This is a placebo controlled clinical trial to assess the utility of light therapy as a sufficient treatment for excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome
NCT07348601
This is a proof-of-concept, open-label, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of CSTI-500 in participants with genetically confirmed Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) who are 13 to 50 years of age. Participants will receive increasing doses of CSTI-500, and blood levels will be measured to guide individualized dosing.
NCT07197034
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ARD-101 works to treat hyperphagia-related behavior in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) when used in a long term setting. It will also teach us about the safety of ARD-101. The main questions it aims to answer are: What medical problems do participants have when taking ARD-101 in a long term setting Does ARD-101 improve the total score of the HQCT-9 (hyperphagia questionnaire for clinical trials, 9 questions)? Eligible participants will: Have completed treatment on the AVK-101-301 study through Week 12/End of Treatment Take ARD-101 every day for up to 12 months. Visit the clinic at Months 1, 3, 6 and 12 during dosing and then have tele-visits at Week 2, Months 3 and 9, then 4 weeks after stopping the ARD-101. Patients/Caregivers will keep a daily diary.
NCT06573723
The goal of this observational study is to create a single macro registry system with data collection on common clinical features, grouping the different rare diseases (RD). Moreover, the specific goals are to generate an alert system for possible cases of RD with data from the electronic medical record, to describe the occurrence of RD in the evaluated population, to characterize the population, to describe patterns of diagnosis and treatment of RD present at the time, and to explore patient-reported outcomes.
NCT02804373
The investigator thinks that the oxytocin (OT) can improve durably and significantly the behavior disorders and thus the socialization but also the satisfaction and could thus be an interesting therapeutic alternative for the patients presenting a Prader-Willi Syndrome (SPW). Although today several studies demonstrated the effects of the OT in various domains of the behavior, the investigator do not know either its specificity of action about the cerebral level, or its duration of action, or the optimal modalities of administration and in particular at patients SPW.
NCT07266324
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effects of a new drug called BMB-101 in people with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). This study is designed as a multi-centre, double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled 2-part study with a blinded main phase followed up an open label extension phase.
NCT06420297
To evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of carbetocin nasal spray (3.2 mg TID) in subjects with PWS
NCT05249998
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare and complex genetic disease characterized by hypothalamic-pituitary axis dysfunction combining eating disorders associated with hyperphagia and satiety deficiency, mild intellectual deficit and behavioral disorders. This disease requires continuous management through specific therapeutic education to prevent metabolic and cardiorespiratory complications related to obesity. Physical activity must therefore be regular, adapted to the disability, taking into account cognitive deficits and behavioral disorders. The Unit of Care and Rehabilitation, of the Hôpital Marin d'Hendaye, receives patients with PWS or other obesity from rare causes, at a rate of 1 to 2 annual stays of 1 to 2 months, which allow the regulation of somatic disorders and the initiation of weight loss. However, the difficulty is to keep a stable weight curve between stays. Only 20% of patients over the last 2 years managed to stabilize or decrease their BMI during the 6 months following their hospitalization. The proposed study aims to evaluate an innovative and individualized care program combining Physical activity, Nutrition and therapeutic education for adults with PWS who will be admitted to the hospital for 5 weeks. We hypothesize that this program will allow to stabilize or decrease the BMI of patients at 6 months after hospitalization by inducing a behavioral change in terms of physical activity and eating behavior. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial on 128 patients who will participate in this program, or will benefit from standard care.

NCT02829684
Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare syndrome with a prevalence of 15 to 20 000 at birth. PWS represents a large fraction of mental retardation syndromes due to a genetic cause and the most frequent cause of genetic obesity. The majority of the patients are seen by paediatricians. This syndrome is responsible for severe physical, psychological and social impairments. The diversity and the severity of the manifestations of this disease explain the requirement of multidisciplinary care which deserve specific evaluation. Today the follow-up and management of a great proportion of these patients are greatly insufficient if not absent. Teams strongly lack information on the natural history of this severe disease and on the factors involved in its evolution and the outcome of these patients throughout life. The present project is to implement a register in the whole country for children and adult patients
NCT04463316
Introduction Rare complex syndromes Patients with complex genetic syndromes, by definition, have combined medical problems affecting multiple organ systems, and intellectual disability is often part of the syndrome. During childhood, patients with rare genetic syndromes receive multidisciplinary and specialized medical care; they usually receive medical care from 3-4 medical specialists. Increased life expectancy Although many genetic syndromes used to cause premature death, improvement of medical care has improved life expectancy. More and more patients are now reaching adult age, and the complexity of the syndrome persists into adulthood. However, until recently, multidisciplinary care was not available for adults with rare genetic syndromes. Ideally, active and well-coordinated health management is provided to prevent, detect, and treat comorbidities that are part of the syndrome. However, after transition from pediatric to adult medical care, patients and their parents often report fragmented poor quality care instead of adequate and integrated health management. Therefore, pediatricians express the urgent need for adequate, multidisciplinary adult follow up of their pediatric patients with rare genetic syndromes. Medical guidelines for adults not exist and the literature on health problems in these adults is scarce. Although there is a clear explanation for the absence of adult guidelines (i.e. the fact that in the past patients with rare genetic syndromes often died before reaching adult age), there is an urgent need for an overview of medical issues at adult age, for 'best practice' and, if possible, for medical guidelines. The aim of this study is to get an overview of medical needs of adults with rare genetic syndromes, including: 1. comorbidities 2. medical and their impact on quality of life 3. medication use 4. the need for adaption of medication dose according to each syndrome Methods and Results This is a retrospective file study. Analysis will be performed using SPSS version 23 and R version 3.6.0.
NCT02844933
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of cannabidiol oral solution on hyperphagia-related behavior in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability, impact on quality of life, and impact on physical activity of cannabidiol oral solution in patients with PWS.

The Polyvagal Theory focuses on how function and structure changed in the vertebrate autonomic nervous system during evolution. The theory is named for the vagus, a major cranial nerve that regulates bodily state. As a function of evolution, humans and other mammals have a "new" vagal pathway that links the regulation of bodily state to the control of the muscles of the face and head including the middle ear muscles. These pathways regulating body state, facial gesture, listening (i.e., middle ear muscles), and vocal communication collectively function as a Social Engagement System (SES). Because the Social Engagement System is an integrated system, interventions influencing one component of this system (e.g., middle ear muscles) may impact on the other components. Individuals with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) exhibit many behaviors that are consistent with a compromised Social Engagement System. Atypical function of the Social Engagement System results in problems associated with state regulation (e.g., impulsivity, tantrums, and difficulty with change in routine), ingestion (e.g., difficulties in sucking at birth, hyperphagia), coordination of suck/swallow/breathe, intonation of vocalizations, auditory processing and hypersensitivity, and socialization. We propose to confirm that several features of the behavioral phenotype of PWS may be explained within the context of a dysfunctional SES (Specific Aim I), which may be partially rehabilitated via an intervention designed as a 'neural exercise' of the SES (Specific Aim II). Specific Aims: Aim I: To demonstrate that children with PWS have atypical regulation of the SES. We hypothesize these effects will be manifested by dampened vagal regulation of the heart (low parasympathetic tone); poor middle ear muscle regulation resulting in auditory hypersensitivities and poor auditory processing; lack of voice intonation (prosody), and difficulties in accurately detecting the emotions of others. Aim II: To demonstrate the effectiveness of the Listening Project Protocol (LPP) in decreasing the atypical features of the SES in adolescents with PWS. We hypothesize that individuals who complete the LPP will have improved vagal regulation of the heart, improved middle ear muscle regulation, increased voice intonation and improved ability to accurately detect the emotions of others.
NCT04484051
The overall objective of this study is to measure the effect of growth hormone (GH) treatment on physical and psychosocial health in adults with Prader-Willi syndrome. Adults with PWS who have not been treated with GH during the past three years and who will start with GH treatment as part of regular patient care will be asked for informed consent to participate in this open-label prospective cohort study. We hypothesize that growth hormone treatment will improve the physical and psychosocial health.
