Ever wondered what it's REALLY like to participate in a clinical trial? 🤔
I'm Dr. Kara, an allergist, immunologist, AND a Sjogren's patient currently enrolled in a Phase 3 clinical trial for a promising new Sjogren's treatment - Dazodalibep.
And guess what? I'm doing a LIVE Ask Me Anything (AMA) while I'm getting my 3rd infusion! 💉🙌
That's right, you can ask me ANYTHING about my experience as a clinical trial participant, the ins and outs of this particular study, or anything else Sjogren's-related that's on your mind.
So, let's make this 90-minute infusion fly by! 🚀
Drop your questions in the comments below, and I'll do my best to answer them live! 👇

I pray that u will heal successfully 🙏

I’m in the same trial. Getting my 3rd infusion as we speak. Unfortunately I am fairly certain I’m in the placebo group so not feeling any benefits as of right now. Good luck with your experience.

Can you share on small fiber neuropathy connected with Sjogrens?

[@hammadurrahmanmaaz576]

Where does one signup for these trials and are subjects paid for participating, like it's shown in TV?

Best to you with the trial. I have asthma. But I have been told I am not being helped on purpose. Thought about trying an asthma trial just for the possible help I might get. Was denied one trial due to lung damage. Leaky pulmonary valve. High pulmonary pressure. Dilated Vena Cava. Doctor told me I have significant problems and was denied. How do I get help?

Can you explain what the benefits of the drug are expected to be and what the treatment entails. My daughter has Sjogrens
Thank you

[@christineabercrombie5257]

Mine too. Would like same questions answered. Thank you

[@christineabercrombie5257]

My daughter has Sjogrens. She was diagnosed at age 19.
She is on a worldwide research programme into young adult autoimmune disease increase.
Is this drug a cure or does it elevate symptoms?
Would love to know more about it in general.
Thank you. Hope it goes well for you and that this could be a way forward for those with Sjogrens 🙏

Is it completely cured?
