The Drug Trial That Went Horribly Wrong

[@AugustBreak]

It’s truly strange watching British documentaries as an American. American documentaries are so loud with constant motion and nonstop drama. I appreciate watching something that takes its time to tell the story without the need for embellishment.

I have been receiving a type of monoclonal antibody infusion every 4 weeks for the last 10 years to treat an autoimmune disease. This medication saved my life and allows me to continue surviving. The people who are willing to submit themselves to clinical trials like this are part of the reason I’m still alive, and I have so much respect for them.

My son has a number of symptoms that are autoimmune in nature rendering him at 35 unable to work and using a cane but some days unable to leave the bed. He has been given possible bur never firm diagnosis for everything from MS to Parkinsons to Meneirs to heavy metal intoxication as he shows signs of all. One of the neurologists who seemed most hopeful finding neuropathy and all the signs of his own immune system attacking his digestive and nervous systoms suggested a drug to him which was described as a chemo drug originally for cancer patients but has shown to aid patients such as he. God i wish we coyld speak to you to somehow find out if you have a similar set of issues. If so much comfort it would be while making this very important and heart wrenching decision

For those of you making fun of the doctor for asking if they're okay, it's actually a very good practice. First of all, he's making sure they're still responsive. Second of all, he's trying to keep them calm. If you saw someone crack their skull open, you wouldn't start shouting "OMG ARE YOU OKAY!?

Big pharma doing big pharma things, and hiding behind obscure legal loopholes and endless legal battles to do whatever tf they want. It's a way too big of a business, in the hands of way too few people. They're artificially creating a lack of ADHD medication so they can jack up the prices. They claimed oxycodone is barely addictive and can be prescribed for even minor pain and injuries. They said Xanax and Lyrica are perfect risk-free options for generalized anxiety disorder. They constantly make vitally important things like epipens and insulin more expensive. They also try to invent medicine for the symptoms rather than cures. And isn't it also kinda convenient how often you need to take booster shots for this new kind of vaccine? I know it's basically a business and they need to profit, but they're building their empire on human suffering and dead bodies. The amount of greed is just overwhelming.

To those who are interested, the reason was finally found. Fair warning: I'm neither a chemist nor a physician, so I cannot guarantee I summed it up correctly. Also, before you jump to any conclusion or think "It sounds obvious that it was bound to go wrong", I suggest looking into the reports on your own, to understand the complexity of in vivo chemistry. TGN1412 was designed to bind to the CD28 antigen of T lymphocyte cells. Those T lymphocyte come in two sub-types: "Regulatory T cells", and "Memory T cells". TGN1412 was designed/intended to stimulate the Regulatory T cells, which are the same in humans as in the monkeys. However, the Memory T cells have that CD28 antigen as well for humans, but not in the monkeys. And those cells started to emit a high amount of cytokines when activated by TGN1412. This widespread sudden and overpaced emission of cytokines is what is called cytokine storm, and the cytokines attack and kill cells. This is what is called and happens in an inflammation. In a normal functioning immune system, this should happen in direct proximity of an infected cell to kill that cell (and only a few others as collateral damage, which are easily replaced in a healthy person). But here it happened in the whole body at once, basically attacking all cells everywhere at the same time.

@@sunandmoon139 That's not actually what it is. It's when a person experiences a decrease in symptom severity, because they believe they are receiving medication. The placebo effect does not cure illnesses, it just helps to relieve symptoms.

[@orchdork775]

@@sunandmoon139 It has to do with believing that you are receiving a treatment that will make you feel better. I reccomend that you look up some examples and/or articles about it on google, as it's actually quite fascinating. There is also the nocebo effect, which is when a person believes a treatment will have negative side effects, so they end up experiencing those side effects simply because they expected to experience them. There have been trials done where one group of people is give sugar pills (though the trial participants were told it was real medication) and were not warned of any potential side effects, while the second group received the same placebo pills, but were told a list of potential side effects they might experience. The people in the second group reported experiencing those side effects at a much higher rate than people in the first group. By believing they might feel unwell, the trial participants actually caused themselves to feel sick. It really goes to show how much your mindset can effect you. This even manifests psychologically as well. For example, if you believe that you won't ever succeed, chances are you will have a lessened ability to perform tasks, low motivation, and little dedication. One of the biggest effects would be that you stop trying, and that you never actually put 100% into something. I mean, why bother putting your all into something if you are sure you will fail?? Alternatively, if you believe that you could be very successful, you would likely take way more opportunities, work harder and put more effort into things, have high motivation, and be very dedicated. These changes in behaivor have a serious effect on your life, and could actually cause someone to fail at things simply because they are convinced they aren't capable of succeeding. This is called fortune telling in psychology, if I remember correctly. I'm very guilty of doing this myself, actually. It's harder than it sounds to let go of all the negative beliefs one has about themselves and start believing in themselves all of the sudden. It's really hard, and at this point I actually fortune tell about fortune telling. I know that I do it a lot, so I end up doing it even more simply because I expect myself to. It's maddening 😂😭

I found this a very interesting article. My granddaughter had a rare cancer at the age of 2 and ALL of her treatment was through international clinical trials. Part of her treatment was immunotherapy, where one of the risks was a cytokine storm because of the use of monoclonal antibodies. After nearly four years of treatment she is now five years in remission. The harsh treatments she had have left her with a variety of health problems, but she is a happy 10 year old now and very precious to our family. Whilst she has contributed to many clinical trials through her treatments, we are indebted to the children who have gone before her and may have since died of the illness or the treatment.

The reason things like this are big stories is because of how rare events like this are. The vast, vast majority of first for human clinical trials have the worst problem of people withdrawing due to side effects. This occurs in both the cohort getting the drug and the cohort getting placebo. Multiple fatalities in a single trial is so unusual as to lead to videos like this. The risk is higher in rare illness, where there just fundamentally isn't as much data in. Even then, like in this case, actual death is exceptionally rare.

[@neamhdhlisteanach6720]

Exactly. He was just there to inject them and make sure they were ok. It was completely out of his control

[@vVaader]

I honestly think no one is responsible.they've tested it on mice and the mice did not show any of the probants symptoms. They also warn you and hand you a contract where they warn you that there might be some serious long term complications while testing the drug. Sure I wouldn't hope anyone was in their position and this was a very dangerous situation, however the probants knew that there might be serious complications. So in this case, no one is to blame and those who went running to their lawyer are nothing but morrons from my point of view.

[@phasorthunder1157]

But they injected humans with the drug much more faster then was done on previous testing on animals.

@@phasorthunder1157 TBH, the speed of the injection likely had little overall change on the drastic effects. The severe reaction in people probably came from the differences in T cells between mice and humans, which was newer knowledge at the time.

I mean this is why we test drugs before mass distribution and why we test on animals.

[@cutebutsadisticable]

The doctors and nurses have to remain calm and clinical. Honestly alot of people react well to that as it shows everything is under control. If a doctor panics I lose all faith in his/her training. It's been proven a doctor who stays calm and collected keeps the nursing staff calm and help the patient stay calm too. They also save more lives that way.

That’s the doctors’ way of staying calm and keeping the patient calm as well. If they panic or show signs of panic, then the patient panics too.
