Huntington disease breakthrough: New potential therapy that restores motor function being planned for clinical trial
February 13, 2012 by NewsBot
Medical researchers have discovered a promising new therapy for Huntington disease that restores lost motor skills and may delay or stop the progression of the disease based on lab model tests, says the lead researcher. Because the new therapy uses a molecule already being used in clinical trials for other diseases, it could be used in a clinical trial for Huntington disease within the next one to two years.
