The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) shall award grants to eligible entities to facilitate patients' access to investigational drugs that diagnose or treat ALS. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shall award grants to public and private entities to cover the costs of research and development of drugs that diagnose or treat ALS and other severely debilitating neurodegenerative diseases.

Specifically, a regulatory body may investigate and take disciplinary actions against a professional who provides services pursuant to this bill to a patient in that body's jurisdiction. -The Promising Pathway Act (S. 1644) would establish a new time-limited "provisional approval" path at the FDA for drug sponsors to market drugs that show promise while additional testing takes place and before full FDA approval is achieved. -The Accelerating Access to Critical Therapies (ACT) for ALS Act (H.R. 3537/ S. 1813) would create 1) a new framework for delivering experimental therapies to people with rare neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS; 2) create a new research grant program at the FDA to such diseases, and; 3) create a new Public-Private Partnership at the Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate federal efforts on developing and approving treatments for such diseases.
