| News: FDA allows Novartis gene therapy trials to resume after nearly 2 year pause |
Novartis on Tuesday said it will begin a new study of its gene therapy Zolgensma in older patients with spinal muscular atrophy following the Food and Drug Administration's clearance of administration via a spinal infusion. The regulator had suspended testing of that dosing in October 2019 due to safety concerns.

| News: Gene therapy delivered to the brain shows promise in children with rare neurodegenerative disease |
Scientists from Ohio State University have developed a novel method for delivering gene therapy to specific regions of the brain. Now, they have evidence from a small clinical trial in children that the treatment could address a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disease. And they believe their technique could eventually be used to treat more common brain diseases, like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The Ohio State team developed the gene therapy to treat aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency, which hampers the body’s ability to make dopamine and serotonin and results in developmental delays and a range of motor and behavioral symptoms. The gene therapy uses a viral vector to carry DNA-expressing AADC to the brain.

| Conference: Cell & Gene Therapy USA - Reuters Event |
Getting a cell and gene therapy approved is a huge feat. Years of hard work, evidence generation, and record-breaking science prepare these therapies for success – but it is post-approval, which so few have yet to reach, where the complexities and uniqueness of commercialization could spell tragedy, if done incorrectly.
That's why Reuters Events are proud to bring you Cell & Gene Therapy 2021! Back for its 2nd year (on 28-29 September 2021, virtual), the 2-day online event will bring together over 2000 decision makers to marry science with strategy and get therapies to market most efficiently, post-FDA approval.
