Tucker Olson is in a race against the clock for pre-symptomatic treatment prior to familial ALS onset.
In the case of the SOD1 mutation present within Tucker's family, the average age of disease onset is 49.7 years old, with a variance of 12.3 years. There are cases of ALS developing in the teens or 20s, as well as cases of ALS developing in the 60s or later. Hwoever, on average, the age of onset for familial ALS is significantly younger than sporadic ALS.
