From playground falls to sports injuries, oral trauma is part of growing up. But when a tooth gets chipped, knocked out or a lip is cut, it can be stressful for families and challenging for providers. In this episode, we take a closer look at pediatric dental and oral trauma from the primary care perspective. We are focusing on what to look for, when to act and how to guide families through those anxious first moments after an injury. This episode was recorded on the exhibit floor at the 2025 American Academy of Pediatrics Conference in Denver, Colorado. Joining us is Erica Brecher, DMD. She is a pediatric dentist with Duke Street Pediatric Dentistry and is on staff at Duke Children's Hospital. She is also an adjunct professor at the University of North Carolina School of Dentistry. Some highlights from this episode include:  Most common oral and dental traumas in kids  How outcomes differ from baby teeth to permanent teeth  What steps a pediatrician can take to save a tooth  Why a strong partnership between the pediatric and dental home can improve outcomes    For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org. 

Santhera Pharmaceuticals chief medical officer Dr Shabir Hasham talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's progress in launching AGAMREE, a dissociative corticosteroid for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Santhera is a Swiss specialty pharmaceutical company focused on treatments for pediatric rare diseases. Its lead product, AGAMREE, aims to offer comparable efficacy to traditional corticosteroids while reducing the debilitating side effects often associated with long-term steroid use in DMD patients. Hasham noted that current treatments are frequently discontinued or reduced after a few years due to growth stunting, weight gain, and other complications. “Our drug AGAMREE is a corticosteroid, but we've been able to modify the structure of it… we offer the same efficacy… but we are able to avoid many of the debilitating side effects,” said Hasham. The treatment has already launched in Germany, Austria, and the UK, with further European rollouts expected in the coming months. Commercialisation in the US is underway via a partnership with Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, and entry into China has begun through Spirit Genetics. New long-term data from the Guardian study shows patients treated for up to eight years exhibited no growth stunting and significantly fewer fractures. Hasham said the data may encourage wider use in countries where steroid uptake has been low and added, “This will make a very positive impact in terms of our ability to roll the drug out.” For more interviews like this, visit Proactive's YouTube channel.

The FDA made waves in early September when it announced a plan to publicly release complete response letters (CRLs) at the same time they are issued to sponsoring companies, part of what the agency calls a push toward “radical transparency.” At the same time, the FDA released 89 new CRLs, adding to the more than 200 that were previously made public in July and shedding more light on the agency’s often opaque review process. That earlier document dump, though, only included rejection letters for drugs that were eventually approved. Now, for the first time, the agency is releasing CRLs for unapproved drug candidates—including recent high-profile rejections such as Ultragenyx’s gene therapy for Sanfilippo syndrome type A, Capricor Therapeutics’ Duchenne muscular dystrophy cell therapy and Replimune’s melanoma drug. Publicly airing the rationale for rejecting drug candidates is a significant shift for the FDA and a potential cause for concern for the biopharma industry. To unpack what the new policy means for drug developers, Fierce Biotech’s Darren Incorvaia sat down with Torrey Cope, a lawyer with Sidley Austin who represents and advises life sciences companies on issues related to the FDA. To learn more about the topics in this episode: FDA releases ‘initial batch’ of more than 200 drug rejection letters FDA moves to publish drug rejection letters in real time, releases new batch including Replimune's high-profile snub FDA misinterpreted efficacy data that prompted DMD rejection, Capricor claims ‘Weak’ evidence and an ‘unpleasant’ odor: FDA sheds light on drug refusal process 'Several concerning observations': FDA sheds more light on reasons it rejected drugs See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  Implementing Zero Trust in a complex federal environment includes protecting data. To reach this goal, CISA has updated its recommendations for Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation program called the Data Model Document (DMD). It provides the audience with a mechanism to focus on the most recent relevant changes without having to review the document in its entirety.   Today, we sat down with three experts to unpack some of the expanded concepts.   The first challenge is understanding the variety of systems. For example,  Daniel Ane from the TSA shared that they had to report data from eighty different systems. The only time efficient way to collect this varying data is with specific tools.   There is also a matter of control. Mark Hadley from the PNL shares that much critical infrastructure is  owned by the private sector, which can limit what kind of data can be collected.   Finally, Brian Meyer from Axonius makes a practical observation. Let us say you have a set of tools that accomplish the job of accurate data collection. If one gets updated, it can throw the entire compliance process out the window.   It seems obvious that adhering to the strictures of the Data Model Management recommendations will assist in a move to Zero Trust, but administering DMD needs guidance and a data strategy that is practical.
