Dr. Adam Kilian, Director of the Rheumatology Fellowship Training Program at the St. Louis University School of Medicine, focuses on IgG4-related disease, a rare multi-organ disease that has only recently been recognized due to significant diagnostic challenges. The MITIGATE trial is a landmark study that demonstrated that the first FDA-approved treatment, UPLIZNA from Amgen, provides an effective, targeted, steroid-free therapy. The approval of this drug is driving awareness in the medical community about IgG4-RD and whether the disease should be considered after inconclusive results for other suspected conditions. Adam explains, "IgG4-related disease is a rare disease that affects many organ systems. It's a chronic systemic, fibroinflammatory disease that can affect almost any organ system. And it will usually present with these tumor-like inflammatory masses that can cause scarring and lead to organ failure." "Our understanding of it continues to evolve, and it's had a really interesting story over the last century because IgG4-related disease affects so many different organ systems. Over the past century, there were actually many different diagnoses that were recognized, which now all fall under the umbrella of IgG4-related disease. Different scientists and physicians around the world over the years recognized the different manifestations of the disease in the pancreas, in the lymph nodes, in the head and neck, in the kidneys, or in the blood vessels. And it's only been in the last 20 years or so that we have recognized that actually all of these different disease entities from the last century are actually all manifestations of this disease, IgG4, IgG4-related disease." "The clinical trial is called the MITIGATE trial, and it's a very seminal clinical trial in rheumatology from the last several years. This was the first-ever phase three double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized controlled trial in IgG4-related disease. This was a huge trial. It was global. It was conducted in 22 countries with multiple specialties coordinating this trial. It was 52 weeks long, and its purpose was to evaluate the effectiveness and the safety of UPLIZNA in patients who have IgG4-related disease." #MITIGATETrial #IgG4RelatedDisease #IgG4RD #UPLIZNA UPLIZNA Listen to the podcast here

“It's kind of a miracle, frankly,” says Dr. John Buse, a distinguished professor at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, referring to the effectiveness of GLP-1 receptor agonist medications such as Ozempic in treating type 2 diabetes, promoting significant weight loss, and reducing cardiovascular risk. As a physician scientist for the last three decades at UNC, Dr. Buse has played a key role in ushering in this new era of diabetes care, leading or participating in over 200 clinical studies on this class of drugs and others. “Nothing has impacted diabetes care like the GLP-1 receptor agonists. I have lots of patients whose diabetes was never well controlled who have seen all their metabolic problems essentially resolved.” In this fascinating conversation with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Buse not only explains how these drugs work, but also provides a clear-eyed look at side effects, and addresses issues of cost and access. Join us for the remarkable story – including the role played by Gila monsters -- behind one of the biggest developments in medicine over the past several years from a world renowned diabetes researcher and clinician.

A diverse healthcare workforce is critical to improving outcomes for our diverse nation. In order to achieve this, there needs to be both a pipeline and a pathway, says Dr. Valerie Montgomery Rice, President and CEO of Morehouse School of Medicine. “We need students to believe what's possible in first grade and then chart a path,” she says. Montgomery Rice says her own love and science and people led her to chart her career pathway that led her into academic medicine. “What if everybody was given that opportunity. What if everybody was told you can be whatever you want to be?” “Every one of my roles has been about how to develop people to bring their best self to work,” she says. Although health equity work can be polarized and be perceived as political, Montgomery Rice says Morehouse School of Medicine is committed to leading the creation and advancement of health equity — both through new solutions and through complementing existing ones. The heart of her message on health equity: It's about “giving people what they need, when they need it, to achieve optimal level of health.” Montgomery Rice spoke with Movement Is Life's Dr. Carla Harwell for this episode, which was recorded at Movement Is Life's annual health equity summit.

To mark International Rare Disease Day, we're going to introduce you to a remarkable young woman, Zainab Alani, who is not letting her challenging rare condition stand in the way of her dream of becoming a physician. After noticing Zainab's struggles with muscle weakness and fatigue at age 15, her mother – a physician – took her to doctors advocating for a diagnosis of the rare autoimmune condition generalized myasthenia gravis (MG). Unfortunately, a series of clinicians attributed her symptoms to her menstrual cycle and other errant causes and even accused Zainab of being ‘a lazy teenager.' “Despite having that support and knowledge behind me, these doctors were dismissing my symptoms because of that deceiving label of rare,” Zainab explains to host Lindsey Smith. Wanting to spare others from this frustrating diagnostic odyssey, Zainab turned to advocacy once in medical school and is working with her sister and others through the organization Rare Aware Glasgow to raise awareness among the general public about rare conditions and to spur the medical community to adjust its perspective. “We don't expect medical professionals to know every single rare disease, we just want them to acknowledge their existence and not dismiss them when a family member or a patient brings them up as a differential diagnosis.” In this inspiring episode in our Year of the Zebra podcast series you'll also learn about intersectionality creating burdens in medical diagnosis and a questionable basis for patients being denied access to new treatments.Mentioned in this episode:Rare Aware GlasgowThe Myasthenia Medic If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Morehouse School of Medicine, with support from Ferring Pharmaceuticals, launched a new initiative championing equity in fertility care for Black women. FertilityEquity is an e-learning program focusing on fertility care for Black women. It's available to the public, but created for healthcare professionals and fertility clinic staff. Dr. Lasha Clarke, an assistant director of research and translation at the Center for Maternal Health Equity at Morehouse School of Medicine, talks more about the program. Data shows Black women entrepreneurs are the fastest-growing demographic of entrepreneurs. However, Black women entrepreneurs face a myriad of challenges, including a lack of venture capital investment, resources and mentorship. In an effort to empower Black girls and women entrepreneurs, Southern Black Girls Consortium recently launched the Dream Investment Program. LaTosha Brown, the visionary founder of the Southern Black Girls, discusses the goals of the program and its application process. The deadline to apply for the program, which is open to young women entrepreneurs between the ages of 14-24, is Sat. Nov.30.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
