CURE-ID

💊CURE-ID is an FDA/ NIH developed treatment registry to capture rare disease drug repurposing.
#RASopathies patients, caregivers, and clinicians can report experiences using existing drugs (LIKE MEK INHIBITORS) to see what’s working or not.

Noonan syndrome is a RASopathy characterised by short stature, heart disease and brain-related disorders. Brain-related disorders include intellectual developmental disorder (IDD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), among others. IDD, ASD and ADHD were estimated to affect 23%, 11% and 31% of individuals, respectively. This is higher than the prevalence in the general population. The prevalence of seizure disorders and emotional disorders was also high, although the evidence was more limited.

Yaaaas!! This is the <ARAF> paper. Turns out that lymphatic disorders are caused by mosaic and germline RAS/MAPK pathway mutations (also PI3K pathway) and yes MEK inhibitors are showing remarkable results. The #RASopathies community is optimistic. 🧪
