Trump y HHS anuncian avances en autismo infantil y confirman alerta de acetaminofén a embarazadas; FDA aprueba leucovorina
Autoridades de salud del Gobierno estadounidense anuncian medidas audaces para combatir la epidemia de autismo infantil
WASHINGTON D.C.- El presidente Donald Trump y el HHS anuncian medidas contra la epidemia de autismo infantil en Estados Unidos, el riesgo por acetaminofén en embarazadas y los beneficios de la leucovorina.
Según datos oficiales, los casos han aumentado casi 400% desde 2000, afectando ahora a 1 de cada 31 niños estadounidenses.
Leucovorina: primer tratamiento reconocido por FDA
La FDA publicó un aviso en el Federal Register para actualizar la etiqueta de leucovorina, dirigido a la deficiencia de folato cerebral vinculada al autismo.
Esto establece el primer tratamiento terapéutico reconocido por FDA para niños con deficiencia de folato cerebral y síntomas autistas, cita un comunicado de los Servicios de Salud de Estados Unidos.
Hallazgos de leucovorina en el autismo infantil
El medicamento se puede usar si los niños muestran mejoras en lenguaje, habilidades sociales o adaptativas, se informó en la conferencia también presidida por Robert F. Kennedy Jr., secretario de los Servicios Humanos y de Salud (HHS).
Los programas estatales de Medicaid podrán cubrir el medicamento conocido como leucovorin en Estados Unidos para indicación de autismo infantil, en colaboración con los Centros de Servicios de Medicare y Medicaid (CMS).
Investigación y seguridad del tratamiento
Los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) iniciarán ensayos confirmatorios y estudios de seguridad sobre la leucovorina.
Se enfatiza que no es cura del autismo, pero puede mejorar déficits relacionados con el habla en un subgrupo de niños.
Se recomienda que el tratamiento sea supervisado médicamente y se combine con terapias no farmacológicas, como terapia conductual.
Trump y HHS alertan por uso acetaminofén en el embarazo y promoverán leucovorina
El HHS también informó que la FDA iniciará un cambio de etiqueta de seguridad para acetaminofén (Tylenol) y lanzará una campaña pública para informar a las familias.
Estudios previos sugieren una posible asociación entre acetaminofén prenatal y efectos adversos en el desarrollo neurológico, aunque hay literatura contradictoria.
La recomendación es usar la dosis efectiva más baja durante el menor tiempo posible, según criterio médico.
Ciencia y datos para combatir el autismo
El comisionado de la FDA, Dr. Marty Makary, destacó que algunos niños con autismo presentan deficiencia de folato cerebral, tratable con leucovorina.
Esto ofrece una nueva opción terapéutica inmediata.
El NIH también anunció los beneficiarios de la Autism Data Science Initiative (ADSI), financiando 13 proyectos por más de 50 millones de dólares.
Los proyectos integran datos biológicos, clínicos y conductuales, considerando factores ambientales, nutricionales, médicos y sociales, junto con genética.
Innovación y esperanza para familias
La iniciativa busca mejorar vidas, restaurar confianza y ofrecer esperanza a millones de familias.
Incluye participación comunitaria para alinear la investigación con las necesidades de individuos autistas, familias y clínicos.
