Tribunal Orders Release Of PACE Data
Wednesday 17 August 2016

TRIBUNAL ORDERS RELEASE OF PACE DATA
A tribunal panel has ordered Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) to release anonymised data from the PACE trial to Mr. Alem Matthees, a patient who requested it. The ruling has important implications for CFS patients both in the UK and worldwide.
The David-vs-Goliath outcome represents the first successful attempt to begin to counter the PACE authors’ claims — believed by many scientists and thousands of patients to be highly questionable — that the PACE trial showed graded exercise and cognitive therapy to be effective treatments for CFS.
