Participating in a clinical trial may be an option for some families caring for a loved one with GM2 gangliosidosis (Tay-Sachs disease or Sandhoff disease)—including yours.
 
That’s why we wanted to share information with you about a study being conducted to learn if an investigational therapy called TSHA-101 can help children with Tay-Sachs disease or Sandhoff disease. This will be the first time that TSHA-101 is studied in humans.
