Serious Neurologic Adverse Events in Tofersen Clinical Trials for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Tofersen is approved for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) due to superoxide dismutase 1 mutations (SOD1‐ALS). Here we report serious neurologic adverse events (AEs) that occurred in the tofersen clinical trials in people with SOD1‐ALS.

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Survival Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1)‐related spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is characterized by α‐motor neuron degeneration, with sensory function assumed to be clinically preserved. However, recent studies in severely affected patients and animal models have challenged this view.

A multidisciplinary approach to dosing nusinersen for spinal muscular atrophy
In December 2016, nusinersen gained FDA approval as the first pharmacologic treatment for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a disorder of motor neurons and the leading genetic cause of infant mortality. Nusinersen's intrathecal delivery requirement, strict dosage protocol, and accelerated FDA approval presented a challenge to health care centers hoping to

Convective infux/glymphatic system: tracers injected into the CSF enter and leave the brain along separate periarterial basement membrane pathways [PDF]
Tracers injected into CSF pass into the brain alongside arteries and out again. This has been recently termed the "glymphatic system" that proposes tracers enter the brain along periarterial "spaces" and leave the brain along the walls of veins.
