8 Mar 2023

UK patients involved in the UniQure trial treated in Cardiff

The UniQure trial reported that its gene therapy, AMT-130, reduced disease progression by 75%. The therapy is delivered into the brain via long, delicate surgeries, which for all UK patients took place in Cardiff by Professor William Gray, director of the Advanced Neurotherapies Centre. He and the centre's co-director, Professor Anne Rosser, sat down with BBC Radio Wales to talk about the findings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBp0LfqZN6U
