MS Compass: Guiding Clinical Care, a podcast hosted by neuroimmunologist Lindsay Ross, MD, brings you an exclusive interview with Rachel Galioto, PhD. [LISTEN TIME: 33 minutes]
The Accelerating Access to Critical Therapies for ALS Reauthorization Act of 2026 extends federal support for ALS research and expanded access to investigational therapies, with additional provisions addressing clinical trial oversight and regulatory planning.
The FDA accepted fenebrutinib's new drug application under priority review for relapsing and primary progressive MS, based on 3 phase 3 trials comparing the BTK inhibitor with teriflunomide and ocrelizumab.
A. Blake Buletko, MD, and Galina Gheihman, MD, discuss their career paths in neurology, the role of mentorship and resilience, and strategies for navigating professional growth as early-career clinician-educators.
The positive opinion for intravenous ocrelizumab was supported by phase 3 OPERETTA 2 findings demonstrating noninferior relapse control and superior suppression of MRI-detected brain lesions compared with fingolimod in pediatric patients with relapsing MS.
An ACT–based group intervention did not significantly improve resilience at 3 months in patients with MS but was associated with improvements in anxiety, well-being, psychological flexibility, and health-related quality of life.
