Dr. David Van Sickle said: “Across my career, I have been focused on the opportunity for digitally-guided therapy to improve the management of the disease. A critical ingredient in managing a chronic illness is selecting an individualized drug dose regimen that is optimally safe and effective. However, more than three-quarters of the drugs approved by the FDA in recent years had only a single dose regimen, a monolithic strategy that leads to unwanted side effects, non-adherence, and sub-optimal illness management. CLM promises a new approach: enabling personalized software-enabled treatments that reduce unnecessary suffering and pressure on our healthcare systems. Joining Closed Loop Medicine’s Board of Directors is an exciting next step in my career, and I’m confident that the Company will have a significant impact on the industry.”
