Filter by:The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate Parkinson's disease research and drug development by using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, and/or store the samples for future use. Through this research, researchers hope to identify future treatments or even cures for Parkinson's disease.
Study J3Z-MC-OJAE is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label, dose-finding study of LY3884961 evaluating the safety and tolerability in adults with peripheral manifestations of GD. Up to 3 dose levels of LY3884961 will be assessed in 3 dose-finding cohorts of 3 patients. Following this, up to 6 patients may be enrolled into an expansion cohort. For each enrolled patient, the study will be approximately 5 years in duration, including up to a 45-day screening period. During the first 18 months after dosing, subjects will be evaluated for the effects of LY3884961 on safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, biomarkers, and efficacy. Patients will be followed up for an additional 42 months to monitor safety, immunogenicity, and selected biomarker and efficacy parameters.
Gaucher disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by deficient activity of the enzyme acid β-glucosidase, causing glucosylceramide to accumulate within macrophages and leading to hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and bone disease. In the non-neuronpathic form (type 1), disease manifestations are mostly systemic, whereas in the neuronopathic forms, glucosylceramide also accumulates in the central nervous sysem and leads to acute (type 2) or chronic (type 3) neurodegeneration. The purpose of this Phase 1/2 first-in-human study is to initially evaluate the safety and tolerability of two doses of CAN103, and then barring any safety concerns, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the two doses administered intravenously every other week in treatment-naive subjects with Gaucher disease type 1 or type 3.
This study is a first-in-human, open-label, safety, tolerability, and efficacy study in adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 1. The aims are to investigate the safety/tolerability and efficacy of FLT201, and to investigate the relationship of FLT201 dose to augmentation of residual glucocerebrosidase (GCase) expression (activity and concentration), and its potential to improve the clinical phenotype by reduction and prevention of cellular accumulation of GCase substrate.
Objective of the trial. To define a sub-population which is at increased risk of developing Parkinson, beyond the fact of carrying Gaucher; in this sub-population the investigators shall conduct a comprehensive evaluation that includes a variety of non-invasive tests, whose purpose is to evaluate the state of the pre- Parkinson's disease signs, signs which can appear, even twenty years before the appearance of the disease, and also to compare them to a group of diagnosed Gaucher patients and a group of healthy people who are not carriers of Gaucher disease. A group of those carriers will be available for trial or for treatment, if there will be a medicine for the prevention of the development of Parkinson, obtainable.
This is a parallel arm, Phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, active-comparator, 2 arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily oral venglustat versus intravenous Cerezyme infusions every two weeks for improvement or stabilization of the neurological manifestations and maintenance of systemic disease stability in participants aged ≥12 and <18 years and adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) who have been treated with Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) for at least 3 years.
Primary Objective: To assess prevalence of Gaucher disease (GD) diagnosed in pediatric patients presenting with unexplained splenomegaly (SMG) after exclusion of first intention-diagnoses (e.g. portal hypertension, haematological malignancy, hemolytic anemia, infection) based on clinical examination and routine biological tests (full blood count, reticulocytes, liver tests, abdominal ultrasound, Coombs test and Epstein Barr virus serology). Secondary Objectives: - To describe the rate of each identified disease category and the rate of patients with no final diagnosis at the end of the study in pediatric patients with unexplained SMG after exclusion of first intention diagnoses - To describe the characteristics (clinical, lab, genetics) of all pediatric patients included in the study and to describe the characteristics subdivided by identified disease category and absence of final diagnosis at the end of the study
This project is a randomized controlled trial to use a mobile health journal, called Zamplo (formerly known as MyHealthJournal or ZoeInsights), to record patient reported outcomes (PROM) in patients with metabolic disorders. The objective of the study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability and potential effectiveness of the Zamplo. The primary hypothesis is as follows: The Zamplo platform will significantly increase patient activation at 6 months post-baseline, defined as an individual's knowledge, skill, and confidence for managing their health and health care. The primary outcome is as follows: Patient activation following the use of Zamplo will serve as the primary outcome of interest and will be measured by the Patient Activation Measure (PAM) 13. The PAM 13 shows the degree of the patient's ability to manage their health with confidence by providing a total patient activation score. Brief Background: This project is a randomized controlled trial to use a mobile health journal, called Zamplo, to record patient reported outcomes (PROM) in patients with metabolic disorders. Zamplo is a software as a service (SaaS) digital platform on both iOS and Android platforms that allows real-time entry of patient symptoms and response to medications. It provides the patients with an interface to see their progress, store questions that they will ask at the next clinic visit, record their health data and use their data to engage in their health outcomes. MAGIC Clinic Ltd., which is the largest clinic in Alberta that manages metabolic disorders such as Fabry disease, Pompe disease, and Gaucher disease, will provide access to Zamplo to patients free-of-charge to evaluate its utility in managing the symptoms of their disease. Brief Study Design: The study is a two-armed randomized controlled design with 1:1 allocation to treatment (Zamplo app group) or control (usual care) arms, with assessments at four time points: baseline, 1 month, 3 months (primary outcome), 6 months and 12 months follow-up post-baseline. This is an open-label trial. The investigators intend to recruit 150 participants in this study, with 75 of them being controls. Inclusion Criteria: Adult patients with a diagnosis of metabolic disease Access to a smartphone with data connection Willingness to devote 10-15 mins of time in a day to log medications and notes Able to speak and write English sufficiently to complete questionnaires. Exclusion Criteria: Insufficient cognitive function to participate in the study The use of any electronic application requires some competency with the software on a cellphone, downloading the application and entering the data. Some patients who are elderly may not be familiar with this technology and would be excluded.
The investigators aims to determine the the maternal and fetal safety and feasibility of in utero fetal enzyme replacement therapy in fetuses with Lysosomal Storage Diseases.
Ambroxol hydrochloride is an oral mucolytic drug available over-the-counter for many years as cough medicine. In 2009 it was found to also act as a pharmacological chaperone (PC) for mutant glucocerebrosidase, albeit in a several-fold higher dose. Unfortunately, due to its low cost, there have been no pharma-driven clinical trials to establish the use of ambroxol. Thus, data are needed on the safety and efficacy of ambroxol for patients with Gaucher disease (GD).
