coming along, this is the beginning and not the end for FSHD therapeutics.
