AMT-130 was sold as the breakthrough Huntington’s families have waited generations for — a one-shot gene therapy that “changes everything.” Researchers celebrated, headlines exploded, and desperate families finally believed they might be saved.

If you’re tired of miracles being promised and ripped away, this is the show you’ve been waiting for.
