SADS Externally-led Patient Focused Drug Development
Thank you to all who participated, viewed, commented and supported in Tuesday’s June 11 2024 EL-PFDD for LQTS and CPVT. We’re thankful for your willingness to share details of your experience living with LQTS and CPVT. This meeting was impactful because of your vulnerability and commitment to making a change.
From the bottom of our hearts, please accept our gratitude for you and the entire SADS community. You truly showed the FDA and researchers the importance of new and improved treatments for these conditions.
The subsequent “Voice of the Patient: CPVT” and “Voice of the Patient: LQTS” report is a compilation of the testimonies and survey responses of individuals affected by these conditions from all around the world and is the first-ever report of its kind for inherited heart conditions.

Externally-led Patient-Focused Drug Development meetings give FDA and other key stakeholders, including medical product developers, health care providers, federal partners, an important opportunity to hear directly from patients, their families, caregivers, and patient advocates about the symptoms that matter most to them, the impact the disease has on patients’ daily lives, and patients’ experiences with currently available treatments. This input can inform FDA’s decisions and oversight both during drug development and during our review of a marketing application.
