Abstract
Rare pediatric neurogenetic diseases always have early onset, no specific therapy, high mortality, and pose a severe risk to the health and survival of children. Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene therapy, a type of disease-modifying therapy, provides a new option for the treatment of rare pediatric neurogenetic diseases and represents a significant advancement in the field. Currently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Association (EMA) have approved AAV-mediated gene therapy medications for treating spinal muscular atrophy, aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Numerous preclinical and clinical trial research findings from recent years indicate that AAV-mediated gene therapy has a promising future in treating genetic disorders. The quick approval process for rare diseases medications may bring hope for the treatment of children with rare neurogenetic diseases. AAV-mediated gene therapy is an emerging technology with certain risks and challenges. It is necessary to establish a standardized regulatory system and a sound long-term follow-up system to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gene therapy.
