Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Understanding

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Overview

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as “Lou Gehrig disease,” is a neurodegenerative disease of the motor neurons. No single etiology has been proven; rather, multiple pathways (both heritable and sporadic) have been shown to result in unmistakably similar disease entities. ALS necessarily affects both upper and lower motor neurons with variable patterns of onset, most commonly beginning with signs of lower motor neuron degeneration within proximal limbs. As it is a progressive disease, it will eventually lead to paralysis and, inevitably, death.

Although many potential mechanisms have been proposed, a precise, single etiology of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is yet unproven. These mechanisms include altered RNA processing leading to prion-like self-aggregation, superoxide dismutase type 1 SOD1 mutations leading to free radical toxicity, cascading inflammatory responses, and excessive concentrations of glutamate, among others. The rarer entity of familial ALS has numerous genetic mechanisms, most frequently repeat expansion of the C9ORF72 gene and various mutations of the SOD1 gene. Mutated SOD1 protein misfold and forms aggregates, leading to cellular injury and eventually apoptosis. Both genetic aberrations are inherited in a mainly autosomal dominant pattern. Ultimately, rather than a single unifying cause, ALS is an etiologically diverse clinical entity, which is the result of a multitude of separate potential preceding aberrations.

Respiratory management is crucial, as ALS patients often develop chronic respiratory failure due to weakening of the diaphragmatic and intercostal muscles. Noninvasive ventilation is recommended when the patient experiences orthopnea, nocturnal hypoxia, or a forced vital capacity (FVC) below 50%. Invasive ventilation may be considered if noninvasive ventilation is not tolerated or if the patient remains hypoxic or hypercarbic. Swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) are also common in ALS patients and should be managed initially with diet modifications. Enteral nutrition via percutaneous gastrostomy (G-tube) should be considered if the patient's oral intake is impaired, as weight loss is associated with a worse prognosis.

There are numerous complications associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, including respiratory decline with eventual need for ventilatory support, dysphagia, dysarthria, malnutrition, spasms, spasticity, and fatigue, functional decline due to muscular weakness, sialorrhea, thick mucus secretions and pseudobulbar affect. In addition, some complications may arise due to the less-common medications meant to manage symptoms of the disease itself. These side effects include gastrointestinal upset and arrhythmias in mexiletine, transaminitis and asthenia in Riluzole, and gait disturbance and headache in edaravone.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II/III, II, I, preclinical and discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Emerging Drugs

• MN-166: MediciNova

MN-166 is a first-in-class, orally bioavailable, small molecule glial attenuator that suppresses pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, TNF-a, and IL-6, and may upregulate the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. It has additionally been shown to be a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) functional antagonist that may contribute to its attenuation of neuroinflammation. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase II/III clinical trial for the treatment of ALS.

• RNS60: Revalesio

RNS60 is being developed to provide disease modifying and potentially restorative treatments for neurological diseases. The drug activates intracellular signaling pathways to increase mitochondrial biogenesis and function and reduce inflammation. RNS60 safely protects neurons and oligodendrocytes and modulates the activity of immune cells to restore homeostasis. RNS60 has been granted Orphan Drug and Fast Track designations for ALS from the US Food and Drug Administration. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of ALS.

• VM202: Helixmith

VM202 is an innovative gene therapy drug that provides fundamental treatment through tissue regeneration. The drug is injected along the peripheral nerves and their branches, the internal production of HGF may protect nerves and promote the growth of neurons while also ameliorating atrophic conditions. The US FDA granted orphan drug and fast track designation to VM202. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of ALS.

• QRL-201: QurAlis Corporation

QRL-201 is a first-in-class therapeutic product candidate aiming to restore STMN2 expression in ALS patients. STMN2 is a well-validated protein important for neural repair and axonal stability, the expression of which is significantly decreased in nearly all ALS patients. QRL-201 rescues STMN2 loss of function in QurAlis ALS patient-derived motor neuron disease models in the presence of TDP-43 pathology. The drug is currently being evaluated under Phase I clinical trial for the treatment of ALS.
