Gastro Broadcast

Kevin Harlen interviews Robert Raleigh, chief operating officer and general counsel for Sebela Pharmaceuticals, which has been innovating in the area of colonoscopy prep since the 1980’s. Achieving adequate bowel preparation is challenging but critical to achieve a good-quality colonoscopy. But many studies have shown that a majority of patients have reported the preparation is the most difficult part of screening. Join Kevin and Rob as they discuss how Sebela is working on improving access to low-volume preparations and advocating for policies to remove barriers to effective colorectal cancer screening.
