p.W1204X Mutation

Question
Hello,
I wanted to know if the mutation carried by my daughter, the p.W1204X could possibly benefit from the drug that would result from project ataluren?
Answer
Hello,

P.W1204X mutation is a mutation (type I) that causes a premature stop signal (stop codon) and ataluren is known to have an effect on patients with this type of mutation.
Your daughter could therefore possibly benefit from ataluren.
