Hemophilia, sickle cell disease (SCD), and beta thalassemia (β thal) are inherited blood disorders likely to see multiple significant novel therapies approved in the near future, including the possibility for partial or complete cures with gene therapies.

AMCP brought together experts to learn about food allergies caused by the body reacting strongly to certain foods. Food allergies can be difficult to handle and costly for both people and the health care system. New medicines could help prevent allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, caused by accidental exposure to foods. It is important for health care leaders to make sure people with food allergies see the right doctors, get the right medicine at the right time, and help prevent allergic reactions and related health care costs.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rare, rapidly progressive, and fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. The etiology of ALS is unknown, however it is thought to be due to a combination of genetic predisposition, environmental exposures, and agingrelated dysfunction. The clinical presentation of ALS varies depending on which motor neurons are affected. ALS commonly presents with localized weakness that progresses to muscle paralysis, respiratory failure, and death.
