Filter by:This is a prospective study in a cohort of about 45 patients with ALS participating in the Neurosense PrimeC drug study (NCT05357950). This study aims to evaluate the correlation between oculometric measures and clinical endpoints. Subjects will be evaluated every 2 months during a time period of 18 months. The evaluations will include ALSFRS-R examination, as well as an oculometric evaluation for eye movements.
In this studly, the effects of an 12-week aerobic exercise training in persons with multiple sclerosis with restless legs syndrome will be investigated.
The LIMS study is an observational study that investigates the effectiveness of an online lifestyle program for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The patients will be monitored during 27 months, starting 3 months prior to the start of the lifestyle program.
This is a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 18F-OP-801 in subjects with ALS, AD, MS, PD and age-matched HVs. 18F-OP-801 is intended as a biomarker for PET imaging of activated microglia and macrophages in regions of neuroinflammation.
Clinical study BCD-132-4/MIRANTIBUS is an international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-masked study using an active reference drug (teriflunomide). The goal of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BCD-132 in the treatment of patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis.
A multi-center double-blinded placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial. The patients will be randomized into two groups. To investigate the efficacy of SNM to improve the key bladder diary variables compared to placebo (i.e. sham) for patients with MS having refractory neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD). After first step SNM-procedure and a 3-4 weeks test period patients with more than 50% improvement in the key bladder diary variables will have the IPG implanted. After a month of optimization patients will into two groups: IPG ON or IPG OFF. Period of randomization: four months. Number anticipated to be included: 60 patients
The proposed study is a single-center, phase II, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active-placebo-controlled trial of intravenous low-dose ketamine in patients with MS fatigue.
It was planned to examine the effects of motor imagery and action observation training applied in addition to standard rehabilitation in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis on walking, fatigue, trunk control and muscle oxygenation.
The clinical trial is intended to assess for clinical evidence of Clemastine Fumarate as a myelin repair therapy in patients with chronic inflammatory injury-causing demyelination as measured by multi-parametric MRI assessments. No reparative therapies exist for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Clemastine fumarate was identified along with a series of other antimuscarinic medications as a potential remyelinating agent using the micropillar screen (BIMA) developed at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Following in vivo validation, an FDA IND exemption was granted to investigate clemastine for the treatment of multiple sclerosis in the context of chronic optic neuropathy. That pilot study was recently completed and is the first randomized control trial documenting efficacy for a putative remyelinating agent for the treatment of MS. The preselected primary efficacy endpoint (visual evoked potential) was met and a strong trend to benefit was seen for the principal secondary endpoint assessing function (low contrast visual acuity). That trial number was 13-11577. This study seeks to follow up on that study and examine clemastine fumarate's protective and reparative effects in the context of chronic demyelinating brain lesions as imaged by multi-parametric MRI assessments. The investigators will be assessing the effects of clemastine fumarate as a remyelinating therapy and assessing its effect on MRI metrics of chronic lesions found in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. In addition to using conventional multi-parametric MRI assessments, this study will also evaluate a new MRI technique called Ultrashort Echo Time (UTE) MRI to assess the effects of clemastine fumarate as a remyelinating therapy of chronic lesions found in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and compare it to the other assessments.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a relentlessly progressive neurodegenerative disorder with no effective disease-modifying therapies at present. The disease is sporadic in 90 % of the ALS patients. Up to 40 % familial ALS cases and up to 25% of familial frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are caused by autosomal dominant GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9orf72 gene. The presymptomatic phase of the disease represents a unique opportunity to evaluate mechanisms of disease propagation, characterise patterns of anatomical spread, validate staging systems and appraise the comparative sensitivity profile of emerging imaging modalities. Very few spinal cord imaging studies currently exist in ALS despite their potential to characterise both the lower and upper motor neuron components of the disease. This prospective longitudinal study of asymptomatic and symptomatic c9orf72 hexanucleotide carriers will use a purpose-designed spinal and brain imaging protocol and comprehensive clinical, genetic, electrophysiological and neuropsychological profiling. Newly developed imaging techniques such as spinal cord NODDI, spinal fMRI, quantitative thoracic cord imaging will be implemented in addition to established spinal cord and brain imaging techniques.
