NCT05349721
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of PTC857 treatment in participants diagnosed with ALS.
NCT06069934
Protocol PL101-ALS501: This EAP will provide access to pridopidine for up to 200 patients with ALS who are ineligible for clinical trials.
NCT00680264
The purpose of this study is to determine the radiographic and clinical outcomes of Scoliosis surgical and non-operative treatment in patients with Cerebral Palsy.
NCT03491462
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of arimoclomol in amyotropic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
NCT02148276
This two-phased project will develop a comprehensive, audio computer assisted self-administered interview social harm questionnaire (ACASI-SHQ) that will allow researchers to more easily identify and monitor social harms experienced by substance abusers participating in HIV-related trials. The ACASI-SHQ will (1) reduce the likelihood of socially desirable responding, (2) include items with high levels of specificity to increase the likelihood of identifying social harms (construct validity), and (3) utilize a self-interview format that will increase the likelihood of its adoption by HIV researchers. The investigators will then evaluate its feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary utility and construct validity in an ongoing HIV-related trial.
NCT03505021
This study will evaluate whether prolonged oral levosimendan can preserve respiratory function more effectively than placebo, resulting in better patient functionality as measured by the ALSFRS-R scale. In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study, subjects are allocated in a 2:1 ratio to receive either levosimendan (1 -2 mg daily) or placebo for 48 weeks. The primary endpoint is slow vital capacity (SVC) at 12 weeks, with the impact on patient function assessed through 48 weeks, adjusted for patient outcome, using ALSFRS-R (combined assessment of function and survival, CAFS). Other important efficacy measures include time to respiratory events, clinical global impression (CGI), assessment of dyspnea using the Borg scale and sleep scales (Pittsburgh sleep quality index and Epworth sleepiness scale). Patient safety is monitored using conventional methods including adverse events, safety laboratory tests, vital signs and 12-lead EKG. Following screening and baseline visits, patients attend the clinic at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks, with telephone assessments conducted at weeks 18, 30 and 42. An end of study visit is performed 14-25 days after the last study treatment administration. The study will be monitored by an independent data and safety monitoring board. A long-term extension study will be available for patients completing the study.
NCT01622088
The purpose of the study is to collect long-term safety data from subjects with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) exposed to dexpramipexole.
NCT04490096
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether longitudinal neuroimaging acquired across multiple research and clinical centers is a feasible biomarker to use as an outcome measure for clinical trials in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
NCT05216510
This dose finding, multi-cohort study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intradermally-injectedTNX-2100, synthesized SARS-CoV-2 peptide antigens and assess the presence and magnitude of DTH reactions.
NCT05233748
One out of every three children with cerebral palsy (CP) falls daily, with more than half of the falls occurring while walking. To avoid falling, the nervous system must continuously monitor how the body moves and, when an imbalance is detected, activate muscles for an appropriate correction. In this project, we will use small electrical stimulation of muscles and tendons that enhances the sense of body positioning, to allow children with CP to generate more accurate balance corrections.
NCT05034289
The purpose of the research is to: develop an educational website to empower Black and African American cancer patients to make informed decisions about personalized cancer treatment and clinical trials. The sample size for the qualitative interviews was (n=48) when saturation was achieved. With a goal of (n=33) for the pilot trial, the overall target sample size for the study is (n=81).
NCT00703677
The goal of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of lithium in people with progressive supranuclear palsy or corticobasal degeneration.
NCT04998305
The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and potential efficacy of TJ-68 for improving muscle cramps in participants with ALS based on a two-site, randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind multi-period crossover (N-of-1) study design.
NCT06408727
An Intermediate Expanded Access Protocol (EAP) with CNM-Au8 for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis for NIH Grant RFA-NS-23-012
NCT03948178
This study provides an opportunity for subjects in the REFALS (3119002; NCT03505021) study to continue treatment with oral levosimendan. The study will also provide more information about long-term safety and effectiveness of oral levosimendan in patients with ALS. This is an open-label study, so that all eligible subjects that complete the double-blind REFALS study (48-weeks of treatment) will have the opportunity to receive oral levosimendan treatment. The primary objective, in addition to continuing treatment for subjects enrolled in the REFALS study, is to evaluate long-term safety of oral levosimendan in ALS patients. Another important objective is to explore long-term effectiveness of oral levosimendan in the treatment of patients with ALS. This study is open only to patients taking part in the REFALS study.
NCT02795897
The purpose of this study is to look for abnormal genes and gene expression profiles that help determine why a person develops amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and related motor neuron diseases (MND) and why their symptoms present and progress with a particular pattern.
NCT03070119
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BIIB067 (tofersen) in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and confirmed superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) mutation. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), biomarker effects, and efficacy of BIIB067 administered to participants with ALS and a confirmed SOD1 mutation.
NCT06704347
This is a Phase 1, open-label, multi-center safety study of XT-150 in adult participants with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Participants providing informed consent and meeting all study eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study and will receive a single injection of XT-150 at the Baseline visit. Follow-up visits will occur over 180 days (6 months) after the injection. 8 participants (4 participants per dose level) will be enrolled sequentially in up to 2 ascending, single dose cohorts: Cohort 1: 1.5 mg XT-150 Cohort 2: 4.5 mg XT-150
