Clinical Trial Summary

Intro: Huntington's disease is a neurodegenerative disease that affects the brain, inducing a dysfunction and death of the middle spiny striatal projection neurons and a progressive alteration of cognitive and motor functions, and psycho-behavioral problems. There is currently no curative treatment but we know hat a multidisciplinary care can optimize the functioning and the quality of life of the patients with Huntington's disease. A meta-analysis of 18studies indicates that exercise and physical activity can improve motor function, gait speed and balance, and would also improve self-confidence, independence, well-being, reduced apathy and better socialization with family and friends. Hypothesis/Objective The hypothesis is that the inclusion of a 4 week-program with Adapted Physical Activity (APA) during a rehabilitation stay will improve some motor, cognitive and psycho-behavioral abilities, compared to the control group. Method The patients will be randomized into two groups : The control group will have the "classic" program performed in the standard of care with: kinesitherapy, soft gym, medico-social workshop, cognitive workshop, creative workshop, individual care (rehabilitation, rest, and creation). The experimental APA group will have in addition of the classic program, 6 APA workshops per week with collective support : Adapted Physical workshops, adapted cycling, therapeutic (horseback/equestrian) riding, cultural or leisure outings, situation tests For the two groups, at the start of the 4 weeks of rehabilitation program an initial visit will be performed with, as part of this research, a clinical examination, a neurological examination, a dietary consultation, as well as a biological assessment as part of habitual care. The clinical examination, the neurological examination and the dietary consultation will be performed each week, during the 4 weeks of the program, At the end of the study, one month after the rehabilitation of the patient, a visit by phone-call will be performed for the patient and his caregiver.
