Experimental gene therapy nearly eliminates epileptic seizures
Original: Epileptic seizures nearly vanish after people receive experimental gene therapy
Patients with severe epilepsy saw their seizures nearly disappear after receiving an experimental gene therapy, according to a new report covered by Nature. The findings suggest gene therapy could offer a major new treatment option for people whose seizures do not respond to drugs. Readers are reacting with enthusiasm, calling it a potentially landmark advance in neurology.
Why now: A new report of near-total seizure reduction in patients signals a possible breakthrough in treating drug-resistant epilepsy.
