Race to stop ALS before it starts in High-Risk families
NCT ID NCT04856982
Summary
This study is testing whether a drug called tofersen can delay or prevent the onset of ALS in adults who carry a specific genetic mutation (SOD1) and show early biological signs of the disease but do not yet have any symptoms. The trial will compare the drug to a placebo in about 158 participants to see if starting treatment before symptoms appear is more effective. The main goal is to see if the drug can prevent or significantly delay the emergence of the debilitating symptoms of ALS.
