Why Personalized Trials

 

Managing hidden triggers in the real world

 

Patients with autoimmune diseases often are able to use one or more prescription therapies called immunosuppressants to gain control of their disease flares. Such therapies have made great strides in helping patients improve their quality of life by reducing the immune system's response to triggers hidden in their exposome.

Non-responders to such therapies remain vulnerable to the complex variables that make up their exposome. Their immune system continues to inflame and attack different cell types throughout their body, resulting in such uncontrolled symptoms as pain and inflammation in multiple joints, weakness, brain fog, digestive issues, sleep disorders, headaches and more. 

What is a non-responder?

A non-responder is someone who cannot tolerate their prescribed immunosuppressant or sees only minimal improvement in rheumatic symptoms, like joint pain or stiffness despite treatment. On average 40% of patients in randomized controlled trials are non-responders.

What is the exposome?


The exposome represents the totality of all internal biological and external environmental factors individuals are exposed to throughout their life. Such factors can include diet, sleep, stress, air and water quality, climate and exposure to mold, toxins, pathogens or UV light.

No two exposomes are the same, not even with identical twins.

It can be a perfect storm of triggers that lead to a deterioration in health. The type, timing and frequency of exposures to potential triggers all play a role.

Managing flares through trial & error

 

For people with unpredictable and debilitating symptoms, trial & error between additional medications, supplements and diets can lead to even more exposure to hidden triggers, with no way to know what helps and what hurts.

Understanding how hidden triggers, cross-reactivities, and interactions  in the exposome, directly impact one's own symptoms, is critical to preventing and managing flares.

How it Works

 

From trial & error to personalized trial & care

 

Mymee replaces the difficult and often dangerous trial & error process with personalized trial & care.

A self-evidence-based approach is critical to being able to directly correlate symptoms to unique triggers hidden within the exposome.

Mymee pairs each patient with a certified personalized trial coach who guides every step of the process with one-to-one support.

Outcomes & Research
 

Who may benefit from personalized trials

Mymee’s personalized trial & care platform is clinically validated for patients with unmanageable symptoms and complex sensitivities to their exposome, resulting from ≥1 autoimmune disease or long COVID. 

Enrolled patients reported a mean improvement across 59 patient-reported symptoms of 40% in an average of 17 weeks. 

Patients with moderate to severe symptoms achieved statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement across all ten HRQoL PROMIS domains.

In peer-reviewed studies of personalized trials, the mostly commonly reported symptoms at enrollment included*: 

  • Fatigue
  • Pain & aches in joints
  • Limitation of movement
  • Feeling of weakness 
  • Pain or cramps in muscles
  • Diarrhea and/or constipation
  • Night waking
  • Brain fog (poor memory, confusion)
  • Anxiety
  • Headaches
  • Faintness/dizziness
  • Numb or tingly sensation
  • Intestinal or abdominal pain
  • Breathing difficulties
  • Tremor or restless leg

The most frequent diseases in the studies included: 

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis
  • Lupus (SLE)
  • Psoriatic Arthritis
  • Ankylosing spondylitis
  • Long COVID
  • Mixed connective tissue disease
  • Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis plus rheumatic symptoms
  • Psoriasis plus rheumatic symptoms
  • Multiple sclerosis plus rheumatic symptoms

 

Additional research and analysis has demonstrated that personalized trials and care with Mymee has enabled patients to:

  • Improve their ability to work with their doctor to manage symptoms

  • Achieve statistically significant improvements in ten health-related quality of life (HRQoL) domains such as fatigue, pain, anxiety and cognitive function

  • Improve their feelings of hopelessness by an average of 75%
