Seven investigational cerebral palsy therapies—from baby-tooth stem cells to cannabinoids and botulinum toxin—show mixed early results, highlighting key clinical trial milestones ahead.

Late-breaking findings from MDS 2026 suggest a gluten-free diet may affect cognitive and quality-of-life measures in Parkinson disease, although no significant changes in motor function were observed.

Exploratory extracellular vesicle biomarkers suggested KP405, a brain-penetrant GLP-1/GIP agonist, engaged insulin signaling and neuroinflammation pathways in a small phase 1 study.

Early phase 1 findings showed that the PROTAC LRRK2 degrader ARV-102 was associated with improvements in saccadic hypometria and changes in CSF markers of endolysosomal function, neuroinflammation, synaptic integrity, and axonal guidance in participants with Parkinson disease.

Full results from the phase 2b LUMA showed that investigational BIIB122/DNL151 did not slow confirmed clinical worsening in early-stage Parkinson's disease compared with placebo.
