The NNPDF and our ASMD family membership continue to be grateful to the team of members at Genzyme/Sanofi and the medical/clinical professionals at Mt. Sinai and UK clinical sites for their ongoing commitment and determination to move this ERT clinical trial forward. It is appreciated.
We will all anxiously await the further details highlighting the trial data results as they become available.
Kind regards,
Nadine
