Race to stop SMA before it starts: new drug trial for babies

NCT ID NCT07221669

Summary

This study is testing a drug called salanersen (BIIB115) in babies who have a genetic diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) but have not yet shown any symptoms. The goal is to see if starting treatment very early can prevent the onset of SMA symptoms or make them much less severe. Researchers will give the drug via spinal injection and closely monitor the babies' motor skill development, like sitting and walking, over several years.
