Advances in modern medicine allow us to treat fetuses and newborn babies for genetic or inherited diseases. Recent studies have expanded this capability from a small handful of conditions detected via heel stick tests to hundreds. A recent American Journal of Human Genetics study lists nearly 300 treatable fetal findings of actionable diseases.
Public health experts recognize the long-term advantages of investing in genetic screening. Approximately 12,500 infants each year—children who might otherwise face severe disability or even death—are identified and given a chance at a healthier life. Genetic screening is universally beneficial and incredibly effective. This progress, however, starkly contrasts the limited options of the past.
Modern prenatal screening employs non-invasive techniques to assess genetic risks in fetal development, enabling early detection of chromosomal conditions like Down syndrome and Trisomy 18, often in the first trimester. By analyzing fetal DNA fragments in a mother's blood, this method identifies potential genetic abnormalities and is safer than amniocentesis.
For postnatal screening, the heel stick test has been the standard method for newborn screening for decades. It is performed 24 to 48 hours after birth and involves pricking a baby's heel to collect a blood sample, which is analyzed for metabolic, hormonal, and genetic disorders. This test is crucial for identifying conditions like hypothyroidism, phenylketonuria, and sickle cell disease, which may not present symptoms at birth but can lead to serious complications if untreated. By 2024, this heel prick test will have become as routine as a lullaby in 48 states and Washington, D.C., safeguarding 98% of newborns in the United States.
While postnatal screening is essential, there is an increasing focus on empowering families with actionable insights even before birth. This includes providing a targeted list of treatable genetic disorders to guide pregnancy management, allowing for more effective gene therapy during fetal development when stem cells are more adaptable than post-birth treatments.
The actionable interventions for the newly detectable conditions fall into several distinct categories, each offering transformative potential. Collectively, these treatments address immediate health concerns, dramatically enhance the quality of life and extend longevity for affected individuals.
Gene therapy, including CRISPR and viral vectors, can correct genes responsible for specific conditions. Advanced delivery methods, such as nano-carriers, allow targeted therapy to fetal cells, improving effectiveness and minimizing complications compared to postnatal treatments. Early intervention can prevent permanent damage, with prenatal therapies showing success for conditions like spinal muscular atrophy. The emergence of FDA-approved gene therapies for beta-thalassemia and inherited blindness highlights the field's progress, with over 800 gene therapy programs worldwide improving patient outcomes.
Effective medication management is crucial for addressing metabolic disorders identified through early screening. This process involves selecting and administering specific medications and dietary adjustments tailored to each individual's needs. These measures help alleviate symptoms and prevent long-term complications.
Surgical interventions play a vital role in correcting congenital heart defects detected during infancy or childhood. When performed promptly, these surgeries can significantly improve long-term outcomes and enhance the quality of life for affected individuals.
Immunotherapy, including bone marrow transplants and gene therapy, is essential for managing immune deficiencies such as severe combined immunodeficiency. Early diagnosis and intervention can save lives, restore immune function and enable individuals to participate more fully in their communities.
The ability to diagnose and treat nearly 300 actionable genetic conditions in fetuses and newborns marks a significant milestone in modern medicine. From traditional heel stick tests to cutting-edge genomic sequencing, these advances empower families with critical information and life-saving options. As research continues to evolve, integrating these technologies into routine prenatal and neonatal care promises to redefine pediatric healthcare, offering hope for conditions once deemed untreatable.

Jaguar Health Provides Update on Meeting with FDA Discussing Statistically Significant Results of Responder Analysis of Breast Cancer Patients in Phase 3 OnTarget Trial and Potential Approval Pathway for Crofelemer
Productive and collaborative discussion on proposed pathway by the company to bring crofelemer to approval for cancer therapy-related diarrhea (CTD) in patients with metastatic breast cancer receiving selected targeted therapies The currently estimated US metastatic breast cancer population would qualify as an orphan population, which aligns with company's core focus on orphan diseases Company plans to promptly pursue authorization to initiate expanded access program for patients with breast cancer who may not be eligible for a potential pivotal treatment trial with crofelemer in patients with metastatic breast cancer SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / June 9, 2025 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) (Jaguar) family company Napo Pharmaceuticals (Napo) today provided a recap on the company's assessment of the in-person Type C Meeting on May 28, 2025 with the Division of Gastroenterology of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to discuss the statistically significant responder analysis results for adult patients with breast cancer in Napo's recently conducted Phase 3 OnTarget trial. 'We were very happy to take part in the face-to-face Type C Meeting, the catalyst for which was the positive data in the subpopulation of breast cancer patients from our OnTarget trial,' said Lisa Conte, Jaguar's founder, president, and CEO. 'Napo proposed two simultaneous potential pathways during the meeting for making crofelemer available to metastatic breast cancer patients with the significant unmet medical need of CTD: conducting a pivotal treatment trial to facilitate approval of crofelemer for CTD in this focused patient population; and the prompt pursuit of authorization to initiate an expanded access program for breast cancer patients with CTD who may not be eligible for this study, including breast cancer patients in the adjuvant and neoadjuvant settings. We are pleased with the constructive and productive discussion that took place with the FDA during the meeting. Last week the FDA formally acknowledged both of these key discussion points in correspondence to Napo. We plan to submit a protocol to the FDA for a pivotal treatment trial for a smaller number of metastatic breast cancer patients using crofelemer.' Patient advocates participated in the Type C Meeting to share their raw and personal experience with CTD, including a metastatic breast cancer patient with uncontrollable diarrhea who received a prescription for crofelemer. 'The design of the protocol for OnTarget was based on a survey of cancer patients. Today there are close to 100 approved targeted cancer agents. Thanks to these amazing drugs, metastatic cancer patients are living longer, frequently rendering cancer, and CTD, chronic ailments with which to live. To deepen our understanding of the current population of metastatic cancer breast with CTD, and ensure the clinical meaningfulness of the design of the anticipated pivotal treatment trial, we plan to conduct a new survey of this cancer patient population,' Conte said. The currently estimated US metastatic breast cancer population potentially qualifies as an orphan population, in alignment with the company's core focus on orphan diseases. The company therefore intends to request orphan drug designation from the FDA for the CTD indication in this population. Given crofelemer's novel and paradigm-shifting mechanism of action, the company also plans to seek Breakthrough Therapy designation and/or Fast Track designation from the FDA to support potentially expedited regulatory approval in the US for crofelemer for CTD in metastatic breast cancer patients. 'Embracing a sharp strategic focus on orphan indications seems to fit with the new administration's efforts and philosophy,' said Conte. 'Dr. Marty Makary, the new Commissioner of the FDA, commented in April 2025 that the agency will open a new regulatory pathway based on what he called a 'plausible mechanism,' focusing mainly on rare or incurable diseases.' As expressed during the Type C Meeting, the data from the first-of-its-kind prophylactic OnTarget study is invaluable, providing new insights into the natural history of the important and debilitating side effect of CTD. Diarrhea is a common side effect of targeted cancer therapies and can lead to dose changes, treatment delays, and often cessation of lifesaving cancer therapy. The benefit to risk ratio of crofelemer is well-documented, as the active agent has been commercialized for the approved indication of HIV-related diarrhea since 2012, with no crofelemer-related reported serious adverse events. In both the US and European Union, crofelemer has been granted orphan drug designation for the orphan diseases of short bowel syndrome with intestinal failure and microvillus inclusion disease. Crofelemer has been granted orphan drug designation for treatment of diarrhea in cholera in the US, where cholera is an orphan disease. Orphan drug designation in the US qualifies the sponsor of a drug for various development incentives, including tax credits for qualified clinical testing and relief of filing fees. Additionally, orphan drug designation in the US provides a seven-year period of marketing exclusivity to the first sponsor who obtains marketing approval for the designated orphan drug. While the multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled OnTarget pivotal trial did not meet its primary endpoint, the subgroup of adult breast cancer patients achieved statistically significant results in the responder analysis. In the responder analysis of patients with breast cancer on targeted therapies, crofelemer CTD prophylaxis resulted in a greater proportion of monthly responders of diarrhea improvement compared to placebo. Patients with breast cancer accounted for 183 of the 287 participants in this unprecedented prophylactic clinical trial of crofelemer for diarrhea in adults with 10 solid tumor types receiving targeted therapy with or without standard chemotherapy. The OnTarget results in breast cancer patients were the subject of a poster presentation on December 11, 2024, at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, and additional significant results in adult breast cancer patients from the OnTarget study have been accepted for presentation as an oral rapid e-poster at the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) Annual Meeting in June 2025 in Seattle, Washington.

The segment premiered nationwide on Monday, June 9, at 7:30 a.m. PT / ET and provided expert insights on lifestyle considerations and treatment options for managing rosacea. 'We're proud to see Emrosi featured on 'The Balancing Act,' bringing national visibility to what we believe is a potential paradigm shift in the treatment of rosacea,' said Claude Maraoui, Co-Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Journey Medical. 'This segment is an important opportunity to educate patients, caregivers and healthcare providers about Emrosi's unique formulation and benefits, as well as our broader commitment to advancing dermatologic care through innovative, patient-focused solutions.' The feature included insights from Pura Dermatology's Saurabh Lodha, MD, FAAD, who discussed Emrosi's unique formulation and its significance in the treatment landscape for rosacea. Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in November 2024, Emrosi is the lowest-dose oral minocycline available, offering patients an effective treatment option with a favorable safety profile. It is available by prescription at specialty pharmacy chains. In addition to the June 9 premiere, the segment will be rebroadcast on Thursday, June 19, at 7:30 a.m. PT/ ET. It can also be viewed on the show's website, About RosaceaRosacea is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory skin condition that most commonly presents with symptoms such as deep facial redness, acne-like inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules) and spider veins (telangiectasia). According to The National Rosacea Society, it is estimated that rosacea affects over 16 million Americans and as many as 415 million people worldwide. Rosacea is most frequently seen in adults between 30 and 50 years of age. Surveys conducted by The National Rosacea Society report that more than 90 percent of rosacea patients said their condition had lowered their self-confidence and self-esteem, and 41 percent stated that it had caused them to avoid public contact or cancel social engagements. Among rosacea patients with severe symptoms, 88 percent said the disorder had adversely affected their professional interactions, and 51 percent said they had missed work because of their condition. Important Safety InformationIndication: EMROSI™ is indicated for the treatment of inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules) of rosacea in adults. Adverse Events: The most common adverse reaction reported by ≥1% of subjects treated with EMROSI and more frequently than in subjects receiving placebo was dyspepsia. Contraindications: EMROSI should not be taken by patients who have a history of hypersensitivity to any of the tetracyclines. Warnings/Precautions: Cases of anaphylaxis, serious skin reactions (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome), erythema multiforme, and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome have been reported postmarketing with minocycline use in patients with acne. If DRESS syndrome is recognized, discontinue EMROSI immediately. Use during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy and childhood up to the age of 8 years may cause permanent discoloration of the teeth and reversible inhibition of bone growth. Discontinue EMROSI use if Antibiotic-Associated Colitis occurs. Discontinue EMROSI if liver injury is suspected. Patients experiencing light-headedness, dizziness or vertigo should be cautioned about driving vehicles or operating heavy machinery. Clinical manifestations include headache, blurred vision, diplopia, and vision loss. Discontinue EMROSI immediately if symptoms occur. Symptoms may be manifested by fever, rash, arthralgia, and malaise. Discontinue EMROSI immediately if symptoms occur. Patients should minimize or avoid exposure to natural or artificial sunlight while using EMROSI. Tetracycline-class antibiotics are known to cause hyperpigmentation. EMROSI may induce hyperpigmentation in many organs, including nails, bone, skin, eyes, thyroid, visceral tissue, oral cavity, sclerae and heart valves. Because of the potential for drug-resistant bacteria to develop during the use of EMROSI, use EMROSI only as indicated. If superinfection occurs, discontinue EMROSI and institute appropriate therapy. Perform periodic laboratory evaluations of organ systems, including hematopoietic, renal and hepatic studies. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA.

Salmonella outbreak: Recalled eggs sold at Walmart, Safeway, and elsewhere sicken people in 7 states
A significant recall of 1.7 million dozen eggs is underway. The eggs were believed to be the source of a salmonella outbreak that has sickened dozens of people across seven states and so far led to 21 people being hospitalized. They were distributed to several major retailers, including Walmart and Safeway. Here's what you need to know about the recall and outbreak. Shell eggs recalled due to salmonella fears On June 6, the August Egg Company of Hilmar, California, issued a voluntary recall of 1.7 million dozen eggs produced at its facilities. The company initiated the recall after it discovered that the eggs are feared to have been contaminated with salmonella, a potentially deadly bacterium. On the same day, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published August Egg Company's recall notice on its website, while the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced an investigation into a multistate outbreak of salmonella linked to eggs. Dozens sickened and hospitalized across 7 states The CDC's investigation has found that eggs produced by August Egg Company are linked to dozens of cases of people becoming ill after consuming them. The agency's latest data shows that there are so far 79 cases linked to the August Egg Company's recalled products. Of those cases, 21 have resulted in hospitalizations. Thankfully, no deaths have been reported so far. The cases are spread across seven states: Arizona, California, Kentucky, Nebraska, New Jersey, Nevada, and Washington. Of those states, California has the most number of cases, at 63, followed by Washington and Nevada, with four cases each. Arizona has had three cases, Nebraska and New Jersey two cases, and Kentucky has one. However, many people who become sick with salmonella see their symptoms resolve without contacting a health professional, so the actual number of cases could be higher. When and where were the eggs distributed? According to the notice posted on the FDA's website, the recalled eggs were distributed between February and May. The retail locations that received the eggs include: Walmart Save Mart FoodMaxx Lucky Smart & Final Safeway Raleys Food 4 Less Ralphs The eggs were distributed between February 3 and May 15, 2025, to Save Mart, FoodMaxx, Lucky, Smart & Final, Safeway, Raleys, Food 4 Less, and Ralphs locations in California and Nevada. Those eggs had sell-by dates ranging from March 4 to June 4, 2025. The eggs were also distributed between February 3 through May 6, 2025, to Walmart stores in California, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, New Mexico, Nebraska, Indiana, and Illinois. Those eggs had sell-by dates ranging from March 4 to June 19, 2025. What eggs are included in the recall? Over two dozen egg products packaged under multiple brands are included in the recall. The recall notice states that the eggs were packaged in fiber or plastic cartons and have a plant code number P-6562 or CA5330 with the Julian Dates between 32 to 126. Photographs of the cartons can be found here. The item names of the egg products included in the recall, along with their plant number and carton UPC are: Item Name Plant Number Carton UPC Clover Organic Large Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 070852010427 First Street Cage Free Large Brown Loose 1 case=150 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 041512039638 Nulaid Medium Brown Cage Free 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 071230021042 Nulaid Jumbo Brown Cage Free 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 071230021011 O Organics Cage Free Large Brown 6 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 079893401522 O Organics Large Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 079893401508 O Organics Large Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 079893401546 Marketside Organic Large Cage Free Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 681131122771 Marketside Organic Large Cage Free Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 681131122801 Marketside Large Cage Free Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 681131122764 Marketside Large Cage Free Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 681131122795 Raley's Large Cage Free Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 046567033310 Raley's Large Cage Free Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 046567040325 Raley's Organic Large Cage Free Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 046567028798 Raley's Organic Large Cage Free Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 046567040295 Simple Truth Medium Brown Cage Free 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 011110099327 Simple Truth Large Brown Cage Free 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 011110873743 Sun Harvest Organic Cage Free Large Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 041512131950 Sun Harvest Organic Cage Free Large Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 041512145162 Sunnyside Large Brown Cage Free 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 717544211747 Sunnyside Large Brown Cage Free 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 717544211754 Sunnyside Organic Cage Free Large Brown 12 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 717544201441 Sunnyside Organic Cage Free Large Brown 18 eggs P-6562 or CA-5330 717544211761 Loose Small Brown Cage Free-1 box= 6 flats (1 flat= 30 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA Loose Medium Brown Cage Free -1 box= 6 flats (1 flat= 30 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA Loose Medium Brown Organic -1 box= 6 flats (1 flat= 30 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA Loose Large Brown Organic-1 box= 6 flats (1 flat= 30 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA Loose Jumbo Brown Cage Free -1 box=5 flats(1 flat=20 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA Loose Jumbo Brown Organic -1 box=5 flats(1 flat=20 eggs) P-6562 or CA-5330 NA What is Salmonella? Salmonella is a potentially deadly bacterium that is usually contracted after eating contaminated foods. The CDC says that typical symptoms of a salmonella infection include diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, which typically present between six hours and six days after exposure to the bacteria. Typical salmonella infections last between four and seven days, and most people recover without treatment. However, salmonella infections can also cause severe illness in individuals, especially those who are younger than five, older than 65, or have weakened immune systems. What should I do if I have the recalled eggs? According to the CDC, if you have the recalled eggs in your possession, you should not consume them. Instead, you should throw the eggs out or return them to their place of purchase for a refund. You should also sanitize all surfaces that may have come into contact with the eggs.
