Filter by:The study will assess the acceptability and feasibility of a randomised controlled trial of 6-12 sessions of remotely-delivered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) versus waitlist control. Waitlist control will involve a delay in the offer of ACT sessions for 12 weeks. Participants may access all services as usual in this time. Follow-up assessments will be conducted at 12-, 24 and 48 weeks post-randomisation to measure effectiveness.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of NPC-12Y gel compared with placebo for skin lesions associated with tuberous sclerosis.
This is a Phase 3, global, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of adjunctive GNX treatment in children and adults with TSC-related epilepsy. The study consists of a 4-week prospective Baseline phase, defined as the first 28 days following screening, followed by a double-blind phase consisting of a 4-week titration period (Day 1 to Day 28) and a 12-week maintenance period (Day 29 to Week 16).
Tuberous Sclerosis is a rare genetic disorder that affects about one in 15,000 individuals. It is part of the phacomatoses: a germline mutation of the gene Tuberous Sclerosis Complex 1 (TSC1) or TSC2 causes a protein dysfunction, hamartin and tuberin respectively, leading to mTOR signaling pathway activation, thus tumors rise on the skin but also brain, eyes, kidneys, heart. Thanks to the advent of sequencing techniques of the human genome, genes involved were found twenty years ago. Most commonly, these are de novo private mutations and autosomal dominant Mendelian transmission. About 15% of patients have a phenotype corresponding to the disease but no mutation is found. Although the initial clinical description was in 1880, publications regularly describe new signs in Tuberous Sclerosis, especially for skin. Cutaneous manifestations are important in the diagnostic criteria of the disease and often even the first sign of appeal. However, no data is available on the relationship between genotype and dermatological phenotype. Therefore the investigator intend to review all cutaneous finding in Tuberous Sclerosis patient and try to link with their mutation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety in patients with TSC and refractory seizures who are currently receiving everolimus treatment in the Novartis-sponsored EXIST-3 study and who are determined to be benefiting from continued treatment as judged by the investigator at the completion of EXIST-3
This is a single centre, two-arm, individually randomised, Phase II, double- blind, placebo-controlled trial of RAD001 (Everolimus) versus placebo in the treatment of neurocognitive problems in patients with tuberous sclerosis (TSC). The IMP is a licensed medicine in this patient group but for a different target of effect. The current trial is a proof of principle study for memory and executive function outcomes. Following an eligibility visit, patients will be scheduled for baseline visit and randomization. They will then be followed up for 6 months undergoing both safety and neurocognitive assessments whilst taking either the placebo or study drug. 48 patients aged 16 to 60 years with tuberous sclerosis (TSC) who have IQ > 60 and a significant deficit in one or more primary outcome measures will be randomly allocated in a ratio of 2:1 to either RAD001 (Everolimus) or Placebo.
