One-Shot spinal injection aims to silence deadly ALS gene

NCT ID NCT06100276

Summary

This early-stage study is testing a one-time gene therapy called AMT-162 for adults with ALS caused by a specific faulty SOD1 gene. The therapy is injected into the spinal fluid and aims to 'silence' the harmful gene to slow the disease. Researchers will first check if the treatment is safe and tolerated in a small group of 20 participants, while also looking for early signs that it might help.
