Uncovering the genetic basis of Parkinson's disease globally: from discoveries to the clinic Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-10-21 Shen-Yang Lim, Ai Huey Tan, Azlina Ahmad-Annuar, Njideka Ulunma Okubadejo, Katja Lohmann, Huw R Morris, Tzi Shin Toh, Yi Wen Tay, Lara M Lange, Sara Bandres-Ciga, Ignacio Mata, Jia Nee Foo, Esther Sammler, Joshua Chin Ern Ooi, Alastair J Noyce, Natascha Bahr, Wei Luo, Rajeev Ojha, Andrew B Singleton, Cornelis Blauwendraat, Christine Klein
Knowledge on the genetic basis of Parkinson's disease has grown tremendously since the discovery of the first monogenic form, caused by a mutation in α-synuclein, and with the subsequent identification of multiple other causative genes and associated loci. Genetic studies provide insights into the phenotypic heterogeneity and global distribution of Parkinson's disease. By shedding light on the underlying

Tenecteplase versus alteplase for acute stroke within 4·5 h of onset (ATTEST-2): a randomised, parallel group, open-label trial Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-10-16 Keith W Muir, Gary A Ford, Ian Ford, Joanna M Wardlaw, Alex McConnachie, Nicola Greenlaw, Grant Mair, Nikola Sprigg, Christopher I Price, Mary Joan MacLeod, Sofia Dima, Marius Venter, Liqun Zhang, Eoin O’Brien, Ranjan Sanyal, John Reid, Laszlo K Sztriha, Syed Haider, William N Whiteley, James Kennedy, Chris Douglass
BackgroundTenecteplase has potential benefits over alteplase, the standard agent for intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischaemic stroke, because it is administered as a single bolus and might have superior efficacy. The ATTEST-2 trial investigated whether tenecteplase was non-inferior or superior to alteplase within 4·5 h of onset. MethodsWe undertook a prospective, randomised, parallel-group, open-label

Comparative effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy, modafinil, and their combination for treating fatigue in multiple sclerosis (COMBO-MS): a randomised, statistician-blinded, parallel-arm trial Lancet Neurol.

BackgroundFatigue is one of the most disabling symptoms reported by people with multiple sclerosis. Although behavioural and pharmacological interventions might be partly beneficial, their combined effects have not been evaluated for multiple sclerosis fatigue, or examined with sufficient consideration of characteristics that might affect treatment response.

Safety, tolerability, and efficacy of fasudil in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ROCK-ALS): a phase 2, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial Lancet Neurol.

BackgroundFasudil is a small molecule inhibitor of Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) and is approved for the treatment of subarachnoid haemorrhage. In preclinical studies, fasudil has been shown to attenuate neurodegeneration, modulate neuroinflammation, and foster axonal regeneration. We aimed to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of fasudil in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

CNS disease associated with enhanced type I interferon signalling Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-10-16 Yanick J Crow
The ability to mount an interferon-mediated innate immune response is essential in protection against neurotropic viruses, but antiviral type I interferons also have neurotoxic potential. The production of type I interferons can be triggered by self-derived nucleic acids, and the brain can be susceptible to inappropriate upregulation of type I interferon signalling. Homoeostatic dysregulation of type

Safety and efficacy of memantine and trazodone versus placebo for motor neuron disease (MND SMART): stage two interim analysis from the first cycle of a phase 3, multiarm, multistage, randomised, adaptive platform trial Lancet Neurol.

Motor neuron disease represents a group of progressive and incurable diseases that are characterised by selective loss of motor neurons, resulting in an urgent need for rapid identification of effective disease-modifying therapies. The MND SMART trial aims to test the safety and efficacy of promising interventions efficiently and definitively against a single contemporaneous placebo control group.

Evobrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has shown preliminary efficacy in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis in a phase 2 trial. Here, we aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of evobrutinib with the active comparator teriflunomide in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

Differential diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis: considerations in people from minority ethnic and racial backgrounds in North America, northern Europe, and Australasia Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-09-18 Lilyana Amezcua, Dalia Rotstein, Afsaneh Shirani, Olga Ciccarelli, Daniel Ontaneda, Melinda Magyari, Victor Rivera, Dorlan Kimbrough, Ruth Dobson, Bruce Taylor, Mitzi Williams, Ruth Ann Marrie, Brenda Banwell, Bernhard Hemmer, Scott D Newsome, Jeffrey A Cohen, Andrew J Solomon, Walter Royal
The differential diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis has been developed using data from North America, northern Europe, and Australasia, with a focus on White populations. People from minority ethnic and racial backgrounds in regions where prevalence of multiple sclerosis is high are more often negatively affected by social determinants of health, compared with White people in these regions.

Brain volume change following anti-amyloid β immunotherapy for Alzheimer's disease: amyloid-removal-related pseudo-atrophy Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-09-18 Christopher R S Belder, Delphine Boche, James A R Nicoll, Zane Jaunmuktane, Henrik Zetterberg, Jonathan M Schott, Frederik Barkhof, Nick C Fox
Progressive cerebral volume loss on MRI is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease and has been widely used as an outcome measure in clinical trials, with the prediction that disease-modifying treatments would slow loss. However, in trials of anti-amyloid immunotherapy, the participants who received treatment had excess volume loss. Explanations for this observation range from reduction of amyloid β plaque

Mexiletine versus lamotrigine in non-dystrophic myotonias: a randomised, double-blind, head-to-head, crossover, non-inferiority, phase 3 trial Lancet Neurol.

BackgroundNon-dystrophic myotonias are skeletal muscle channelopathies caused by ion channel dysfunction. Symptom onset is frequently in the first decade of life, causing disability in a young cohort. Although there is no cure, symptomatic treatments exist. Previous trials provide evidence of the efficacy of mexiletine. More recently, lamotrigine has been shown to be effective. Both treatments have

Differential diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis: global health considerations Lancet Neurol.

The differential diagnosis of multiple sclerosis can present specific challenges in patients from Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, eastern Europe, southeast Asia, and the Western Pacific. In these areas, environmental factors, genetic background, and access to medical care can differ substantially from those in North America and western Europe, where multiple sclerosis is most common.

Safety, tolerability, and efficacy of subcutaneous efgartigimod in patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (ADHERE): a multicentre, randomised-withdrawal, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial Lancet Neurol.

BackgroundChronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an autoimmune disease of the peripheral nervous system that can lead to severe disability from muscle weakness and sensory disturbances. Around a third of patients do not respond to currently available treatments, and many patients with a partial response have residual neurological impairment, highlighting the need for effective

Frailty for neurologists: perspectives on how frailty influences care planning Lancet Neurol. (IF 46.5) Pub Date : 2024-09-11 Marco Canevelli PhD, Caitlin Jackson-Tarlton MD, Kenneth Rockwood MD
The concept of frailty, now being adopted in most medical disciplines, is attracting growing interest in neurology. Every day, most neurologists care for patients with varying degrees of frailty, from very mild to very severe. Frailty exacerbates patients' health needs, complicates clinical decision making, and negatively affects their health outcomes. Increasing evidence suggests that frailty affects

Endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke with established large infarct (TENSION): 12-month outcomes of a multicentre, open-label, randomised trial Lancet Neurol.

Long-term data showing the benefits of endovascular thrombectomy for stroke with large infarct are scarce. The TENSION trial showed the safety and efficacy of endovascular thrombectomy in patients with ischaemic stroke and large infarct at 90 days. We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy at 12 months of endovascular thrombectomy in patients who were enrolled in the TENSION trial. TENSION was
