Dr. Carrie Buchanan shares strategies to manage anxiety in individuals with Fragile X syndrome, including non-pharmacological treatments and medication options.
Discover the latest in Fragile X research with insights from our May 2024 webinar. Learn about new FRAXA grants, key clinical trials, and scientific updates that are shaping the future of Fragile X syndrome treatments.
Can a combination of drugs make a meaningful difference for people with Fragile X? A new clinical trial is going to find out. 15-20 adult men with Fragile X will be included in this trial to test the effects of an available drug and a nutritional supplement taken together.
A global webinar titled “Fragile X Syndrome: In Pursuit of a Cure,” took place on July 22, 2021 to commemorate World Fragile X Day. This complimentary event is co-organized with WuXi AppTec. We are delighted that more than 5,000 registered from more than 50 countries worldwide, coming together to raise awareness of Fragile X, and to foster collaborations towards effective treatments and ultimately a cure.
