In total, 289 patients received nusinersen (of whom 21% switched to risdiplam and 16% to OA), and 86 patients received risdiplam (of whom 5% switched to OA). The top reported reasons for treatment changes were as follows: nusinersen to risdiplam: related to spine complexity (28\/52), other difficulties related to administration (23\/52); nusinersen to OA: parent preference (19\/36), bridging to OA (14\/36); risdiplam to OA: parent preference (2\/2).

No patients demonstrated deterioration beyond the expected disease trajectory prior to switching.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The availability of treatments in the United Kingdom has fundamentally influenced treatment choices, but deterioration in a treatment was not identified as a factor in switching treatments.
