Patient Empowerment Program: A Rare Disease Podcast

Join the nano-rare disease community! Interviews features leading physicians, scientists, biotech experts, and patient advocates. Lessons teach core concepts about drugs. Our host Dr. Crooke has led the creation of antisense technology and his foundation, n-Lorem, is using this powerful technology to discover, develop, and provide personalized experimental antisense oligonucleotide medicines to nano-rare patients for free, for life. n-Lorem is a non-profit organization established to apply the efficiency, versatility and specificity of antisense technology to charitably provide experimental antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) medicines to treat patients (less than 30 patients) that are the result of a single genetic defect unique to only one or very few individuals. The advantage of experimental ASO medicines is that they can be developed rapidly, inexpensively and are highly specific. n-Lorem was founded by Dr. Stan Crooke, who founded IONIS Pharmaceuticals in 1989 and, through his vision and leadership, established the company as the leader in RNA-targeted therapeutics. The podcast is produced by n-Lorem Foundation and hosted by Dr. Stanley T. Crroke, who is the Founder, CEO and Chairman. Our videographer is Jon Magnuson. Our producers are Kira Dineen, Jon Magnuson, Kim Butler, and Amy Williford. To learn more about n-Lorem, visit nlorem.org. Contact us at podcast@nlorem.org.

What is n-Lorem?

n-Lorem provides an opportunity for a better life, renewed hope and brighter dreams, one patient, one family at a time. Our mission is to provide personalized experimental antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) medicines to treat nano-rare patients – for free, for life. Nano-rare patients describe a very small group of patients (1-30 worldwide) who, because of their small numbers, have few if any treatment options. We take advantage of the efficacy and versatility of ASO technology. ASO technology is the only technology with regulatory guidance to treat nano-rare patients. Rare diseases often cause people to do things that they’re completely untrained to do. With this series, we’re building a community for nano-rare and bringing the basic science behind drug discovery and development directly to patients and their families.

Dr. Stan Crooke talks to Luke Rosen and Wendy Chung about Luke’s seven-year old daughter, Susannah. Susannah has a genetic mutation that is progressive and debilitating. Susannah is also an n-Lorem patient, which means that we are hard at work discovering and developing a personalized experimental ASO medicine just for her, for her specific mutation. Her doctor, Wendy Chung, and Luke discuss Susannah’s life, her diagnosis and disease progression and the hope that they both have that there will be something that will make life better for her.
