Existing cancer medication offers potential to treat Huntington's disease
December 6, 2017
A drug already used to treat certain forms of cancer may also be an effective therapy for Huntington's disease, according to a new study in the latest issue of Science Translational Medicine. The same study also increases our understanding of how this drug, and other medications like it, may offer hope for other neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Parkinson's disease.

And thanks to regulations we might see it approved by 2030.
 
It may be nice if you can survive the medication for treating cancer. My sister was on it..just recently, and may still be, and it alone has about killed her. The side effects.
 
It isn't something to joke about. She has breast cancer, and then on top of it the medication that she is supposed to take the rest of her life is making her very very sick.
