About this listen

In this episode of 'Rare Candor,' we shed light on the stark reality that 95% of rare diseases are without treatment. Enter Fasenra (benralizumab)—the newest treatment for those navigating eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). Sarah, alongside Dr. Jessica Most, dives deep into Fasenra's unique mechanism of unleashing natural killer cells to tackle eosinophils. They discuss the importance of treating patients with respect, arming them with all the facts and data they crave. The duo also navigates through safety concerns, dosing intricacies, and the uphill battle with insurance companies. Pam ends the episode by sharing tips to help your doctor, and insurance, wrap their heads around the unique dosing for EGPA. Bold, unapologetic, and utterly essential for anyone in the rare disease community.
