Advocating for Research & Supporting Change – in Advocating for Research & Supporting Change – in the spirit of #GivingTuesday, please consider making a contribution to The Chandler Project 🦋 Through #advocacy, The Chandler Project brings #awareness and shines a light on research surrounding #achondroplasia and other skeletal dysplasias by offering support to a global community and network of patients, parents, and caregivers seeking information and resources on scientific breakthroughs and treatments for those affected. Living or caring for someone with a lifelong healthcare condition can sometimes feel very isolating and trapped inside a dark cocoon. Not everyone seeks change, but for those who do, The Chandler Project provides a safe sanctuary to spread their wings, fly, and find the lights to guide them on their own or loved one's healthcare journey. Your contributions support groundbreaking research, provide resources, and bring hope to individuals and families affected by achondroplasia & skeletal dysplasia. Together, let's pave the way for a future of understanding, support, and progress for change & hope for those who seek it. Contributions also go towards helping with the helping the costs of attendance fees for patients, parents, caregivers, and families who attend our annual conference. Thank you! 💜 #AchondroplasiaResearch #AchondroplasiaAwareness #TreatingAchondroplasia #HopeforAchondroplasia #FGFR3 #Dwarfism #DwarfismAwareness #SkeletalDysplasia #PharmACHON #PatientAdvocacy #PatientAdvocate #ResearchAdvocate #SupportingChange

via @murdoch_childrens • Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺 Drug may reduce SIDS in children with #achondroplasia A drug that boosts bone growth in children with achondroplasia may also reduce their chances of sudden infant death syndrome (#SIDS), sleep apnoea and needing surgery, according to a new study. The international research trial, led by Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI) and published in @thelancetgroup Child & Adolescent Health, has showed for the first time that #vosoritide treatment increases height, facial volume and the size of the #foramenmagnum, the hole at the base of the skull that connects the brain with the spinal cord, in children under five with achondroplasia. #MCRI is the largest vosoritide clinical trial site in the world and is led by Professor Ravi Savarirayan whose research team has previously shown how the drug improves bone growth development in patients, aged between 5-18 years, with achondroplasia. This latest study found the drug produces similar results in children and infants as young as four months.
