The Time is NOW! Join the Fight to Bring Hope to HD Families: Urge the FDA to Uphold Accelerated Approval!

Huntington's Disease Society of America, Help 4 HD International, HD Reach, Huntington's Disease Foundation and HDYO have joined forces on a petition directly to the FDA.

Key Asks of the FDA:

Honor Your Previous Guidance: Fully uphold the previously agreed-upon accelerated approval pathway for AMT-130, including the use of external control data from natural history studies.

Recognize the Urgency: Acknowledge the dire, unmet medical need in the HD community and act with the expediency that Breakthrough Therapy and RMAT designations demand.

Expedite Review: Make the review and approval of AMT-130, and any other future HD therapies, a top priority to get this potentially life-altering therapy to patients without further delay.

Sign the Petition Today! Don’t forget to confirm your email to make it count.
