NCT07215416
This project aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of precision genetic therapy for patients with Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T), a rare neurodegenerative disease caused by mutations in the ATM gene. The investigators will conduct a clinical trial to study the safety and efficacy of intrathecal administration of atipeksen, a targeted genetic therapy that restores ATM gene function in A-T individuals bearing the recurrent ATM c.7865C\>T variant. The aim of this study is to delay or forestall progression of neurologic symptoms in A-T and improving quality of life. Success will provide an empirical foundation for advancing additional precision genetic therapies for A-T and other neurodegenerative conditions.
NCT05692596
The long-term goal of our PIC is to develop effective strategies that can be applied clinically at the point-of-care to prevent, intercept, or detect PDAC at an early stage, thereby reducing PDAC burden and saving lives.
NCT03759678
This is a multinational, multicenter, open-label, rater-blinded prospective Phase II study which will assess the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) for the treatment of Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T). There are two phases to this study: the Parent Study, and the Extension Phase. The Parent Study evaluates the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) for the symptomatic treatment of A-T. The Extension Phase evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of IB1001 for the neuroprotective, disease-modifying treatment of A-T.
NCT06664853
This is an international, multi-center, prospective, open-label, non-comparative study to provide EryDex treatment to ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) patients who complete the IEDAT-04-2022 trial on the neurological effects of EryDex on subjects with ataxia telangiectasia (NEAT trial).
NCT03563053
Primary Objective To monitor and evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of EDS-EP in AT patients. Secondary Objective To evaluate the long-term effect of EDS-EP on health-related Quality of Life (QoL; EQ-5D-5L scale). Exploratory Objective: To evaluate the long-term effect of EDS-EP in treating central nervous system (CNS) symptoms, as measured by the "Modified" International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (mICARS), and Clinical Global Impression of severity and change (CGI-S/C).
NCT05252819
Ataxia Telangiectasia (A-T) is an inherited disorder characterised by cerebellar neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency and respiratory disease. People with A-T have abnormal DNA repair and consequently have an increased risk of cancer. Despite this, current guidelines for management of children and young people with A-T do not include cancer surveillance. Improvements in MRI technology have allowed whole-body MRI (WB-MRI) scanning with relatively short acquisition times. Currently, WB-MRI protocols are used for diagnosing and monitoring some primary and secondary cancers, including cancer surveillance in people with the Li-Fraumeni syndrome, which is another genetic cancer predisposition syndrome. Therefore, the research team believe that whole-body MRI provides a safe method for cancer surveillance in children and young people with A-T. However, the investigators do not know whether cancer surveillance in children and young people with A-T using whole-body MRI is feasible and desirable. The research team proposes a feasibility study of MRI-based cancer surveillance with qualitative evaluation of participant experience with the primary aim to establish: * feasibility of whole-body MRI for cancer surveillance in children and young people with A-T * views of, and psychological impact on, participants and families / carers participating in whole-body MRI for cancer surveillance. * feasibility of conducting a formal screening trial in terms of statistical design, sample size, screening interval, comparator arms and international collaboration Completion of this study will provide us with evidence of technical feasibility, very strong evidence of child / family views, a viable formal screening trial design and an engaged international research community, allowing us to proceed to a formal trial establishing the efficacy of a cancer surveillance programme for children and young people with A-T.
NCT05692622
Ataxia telangiectasia is a rare, genetic and progressive condition with no known cure. Therapies present a mainstream management option and have the potential to offer optimisation of fitness and general health. This pilot RCT aims to explore the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of a co-produced home-based complex exercise intervention for children with ataxia telangiectasia. The study was designed through broad consultation with a collaborative of children and young people with A-T including family members, therapists, clinicians and researchers, called the A-Team collaborative (https://osf.io/edzn3/)
NCT04991701
This is a retrospective observational study of natural-history of ataxia-telangiectasia. Understanding the natural history and its variability is not only vital to planning effective patient-centred services, and counselling patients and their families, but will also inform the design of future clinical research, particularly clinical trials.
NCT04037189
Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a multisystem disease with diverse manifestations, including progressive neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, respiratory disease, and genomic instability. One of the most important features of A-T is the increased predisposition to cancer, especially to lymphoid malignancies. Patients with A-T are generally excluded from collaborative clinical trials, their treatment outcomes and toxicity profiles have rarely been reported, and little is currently known concerning the treatment intensity required to provide a reasonable balance between efficacy and toxicity. The aims of this study are to build a large international de-identified database of children with A-T treated for leukemia and lymphoma, to investigate epidemiology and outcome of treatment, toxicity profiles and risk factors which impact outcome, in order to eventually enable the generation of data-based treatment recommendations for this population.
NCT02285348
Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a rare devastating human recessive disorder characterized by progressive cerebellar ataxia, immunodeficiency, chromosomal instability, and cancer susceptibility. The underlying mechanism and process of neurodegeneration leading to loss of cerebellar neurons and neurological function is largely unknown. Laboratory diagnostic approaches to neurodegeneration in A-T are hampered by sampling issues. It is dangerous, impractical, and not ethically to directly sample brain tissue by surgical biopsy. In contrast cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a fluid that is in direct contact with brain tissue, is relatively easy to sample in a safe procedure (lumbar puncture). The aim of the proposal is to investigate oxidative stress, low grade inflammation and tissue break down in the brain of A-T patients by analyzing CSF. In addition the alterations in protein expression related to A-T will be quantified by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS)-based proteomic analysis of CSF from healthy individuals and A-T patients to determine candidate proteins (new biomarkers) which relative expression levels could be used as surrogate marker of disease progression.
