If you have made a diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type 1 (also known as Werdnig–Hoffman disease) in a child, then you have vivid memories of informing desperate parents that there is nothing you can do for their child. Two innovative therapies for SMA may now bring some hope — but what do they mean for patients and their families? SMA, which is one of the most common inheritable neuromuscular diseases, is a degenerative motor neuron disorder that leads to muscle atrophy and respiratory failure. Patients with the most severe form rarely survive beyond 2 years of age. The . . .
