Clinical Drug Trial; proposed new drug for Celiac Disease

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks

I've been lurking here for quite some time. I used to live in Santa

Clara, but moved to Palm Springs 3 years ago.

I've stayed in this group because I frequently travel back to the Bay

Area (Cupertino) for my employer.

I'm a fifty-something hippie vegan peacenik celiac with a celiac

mother and a celiac daughter.

Very early tomorrow morning I'm flying to Baltimore to participate in

a clinical drug trial, as a lab monkey, for a new drug, currently

called AT-1001, that may allow celiac folks to resume eating gluten.

I kid you not. Google " Alba Therapeutics " for more details.

I am to appear at Harbor Hospital in Baltimore on Friday morning for

what I expect will be an intake interview for this trial.

I've created a new blog to detail this process, it is at http://

celiac.wordpress.com/

I also maintain about 44 other websites, a small number of these are

related to celiac disease, especially

http://sensibleceliac.com/

I expect not to see this email list again until I return to

California on Sunday 12/4.
