In this episode of The Lancet In Conversation With, editors Niall Boyce and Bea Gómez Pérez-Nievas are joined by three leading researchers to discuss highlights from The Lancet's special issue on neurology. The conversation covers three landmark studies: the PADOVA trial of prasinezumab in early-stage Parkinson's disease, the ORATORIO-HAND study extending ocrelizumab treatment to wheelchair-using patients with progressivemultiple sclerosis, and the HEAD study comparing tau PET tracers in Alzheimer's disease — each representing a significant step forward in the field.
The guests also reflect on the broader forces reshaping neurology: the push toward earlier, biomarker-guided intervention, cross-specialty learning between the multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's fields, and emerging platforms such as CAR T-cell therapies and blood-based biomarkers. From the transformative success of spinal muscular atrophy treatment to the prospect of an EBV vaccine preventing MS, the discussion strikes a note of cautious optimism about a specialty that is entering a new therapeutic era.
