Abstract
The inaugural Clinical and Scientific Conference on Adenylosuccinate Synthetase 1 (ADSS1) myopathy was held on June 3, 2024, at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) in Rockville, Maryland, USA. ADSS1 myopathy is an ultra-rare, inherited neuromuscular disease. Features of geographical patient clusters in South Korea, Japan, India and the United States of America were characterised and discussed. Pre-clinical animal and cell-based models were discussed, providing unique insight into disease pathogenesis. The biochemical pathogenesis was discussed, and potential therapeutic targets identified. Potential clinical and pre-clinical biomarkers were discussed. An ADSS1 myopathy consortium was established and a roadmap for therapeutic development created.
