Scientists at the University of Sydney have uncovered a malfunctioning version of the SOD1 protein that clumps inside brain cells and fuels Parkinson’s disease. In mouse models, restoring the ...
A newly discovered brain protein linked to Parkinson’s offers hope for targeted therapies that could slow or prevent disease ...
Groundbreaking research by the University of Sydney has identified a new brain protein involved in the development of Parkinson's disease and a way to modify it, paving the way for future treatments ...
The disease, which is caused by mutations in the SOD1 gene, accounts for approximately 10% to 20% of genetic ALS cases and 1% to 2% of sporadic ALS cases, according to the ALS Association. 7.
Now, scientists at the University of Sydney have made an exciting discovery: they’ve found a new brain protein linked to Parkinson’s and figured out how to modify it. This cou ...
In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned adults with SOD1 ALS in a 2:1 ratio to receive eight doses of tofersen (100 mg) or placebo over a period of 24 weeks. The primary end point was the ...
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved a new drug Tuesday to treat a rare form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS.. The drug Qalsody (tofersen) is expected to help people with a very ...
The decision on the SOD1 ALS program does not impact Voyager’s other gene therapy programs; the Company continues to expect IND filings in 2025 from Neurocrine Biosciences for the program in ...
