Health Equity in Clinical Trials is the precursor to ensuring that all Patients can have access to therapies and cures that will work for them. During this intimate discussion\, our panel of experts will share real-life examples of how we can work together to help build trust and engage populations that have been historically “underengaged” to strengthen diversity in clinical trials and expand health equity. \n \nPanelists:\n\nTinamarie Duff\, Global Lead\, Disability Advancement Workplace Network\, Bristol Myers Squibb\nElizabeth Barksdale\, Ph.D.\, Director\, Regulatory Affairs & Scientific Policy\, LUNGevity Foundation\nAmesika Nyaku\, M.D.\, Infectious Disease\, University Hospital\nSunanda Gaur\, M.D.\, Director\, Clinical Trials\, Professor\, Department of Pediatrics\, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School\n\nModerator:\n\nMartina Flammer\, M.D.\, Chief Medical Officer\, Insmed\n\n\n\n\n\n10:05 a.m. – 10:55 a.m.\n\n\nENGAGE: The Impact of Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) Practices on Patients\nClick here for an educational infographic on PBMs.\nAmerica’s thriving life sciences industry has enabled new and innovative drugs to come to market\, promising a better quality of life for people in New Jersey and around the world. However\, PBM practices have proven to drive up treatment costs causing Patients to leave the pharmacy counter without the medicines they came to get – worsening their quality of life and threatening their health outcomes.

Kefalas\, Founder of The Calliope Joy Foundation and author of “Harnessing Grief: A Mother’s Quest for Meaning and Miracles\,” will share her inspiring story of a mother who took unimaginable tragedy and used her grief as a force to do good by transforming the lives of others. When Maria Kefalas’s daughter Calliope was diagnosed with a degenerative\, incurable genetic disease\, the last thing Maria expected to discover in herself was a superpower. This superpower of grief manifested in the realization that in order for Maria and her family to save themselves\, they would need to find a way to save others. So\, they set out to raise money so that they\, in their son PJ’s words\, could “find a cure for Cal’s disease.”\n\n\n\n12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.\n\nNetworking Lunch\n\n\n\n\nA must attend program for anyone who advocates on behalf of Patients!
