NCT07644013
Multiple system atrophy is a rare, rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by variable combinations of parkinsonism, cerebellar ataxia, and autonomic dysfunction. Existing natural history studies from North America, Europe, and Japan suggest that clinical phenotypes and disease progression may differ across populations. However, comprehensive multicenter prospective data from Chinese patients with multiple system atrophy remain limited. This prospective multicenter registry study aims to describe the clinical characteristics, longitudinal progression, and outcomes of Chinese patients with multiple system atrophy, to identify factors associated with disease progression and prognosis, and to establish a longitudinal cohort for future biomarker validation and clinical trial design.
NCT05794139
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NMD670 in the treatment of ambulatory adults with spinal muscular atrophy type 3
NCT07596277
Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1 (SMA )Type 1 is a severe, early-onset neuromuscular condition that typically leads to profound weakness and impaired bulbar function-affecting swallowing, feeding, speech, and airway protection. Historically, bulbar decline contributed significantly to early morbidity and mortality. The advent of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) such as nusinersen, zolgensma and risdiplam (also known as Spinraza, Zolgensma, and Evrysdi) sinersinhas altered the clinical course of SMA Type 1, with emerging evidence of motor improvement and increased survival. However, the impact of these therapies on bulbar function remains poorly understood, and standardised tools for its assessment are lacking. Qualitative research which uses interviews with parents and carers offers an opportunity to capture nuanced caregiver perspectives, identify meaningful functional outcomes, and explore daily lived experiences in a way quantitative tools currently cannot. This study will investigate the lived experiences of families managing feeding and communication in children with SMA Type 1. The research will also aim to 1 Identify emotional, social issues experienced by families and practical support needs related to feeding and communication. 2\. Provide insights that can inform healthcare interventions and support
NCT06161584
A Prospective, Multicenter, Open-Label, Observational Phase 4 Study to Evaluate Real-World Safety, Tolerability, and Treatment Patterns of Pegcetacoplan (Syfovre) in Patients with Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration
NCT07604883
This prospective observational study aims to identify and preliminarily validate molecular biomarkers, including microRNAs and metabolites, for the early differentiation of Parkinson's disease (PD) from atypical parkinsonian syndromes (APS). The study will enroll up to 100 patients with PD, 50 patients with suspected APS, and 50 healthy controls. Participants will undergo clinical assessments and provide blood, urine, and stool samples at baseline and after 12-18 months of follow-up. Molecular analyses, including microRNA profiling, metabolomics, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and microbiome analysis, will be performed to identify disease-specific diagnostic signatures. The primary objective is to detect differences in molecular profiles among patients with PD, patients with APS, and healthy controls. Secondary objectives include evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of biomarker panels and assessing longitudinal changes in these biomarkers over time. Although participants will not receive direct therapeutic benefits, the study may contribute to the development of non-invasive tools for the early diagnosis and improved differentiation of parkinsonian disorders.

NCT01577992
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a sporadic neurodegenerative disorder. MSA is dominated by autonomic/urogenital failure which may be associated with either Parkinsonism (MSA-P subtype) or with cerebellar ataxia (MSA-C subtype). The prognostic of this disease is bad because it ended with the patient's death few years later. No neuroprotective treatment has shown a real efficacy. 50% of patients suffering of MSA frequently experienced painful sensation. The origin of this pain is unknown. In Parkinson disease (PD) ; arguments suggest the implication of dopamine neuromediator pathway in integration and modulation of pain. Several studies suggest the existence of various influences with dopamine implication in the appearance of painful sensation and that would be inhibitory. That's why observed painful symptoms in MSA and PD could be due to a decrease of pain appearance threshold, secondary to a lost of control of sensitizes centres, to Parkinson control. It is interesting to determine if MSA as PD is responsible for a decrease of pain threshold and to characterise the levodopa effect on the patient's pain threshold. Better physiopathology knowledge of pain in MSA is necessary to improve the therapeutic care. Because the efficacy of others treatments is low, it's important to improve the research for a better comfort of patients with a better understanding, analysing and treating of the pain.
NCT02429557
Compression garments have been shown to be effective in the treatment of orthostatic hypotension in autonomic failure patients. The purpose of this study is to determine the hemodynamic mechanisms by which abdominal compression (up to 40 mm Hg) improve the standing blood pressure and orthostatic tolerance in these patients, and to compare them with those of the standard of care midodrine. The investigators will test the hypothesis that abdominal compression will blunt the exaggerated fall in stroke volume and the increase in abdominal vascular volume during head up tilt.
NCT01866371
Studying the morphology and function of the normal and diseased retina in vivo is needed for advancing the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of retinal disease. This protocol uses an adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) to image the normal and diseased retina with individual cellular resolution non-invasively. The primary objective of this study is to obtain and analyze high-resolution images of the retina, in particular by imaging the cone photoreceptor mosaic, the retinal vasculature and other retinal layers. The study design will involve case-control studies, where cases are followed over time. Subjects age 7 and older may be invited to participate. The main research procedure involves retinal imaging with the AOSLO. The primary endpoint is the observation of differences in retinal images between subjects with and without retinal diseases. These changes will be quantified by examining the cell density, size, spacing and regularity of the cone photoreceptor mosaic, as well as examining the differences between other retinal layers.
NCT04620382
