NAF Supports FARA’s Call to Action

January 15, 2021; Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA) is encouraging Reata Pharmaceuticals to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) for Omaveloxolone, which recently completed a Phase III clinical trial as a treatment for Friedreich’s Ataxia (FA). FARA is also urging the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to consider approving the NDA. FARA has prepared a letter that will be submitted to Reata Pharmaceuticals and the FDA; they are looking for supporters to sign the letter. NAF submitted a letter of support. To date, FARA has received more than 40,000 signatures from patients, their family and friends, and rare disease advocates. We want you to sign on too!
