    Rozanolixizumab for Myasthenia Gravis: An Alternative to Corticosteroids

    Guest: Gil I. Wolfe MD, FAAN Rozanolixizumab is a fast-acting myasthenia gravis treatment that reduces IgG levels by blocking the neonatal Fc receptor. Dr. Gil Wolfe explains how it compares to other treatment options like corticosteroids, taking side effects and quality of life into consideration. Dr. Wolf is a SUNY Distinguished Professor of Neurology at the University of Buffalo Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.

    FcRn Inhibitors: A Potential New Targeted Therapy Option

    Guest: Nicholas J. Silvestri, MD, FAAN FcRn inhibitors provide a targeted approach to generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) treatment by reducing pathogenic antibodies. These therapies offer fewer side effects compared to traditional treatments like corticosteroids, improving both disease control and quality of life. Dr. Nick Silvestri, a Professor of Neurology at the University of Buffalo Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, explains this treatment’s potential.

    The Evolving gMG Treatment Landscape

    Guest: Henry Kaminski, MD Generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) is a complex autoimmune disease with a wide range of symptoms, from ocular issues to severe muscle weakness. As our understanding of the pathophysiology behind gMG evolves, so does our ability to improve patient management. Join Dr. Henry Kaminski as he examines emerging advancements in gMG treatment, including FcRN inhibitors and immune-targeting therapies. Dr. Kaminski is the Meta A. Neumann Professor of Neurology at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences.

    Beyond Plaques: Current Concepts in Alzheimer’s Pathophysiology

    Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO Guest: Lori Guyton, MD Guest: Douglas Scharre, MD As our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease continues to evolve, it’s critical to understand the clinical and pathologic changes underpinning Alzheimer’s disease as it may be able to help guide early diagnosis and clinically meaningful management decisions.1 That’s why Drs. Douglas Scharre and Lori Guyton speak with Dr. Jennifer Caudle about Alzheimer’s disease pathophysiology and how it translates to clinical practice. Dr. Scharre is a Professor of Clinical Neurology and Psychiatry as well as the Director for the Division of Cognitive Neurology at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, and Dr. Guyton is a practicing neurologist with Neurology of Southern Illinois in Herrin.

    The Time Is Now: Early Diagnosis and Intervention in Alzheimer’s Disease

    Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO Guest: Lori Guyton, MD Guest: Douglas Scharre, MD Our understanding of the mechanisms underlying Alzheimer’s disease is growing, and these advances can help inform diagnosis and management strategies. In fact, as our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease evolves, our strategies to diagnose and manage the disease are changing to focus on early diagnosis and intervention.1 Joining Dr. Jennifer Caudle to discuss our current understanding of disease progression as well as the impact and benefit of diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease early are Drs. Douglas Scharre and Lori Guyton. Dr. Scharre is the Director of the Division of Cognitive Neurology at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, and Dr. Guyton is a practicing neurologist with Neurology of Southern Illinois in Herrin.

    Reducing the ALS Diagnostic Delay: The Impacts of a Rapid Access Clinic

    Guest: Kelly Gwathmey, MD ALS can take up to a year to diagnose, but researchers are hard at work trying to find ways to minimize diagnostic delays and errors. One such solution is the Rapid Access ALS Clinic, where patients were diagnosed an average of two months sooner. Here to talk about this work is Dr. Kelly Gwathmey, Professor of Neurology at the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine who presented a session on this topic at the 2024 American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine Annual Meeting.

    Assessing TD’s Impact Using Clinician-Reported Measures: A Poster from Psych Congress Elevate

    Host: Ashley Baker, MSN, PMHNP Guest: Stacy Finkbeiner, PhD The IMPACT-TD Registry is an ongoing, real-world observational study that aims to better understand the multidimensional impacts of tardive dyskinesia (TD) on patients’ lives. To achieve this goal, the IMPACT-TD Scale was developed and used by clinicians involved with the study, and now the results from the interim analysis are available. Joining psychiatric nurse practitioner Ashley Baker to share the key findings on TD’s impact from the clinician perspective is Dr. Stacy Finkbeiner, U.S. Medical Director at Teva Pharmaceuticals.
