We expected to hear promising news about the potential for CAR-T therapy to treat myositis at the Global Conference on Myositis (GCOM).
What we heard was more than promising—it was astounding.
What if I told you that there was a therapy that would “reset” the immune system—virtually eliminating the autoimmune response in myositis that causes inflammation, pain, muscle weakness, and other JM conditions of which we are all too familiar.
We recommend that mental health assessment and treatment options be an integral part of comprehensive care for children, adolescents, and adults with juvenile myositis.
Membership is free and we’ll connect you with a network of support, encouragement, and resources.
