By Cort Johnson in Health Rising.

Since February, Health Rising has described the development of a new drug produced for chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) by a small pharmaceutical company named Cortene in three blogs:

• The Cortene Way: New Drug to Be Trialed in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Soon – Pt. I
• Cortene II: A New Drug & A New Hypothesis For Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
• Cortene – A New Drug for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Pt III: The Clinical Trial

Now it’s time to test the drug!  Cortene’s trial has received the go-ahead from both the FDA and the Independent Review Board (IRB) and the trial will commence shortly, with Lucinda Bateman, MD, as the Principal Investigator, Suzanne Vernon, PhD, as Co-Investigator, and assisted by the experienced clinical trials team at the Bateman Horne Center.
