What Is The Pipeline?

Sometimes you may hear parents/caregivers and healthcare professionals talk about medicines that are “coming down the pipeline.”  But what exactly is it?

Basically, it’s the list of the latest drugs that researchers are working on to help fight the disease.  There’s an interactive page on the CFF website that shows you what stage of development/study the drugs are in, and you can track the progress there.

Interested in seeing some of the drugs that are in the hands of patients or what stage of a study something is in?  Check out the pipeline by following this link: http://www.cff.org/research/DrugDevelopmentPipeline/
