In a major medical breakthrough, the US FDA has approved a new oral drug for Thalassemia, offering hope for a transfusion-free life. Discussing the development, Dr Sanjeev Bagai, Chairman of Nephron Clinic, states that the drug ‘would definitely be a game changer’ as it addresses the root cause of beta protein dysfunction.
