We’re so grateful to the students and clubs at @AHPrivateSchool who are supporting our mission at #ProjectAlive with their passion and incredible ideas! youtu.be/33ArmYBKvq4
Last week at @WORLDSymposia, we met with pharma and biotech companies, patient advocacy groups, and relevant service providers. We heard new science, saw incredible results, and felt pangs of disappointment. It is all that which urges us on toward a cure for #HunterSyndrome.

Replying to @RNAiAnalyst
It DOES work. Trial design was not ideal. Age equivalencies instead of normed cognitive scores should have been used as endpoint. Secondary endpoint data, yet to come, will include age equivalencies. Also patient level data has greater clarity in a disease like #HunterSyndrome.
Replying to @Biotech2050
The response of the #HunterSyndrome community. $SHPG also has a follow-on program of a BBB-crossing enzyme AGT-182.
