Dear Friends,

Your voice matters to us. We want the Dravet syndrome patient community to be heard in order to educate others.

Back on February 3, 2022, we brought your voice to a virtual Externally-Led Patient-Focused Drug Development meeting on Dravet syndrome. During the meeting, we were able to educate representatives of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and pharmaceutical companies, as well as academic researchers and clinicians, about the challenges that individuals living with Dravet syndrome face daily.

Thank you to the patient panelists, phone callers, and individuals who bravely chose to share their experiences to support this effort. With this input, we documented the significant physical and emotional impact on people living with Dravet syndrome and our hope for future treatments.

View our Voice of the Patient Report to hear from our patient community and learn more about this meeting.

Warmly,

Dravet Syndrome Foundation
