Lupus Together for Clinical Trials Today
More than 1.5 million Americans and millions more world wide suffer
from lupus-a disease for which there is no known cause, few
medicines, and no cure.
Finally now, after decades of little action, things are happening.
The community is seeing unprecedented interest from biotechnology
and pharmaceutical companies that translates into dozens of
companies interested in lupus and even more trials for lupus
patients. As few as seven or eight
years ago, there were just two to three trials in progress. Today
there are 12 to 15. Finding a safe and effective medicine for lupus
is our best hope for stopping the destruction of this disease.
What is the goal of this program?
To get as many people enrolled in clinical trials for lupus as
possible, so that the lupus community can finally get some answers
on prevention, treatments, and a cure.

Walk for
Lupus Now
As the nation's premier walking event for lupus, the Lupus
Foundation of America's Walk for Lupus Now promotes physical
activity and healthy living in a family-friendly setting. This year,
thousands of walkers will participate in more than 30 chapter events
across the country. They will be walking to raise funds to save
lives from lupus, an autoimmune disease which affects more than 1.5
million Americans.
Many Walk for Lupus Now participants have lupus, or are family,
friends or caregivers to someone who has lupus. People often walk
"in honor" of a friend or family member who has lupus or "in memory"
of someone who lost his/her battle with lupus. They are joined by
thousands of caring people who walk as individuals or as part of a
team to raise funds to bring an end to this life-diminishing and
life-threatening disease.
Funds raised from Walk for Lupus Now Walks will support lupus
research, education programs, and patient and family support
services. You will be helping people with lupus in your community
who need your help.
Get your friends and family to walk and raise funds for Walk for
Lupus Now in your city. Together, we can find a cure. To find a Walk
for Lupus Now Walk, contact your local chapter of the Lupus
Foundation of America.
We will post 2009 info as soon as it is available to us.
