P.061 The value of AVXS-101 gene-replacement therapy for Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1 (SMA1)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: SMA1, a rapidly progressing disease, results in muscle weakness, respiratory failure, hospitalization, and early death. This study highlights the value of onasemnogene abeparvovec (AVXS-101) gene-replacement therapy for SMA1. Methods: Twelve SMA1 patients received a one-time intravenous proposed therapeutic dose of AVXS-101 (CL-101; NCT02122952). Event-free survival (no death/permanent ventilation), pulmonary/nutritional interventions, swallow function, hospitalization rates, CHOP-INTEND, motor milestones, and safety were assessed (2-year follow-up). Results: By study end, all 12 patients survived event-free; 7 did not require non-invasive ventilation; 11 had stable/improved swallowing function (6 exclusively fed by mouth); 11 spoke. On average, patients experienced 1.4 (SD=0.41, range=0–4.8) respiratory hospitalizations/year. The mean proportion of time hospitalized was 4.4% (range=0–18.3%); mean unadjusted rate of hospitalization/year was 2.1 (range=0–7.6), with a mean hospital stay of 6.7 (range=3–12.1) days. CHOP-INTEND increased by 9.8 (SD=3.9) and 15.4 (SD=6.4) points at 1- and 3-months post-treatment. At long-term follow-up, 11 patients sat unassisted, 4 stood with assistance, and 2 walked. Adverse events included elevated serum aminotransferase levels, which were attenuated by prednisolone. Conclusions: AVXS-101 in CL-101 resulted in dramatic survival and motor function improvements. The reduced healthcare utilization in treated infants could decrease cost and alleviate patient, caregiver, and societal burden.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
