Clinical Trial Summary

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the efficacy of interferon beta and thalidomide in male patients with adrenoleukodystrophy who show evidence of brain inflammatory response and are receiving concurrent glyceryl trierucate and glyceryl trioleate (Lorenzo's oil).

II. Evaluate the progress of the disease and possible side effects of the medication in these patients.


Clinical Trial Description

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study. Patients are randomized to receive beta interferon and thalidomide placebo (arm I), thalidomide and beta interferon placebo (arm II), or placebo for both beta interferon and thalidomide (arm III). Patients receive interferon beta by subcutaneous injection and thalidomide orally. All patients are maintained on glyceryl trierucate and glyceryl trioleate (Lorenzo's oil) therapy.
