Filter by:This is an OLE study conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and clinical effects of WVE-004 in adult patients with ALS, FTD, or mixed ALS/FTD phenotype with a documented mutation in the C9orf72 gene. To participate in the study, patients must have successfully completed Phase 1b/2a WVE-004-001 study.
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of two dosing regimens of oral edaravone in subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), based on the time from the randomization date in Study MT-1186-A02 to at least a 12-point decrease in Revised ALS Functional Rating Score (ALSFRS-R) or death, whichever happens first, over the course of the study or until oral edaravone is commercially available in that country
This is a Phase 1b/2a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of intrathecal (IT) WVE-004 in adult patients with C9orf72-associated ALS or FTD. To participate in the study, patients must have a documented mutation (GGGGCC [G4C2] repeat expansion) in the first intronic region of the C9orf72 gene and be diagnosed with ALS or FTD.
To evaluate and compare the efficacy of two dosing regimens of oral edaravone in subjects with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) based on the change in ALS Functional Rating Scale- Revised (ALSFRS-R) score from baseline up to Week 48:
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether longitudinal neuroimaging acquired across multiple research and clinical centers is a feasible biomarker to use as an outcome measure for clinical trials in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ravulizumab for the treatment of adult participants with ALS.
This is an open-label clinical trial to determine the safety and efficacy of rTMS in reducing spasticity and improving quality of life among patients with upper motor neuron predominant motor neuron disease (MND).
This is an observational study of medical marijuana manufactured and dispensed by Ilera and given as standard treatment for a variety of approved serious medical conditions as defined by individual state law. All patients who are receiving one of the four formulations (Dream, Soothe, Shine and Ease) of medical marijuana will be provided a study flyer and asked to contact the study team via phone or email. Once the study team confirms eligibility, the study team will meet the subject face-to-face most likely at their dispensary (or other mutually agreeable location) and obtain informed consent, and assent when appropriate. Initial baseline demographic information, medical history and medication inventory will be completed. Also, since it is possible that the Investigators will enroll subjects across the region, Investigators anticipate the need to seek consent over the phone for many patients. This will be done via Skype, Go to Meeting, Facetime or similar platforms so that the Investigators can have a face to face interaction with the potential subjects. Regardless of where this discussion takes place (i.e., in person or via the web), all reasonable safeguards to ensure patient privacy will be taken. Patients or their legally authorized representative (LAR) will be given sufficient (i.e., up to several hours/days) to make a decision to participate in this study. Study staff will fax or email the consent form for their signature and no study procedures will begin until the signed consent form is received by the study team. The subjects or their LARs will be instructed on obtaining the blood samples. Blood draws will be completed in the subjects' home after one of their standard doses is taken.
This is an open-label clinical trial to determine the safety of rTMS and efficacy in improving depression symptoms, quality of life and cognition deficits among patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative disorders.
The principal goal is to demonstrate that a specific pattern of microRNA (miRNA) expression can be correlated with the definite diagnostic of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The investigators will use biological sample (from muscle biopsy, Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) and blood sample) collected in three control populations: definite ALS patients according to El Escorial diagnostic criterion, control patients without any neurological disease having an orthopedic surgery for shoulder disease, and control patient explored for peripheral neuropathy and myopathy. A second goal will correlate the miRNA pattern to the severity and/or progression rate of the motor neurons define as the progression rate of the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS) score/year.
