Overview
uniQure's AMT-130 gene therapy for Huntington's disease has encountered a significant regulatory hurdle as the FDA has rejected its data package. This decision has led to a dramatic 40% drop in the company's shares. The FDA now requires uniQure to conduct a new sham surgery-controlled trial before any approval can be considered, which could further delay access to this potential treatment for patients suffering from Huntington's disease.
