Congressional testimony: right-to-try and FDA frustration

uniQure is a business that develops gene therapies. uniQure's AMT-130 is currently in the headlines. This podcast episode attempts to present the Huntington's Disease community's arguments for why the FDA should work collaboratively to design a palatable drug trial.

Last week the FDA told uniQure that AMT-130 would be subject to a double blind, Phase 3, randomized controlled study. While the scientific basis for that request is sound in most cases, the Huntington's Disease community argues that path is overly burdensome; perhaps impossible.
