Rett Syndrome: Understanding

Rett Syndrome: Overview

Rett syndrome is a rare genetic neurological disorder that occurs almost exclusively in girls and leads to severe impairments, affecting nearly every aspect of the child's life: their ability to speak, walk, eat, and even breathe easily. The hallmark of Rett syndrome is near constant repetitive hand movements. Rett syndrome is usually recognized in children between 6 to 18 months as they begin to miss developmental milestones or lose abilities they had gained. Rett syndrome is caused by mutations on the X chromosome on a gene called MECP2. There are more than 900 different mutations found on the MECP2 gene. Most of these mutations are found in eight different “hot spots.” Rett syndrome is not a degenerative disorder with individuals living to middle age or beyond. Rett syndrome occurs worldwide in 1 of every 10,000 female births, and is even rarer in boys. Rett syndrome can present with a wide range of disability ranging from mild to severe. The course and severity of Rett syndrome is determined by the location, type and severity of the mutation and X-inactivation.

The main signs and symptoms of ret syndrome includes slowed growth loss of movement and coordination activities, loss of communication abilities and unusual hand movements, unusual eye movements, breathing problems, irritability and crying, other unusual behaviors, intellectual disabilities, seizures, sideways curvature of the spine (scoliosis), irregular heartbeat, sleep disturbances.

Diagnosing Rett syndrome involves careful observation of the child's growth and development and answering questions about medical and family history. The diagnosis is usually considered when slowing of head growth is noticed or loss of skills or developmental milestones occurs. Rett syndrome after evaluation, genetic testing (DNA analysis) may be needed to confirm the diagnosis other tests are CT scan, EEG (electroencephalogram), Genetic testing, MRI these all tests are involved in diagnosing the syndrome and helpful in the further treatment of the disease.

Although there is no cure for rett syndrome, treatments address symptoms and provide support. These may improve the potential for movement, communication and social participation. Treatments that can help children and adults with rett syndrome include, regular medical care, medications, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, nutritional support, behavioral intervention, support services. Early intervention programs and school, social and job-training services may help with integration into school, work and social activities special adaptations may make participation possible.

"Rett Syndrome - Pipeline Insight, 2024" report by the publisher outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Rett Syndrome pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Rett Syndrome treatment guidelines.

Rett Syndrome Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Rett Syndrome report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase 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.

Rett Syndrome Emerging Drugs

Blarcamesine: Anavex Life Sciences Corp

Blarcamesine is a small molecule, orally administered drug that restores cellular homeostasis by targeting SIMGAR1 and muscarinic receptors that is pivotal to restoring cellular homeostasis and promoting neuroplasticity. The drug candidate has received Fast Track designation, Rare Pediatric Disease designation and Orphan Drug designation from the FDA. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its development for the treatment of Rett syndrome.

Vatiquinone: PTC Therapeutics

Vatiquinone is a small molecule, first-in-class selective inhibitor of 15-Lipoxygenase (15-LO), an enzyme that is a key regulator of the energetic and oxidative stress pathways that are disrupted in Friedreich ataxia. Inhibition of 15-LO helps to alleviate the consequences of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress, ultimately preventing ferroptosis and aiding neuronal survival. Vatiquinone has been evaluated in a number of clinical studies and has demonstrated an impact on mortality risk and a number of neurological and neuromuscular disease symptoms. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its development for the treatment of Rett syndrome.

TSHA-102: Taysha GTx

TSHA-102 is a self-complementary intrathecally delivered AAV9 gene transfer therapy in clinical evaluation. TSHA-102 is constructed from a neuronal specific promoter, MECP2, a gene essential for neuronal and synaptic function in the brain. TSHA-102 utilizes a novel miRNA-Responsive Auto-Regulatory Element (miRARE) platform designed to regulate cellular MECP2 expression. TSHA-102 has received Orphan Drug and Rare Pediatric Disease designations from the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and has been granted Orphan Drug designation from the European Commission. Currently, the drug is in Phase I/II stage of its development for the treatment of Rett syndrome.
