Great huntingdon disease talk about new therapy and treatments:
""""One of the most exciting applications of CRISPR is in the treatment of genetic diseases. By using CRISPR to make precise changes to DNA, scientists can potentially cure or prevent diseases caused by faulty genes. This includes diseases like sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, and Huntington's disease."

Teva Announces FDA Approval for Austedo-XR Last week, Teva Pharmaceuticals received FDA approval for Austedo XR for treatment of chorea in people with HD and people with Tardive Dyskenesia (TD). AUSTEDO® (deutetrabenazine) was initially approved by the FDA in April of 2017. This drug, called a VMAT-2 inhibitor, interferes with how dopamine messages are passed between neurons in the brain to reduce symptoms of chorea in people with HD. Austedo XR is an extended-release formulation of the same drug. This means that people prescribed Austedo will have the option of taking the drug only once per day instead of twice per day, which could make treatment adherence easier.
