Dr. Hubbard's Update on the FDA
On Wednesday 7/25/12 an FDA Fidld Office inspector met with one of our sites and told them verbally to discontinue enrolling subjects in the Hubbard Foundation Registry. The inspector said that they were aware the Hubbard Foundation had requested ID exemption and believed that new guidelines will be prepared by September. The Hubbard Foundation has still not received a direct response from the FDA. We are still confident there is no legitimate reason for the FDA to deny our request.
About the Hubbard Foundation
When David Hubbard MD, world renowned neurologist, and his wife Arlene Hubbard MS OTR/L, learned their son had Multiple Sclerosis (MS), they decided to use fMRI to investigate Multiple Sclerosis in order to find prevention, treatment and ultimately a cure for this disease.
The mission of the Hubbard Foundation is to research the vascular component of neurological disorders, like Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI) in Multiple Sclerosis, using functional MRI (fMRI) as well MRV, flow-quantification, perfusion and other measures. There are three components to the Foundation:
Research
Treatment
Education
As of June 2012 over 400 people were enrolled at our center in San Diego, and almost 300 through the national registry. Thousands more receive information through our online educational resources and annual conference.
Let's go with the flow!
