New therapies for spinal muscular atrophy: where we stand and what is next.

ABSTRACT: The natural history of spinal muscular atrophy has been radically changed by the advent of improved standards of care and the availability of disease-modifying therapies. The aim of this paper is to provide the current therapeutic scenario including new perspectives and to report the challenges related to new phenotypes a few years after the therapies have become available. The paper also includes a review of real-world data that provides information on safety and efficacy in individuals that were not included in clinical trials. Special attention is paid to future perspectives both in terms of new drugs that are currently investigated in clinical trials or providing details on current developments in the use of the available drugs, including combination therapies or new modalities of dose
