Filter by:CIDP is a heterogeneous disease with variable responses to therapy. Recently, a distinctive subgroup of patients with serum autoantibodies to the paranodal proteins contactin and neurofascin have been identified. Although they present with active and serious disease, multiple clinical reports suggest that these patients can be cured with a treatment that depletes B cells and presumably eliminates pathogenic autoantibodies. However, beyond that subgroup of CIDP patients, which CIDP patients might benefit from Rituximab and B cell depletion is unknown. This Phase II study will treat 3 homogenous groups of 16 CIDP patients each with Rituximab in order to determine if there are subgroups that can be taken off current medications and put into long-term remission. The results from this study will be used to design a future larger trial. Biomarkers including paranodal antibodies, serum neurofilament light chains, anti-ganglioside antibodies will be obtained in order to learn about disease pathogenesis and possibly target therapy
The project will develop knowledge about physical activity in persons with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) in Norway. We plan to explore instruments to measure physical activity level for the target-group at the community level. We want to understand which type of activities, activity intensities and how persons with CMT perform habitual physical activity. Subsequently, a physical activity measurement instrument adapted to persons with CMT will be developed. This instrument can be used in a future intervention project to promote physical activity in this group.
See updated study design under NCT04882735. Phase 3 efficacy and safety of AG10 compared with placebo in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Polyneuropathy (ATTR-PN)
This study is an experimental single centre study investigating the effect of VR on overall sleep quality and number of awakenings in patients with diabetic polyneuropathy.
Patients with type 2 DM who are following will be enrolled into the study. Two visits were scheduled for data collection, physical examination and laboratory testing of the patients: the first prior to initiation of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) administration (baseline visit) and the second at the end of the third month following initiation of ALA (2nd visit).
This study will provide further insights into the natural course of the disease about Immune-Mediated Neuropathies including clinical features，progression, related antibody spectrum and drug treatment effect.
This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP.
This is the open-label extension study of phase II ARGX-113-1802 to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP. Patients already stabilized on efgartigimod PH20 SC will also have the opportunity to participate in a sub study to explore less frequent dosing of efgartigimod PH20 SC.
To assess the bioequivalence of test oral formulation of Alpha Lipoic acid 600 mg HR film coated tablets of Ilko Ilac San. Ve Tic. A.S. versus reference Thioctacid (Alpha Lipoic acid) 600 mg HR film coated tablets of Meda Pharma GmbH& CO .KG, Germany.
Autonomic neuropathy is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Symptoms from cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy include, dizziness, orthostatic hypotension and insufficient heart rate and blood pressure (BP) regulation during physical exertion. The degree of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy is most commonly measured as cardiac autonomic neuropathy based on at least two abnormal cardiac reflex tests, which primarily measures parasympathetic indices of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Few measures are available for quantifying the sympathetic/adrenergic branch of the ANS. Circadian changes in BP is a documented measure of BP variability, regulated centrally by a multitude of centers. A growing number of studies indicate that a diminished BP variability is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and injury. The ANS plays a pivotal role in the execution of these circadian BP changes, mainly through sympathetic adrenergic nerve fibers Few studies have investigated the applicability of 24-hour indices as predictor for autonomic adrenergic dysfunction. No previous studies have investigated the association between clinical markers of adrenergic function, and 24-hour blood pressure indices in type 2 diabetes.
