Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a group of neurological disorders that cause a loss in muscle movement due to depleting motor neurons and progressive muscle wasting. The disease can be either present from birth or onset in later life. It can cause many issues for the sufferer such as muscle twitching, respiratory issues, problems with swallowing, scoliosis, and contraction of joints. The condition can be classified differently depending on severity and can be fatal in infants and adults.
SMA is caused by a defect of the SMN 1 gene. This gene codes for a protein called survival motor neuron (SMN) which is crucial for the survival of motor neurons in the brain. Diagnosis of the disease is tested with symptoms and confirmed with a DNA test.
Biogen launched a therapy called Spinraza, also known as Nusinersen, which is an effective treatment for SMA. Other companies are now looking to capture a market share of Spinraza through the development of new treatments. Both pharmaceutical powerhouses and small pharmaceutical companies look to drive the development of pipeline products.
Challenges in the development of drugs include a need for long-term safety and clinical data for SMA drugs; the need for early diagnosis to give patients effective therapy; and the need to gain an understanding of the natural history of the disease using data from previous trials. GlobalData’s report ‘Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA): Opportunity Analysis and Forecasts to 2028’ looks to elaborate and consolidate key data to gain a valuable insight in the SMA market.
