AB Science : A new publication in the medical journal Muscle & Nerve validates the use of the rate of decline of ALSFR-S score (ΔFS) for the design of clinical studies and the treatment choice for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patient
AB Science SA (Euronext - FR0010557264 - AB) today announced the publication of an article in Muscle & Nerve, a peer-reviewed medical journal covering neuromuscular medicine.
- AB Science SA (Euronext - FR0010557264 - AB) today announced the publication of an article in Muscle & Nerve, a peer-reviewed medical journal covering neuromuscular medicine.
- The article, entitled ‘Categorization of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis population via the clinical determinant of post-onset ΔFS for study design and medical practice’, is accessible online from the Muscle & Nerve website ( https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/mus.28101 ) [1].
- Furthermore, because post-onset ΔFS is derived from information routinely collected as part of standard patient care and monitoring, it provides a suitable patient selection tool for treating physicians.
- The use of post-onset ΔFS patient categorization allows for innovative ALS trial design that may facilitate optimization of drug effectiveness and patient management.
