FDA and NIH Launch CURE ID Crowdsourcing App for Patients with Infectious Diseases

Shots:

• The app is an internet-based repository which allows providers to report their experiences treating difficult-to-treat infectious diseases with novel uses of existing FDA-approved drugs via website, a smartphone and other mobile devices
• The CURE ID app enables the crowdsourcing of medical information from HCPs to guide potentially life-saving interventions and facilitate the development of new therapies for neglected diseases
• The app consists of a systematic collection of real-world experience which aid in identifying drug candidates for additional study, encourage drug development process and serve as a resource to HCPs for treating patients if no safe option is available
