My Real Bio
I’m Luke, this is all very difficult and I never thought I’d be doing any of this.
I was an actor and a writer once, now I’m trying to do whatever I can to
shorten the process of drug development to save kids with rare
neurological diseases, like my daughter. I’ve met remarkably dedicated
people in the last few months and ask for help daily. I have no idea what
tomorrow will be like.
#PennMedMDBR2018 #GGPennRareSymposium
Gritty Collaboration
1. Tell the real story
• Don’t waste time.
2. Articulate unmet needs beyond a cure
• What is meaningful change?
3. Get rid of the box
• Risk. Fail. Risk again.
4. Build community and clinical cohort simultaneously
• Share information and eliminate parallel work.

My Rare Disease Journey
◼ My daughter Isabel is born with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS) in January, 2000
◼ Joined the Board of PWSA(USA) the next year
◼ Took the opportunity to join a pharmaceutical company—Shire-- (in finance)
◼ Now Chief Business Officer at Strongbridge Biopharma plc (a rare disease focused company)
◼ 18 years later, there are FIVE late-stage clinical trials for PWS starting or about to start
◼ My daughter has significant challenges remaining but is graduating high school, is normal height/weight and LOVES horse back riding!
– Hopefully, future research and development will further improve her potential quality of life

My Learnings: My Perspective as an Advocate and a Pharmaceutical Executive
◼ An organized, active group of patients, parents or advocates can make a difference- CONNECT THE DOTS
– Cultivate “key opinion leaders”
– Collect database of patients
– Document the disease (registry, patient-related outcomes, genetics, etc.)
– Provide grants for early scientific research (fill in gaps for NIH and pharma)
– Advocate at the FDA (they want to hear the voice of the patient)
– Attend or create conferences (both patient advocacy and medically focused)
– Collect samples (cells, brains, etc.)
– Build awareness (clinicians and pharma companies)
– YOU ARE THE EXPERTS
◼ Don’t forget to focus on yourself and the patient
