SMA Quick Facts
- 1 in every 40 people, or nearly 10 million Americans, UNKNOWINGLY carries the gene responsible for SMA. Few have any known family history.
- SMA is a genetic recessive disease that kills more babies than ANY other inherited disease. It is the number one genetic killer of children under the age of two.
- 50% of SMA Type I babies don't live to see their 1st birthday.
- 90% of SMA Type I babies don't live to see their 2nd birthday.
- There are four types of SMA Type I, II, III, and IV with type I being the most severe.
-Because scientists know so much about SMA, it is considered a "model" disease with direct impact on research into many other diseases potentially benefiting millions of people.
- There are currently many drugs and therapies being tested as treatments and/or cures. A very promising Gene Therapy trial is hoped to be in Human Clinical Trial in 2013. THAT'S THIS YEAR!!
See KC Run will be on hand taking pictures.
ROCKIN ROB will be putting on a free concert starting at 10:15. Concert geared for kids 2-10.
