HNF is advancing and supporting clinical research and trials for CMT.
HNF has been instrumental in advancing and supporting clinical trials by providing valuable patient insight, innovative data collection, and regulatory initiatives to assist in industry-sponsored clinical trial design and to inform the FDA for decision-making and oversight during drug development and commercialization of drugs and gene therapies for CMT.
Learn about clinical trials and how you can participate.
Without your participation, researchers won’t have the essential patient information to develop drugs, gene therapies, and clinical trials for Charcot-Marie-Tooth and other Inherited Neuropathies. In addition, as GRIN grows, we gain greater insights from you as patients to help accelerate therapies for Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and Inherited Neuropathies.
