Drug trial seeks to slow devastating rare disease in infants

NCT ID NCT03822013

Summary

This study tested whether a drug called Miglustat could help control symptoms in infants with Sandhoff and Tay-Sachs diseases, which are rare, fatal genetic disorders. For one year, some infants received the drug while others did not, and researchers tracked changes in symptoms like seizures, feeding problems, and hospital visits. The goal was to see if the treatment could improve quality of life by managing the progression of these severe conditions.
