The Diagnostic Odyssey for Castleman Disease Patients

Because Castleman disease mimics other diseases (it’s most often thought to be lymphoma), patients often suffer for months without an accurate diagnosis. Many patients aren’t diagnosed in time to receive the lifesaving treatments the CDCN continues to identify. This video captures just a few of their stories. We aim to change this narrative with the development of a test that can quickly diagnose Castleman disease and in turn, save thousands more lives.
