NCT00756821
The goal of this pilot study is to identify a marker or panel of markers in the blood or urine from a wide range of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) patients that segregates with measures of clinical severity. From this identification of candidate biomarkers, it is hoped that further investigations, both longitudinal natural history and clinical efficacy studies, will verify a biomarker with the sensitivity and specificity that will allow its eventual use as a validated pharmacodynamic marker or surrogate endpoint. In addition, this effort may elucidate biological pathways that may be potential therapeutic targets.
NCT00211315
Congenital Telangiectasia or Coat's disease is an uncommon disorder that involves the growth of blood vessels of the macula. These blood vessels msy extend beneth the retina to produce an area of sub-retinal neovascularization(growth of abnormal blood vessels under the retina which "leak" fluid, causing reduction in vision). Limited forms of treatment are available in managing the neovascularization and its consequences. Anecortave Acetate injection will be considered as an attempt to control the growth of the abnormal blood vessels.
