Filter by:The objective of this phase III, placebo-controlled platform study is to investigate the efficacy of drugs for patients with ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oral doses of FB418 in healthy adult subjects and healthy elderly subjects.
The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and target engagement of accelerated, high dose continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in patients with ALS.
ZYIL1 is expected to show benefit in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The present study aims to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of ZYIL1 when administered to subjects with ALS.
The aim of this study is to understand how well a 6-week virtual yogic breathing exercise program (YBEP) will improve breathing, speech, and emotional well-being in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, is a rare neurodegenerative disease resulting in loss, primarily, of the motor neurons in the motor cortex, brainstem and spinal cord. It currently affects 3 of every 100,000 people in the US. Currently, there is no diagnostic tool for ALS, resulting in misdiagnosis and significant disease progression before formal diagnosis. An imaging test for early detection of ALS and for monitoring disease progression would have significant diagnostic and prognostic value. PET imaging with an appropriate radiotracer has great potential as a biomarker for ALS given that it would permit visualization of central nervous system (CNS) pathology in individuals living with the disease. To that extent, the primary goal of this phase I study is evaluating the safety and biodistribution of the new tracer [89Zr]Zr-DFO-AP-101 in healthy volunteers and ALS patients.
This is a data repository for multi-site multi-protocol clinic-based Natural History Study of ALS and Other Motor Neuron Disorders (MND). All people living with ALS or other MNDs who attend clinics at the Study hospitals (sites) are offered to participate in the Study. The Sites collect so-called Baseline information including demographics, disease history and diagnosis, family history, etc. At each visit, the Sites also collect multiple disease-specific outcome measures and events. The information is captured in NeuroBANK, a patient-centric clinical research platform. The Sites have an option to choose to collect data into 20+ additional forms capturing biomarkers and outcome measures. Captured data after its curation are anonymized (all personal identifiers and dates are being removed), and the anonymized dataset is shared with medical researchers via a non-exclusive revocable license.
Ambroxol is a simple cough medicine that is predicted to slow ALS disease progression. This study aims to investigate if ambroxol in high doses is effective in treating ALS. This study will be carried out across 5 research sites in Australia (2 NSW, 1 VIC, 1 SA and 1 TAS), where newly diagnosed ALS patients will be asked to participate. Participation will be over a 32-week period, where they will come in for a 4-week screening, 24-week treatment, and 4-week end of study safety follow-up period. The participants will receive either the placebo or drug solution that they will take three times a day, up-dosing each week until they reach the maximum dose or highest dose they can tolerate. Throughout the study their disease progression will be assessed using tests, questionnaires, and blood biomarkers.
Determine if Telehealth intervention can allow/empower a caregiver (who is untrained) to effectively implement and utilize a Brain-Computer Interface for communication with a participant who is "Locked in" following progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and other conditions.
In this Phase 1 adult symptomatic patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) carrying a superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutation thought to be causative of ALS, will receive single ascending doses of ARO-SOD1 administered by intrathecal (IT) infusion. The study is primarily intended to evaluate safety, but will also evaluate the effect of ARO-SOD1 on SOD1 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels as a biomarker of pharmacodynamic (PD) effect, therefore lumbar punctures will be required at timepoints throughout the study. After each participant has completed their individual final visit, participants whose SOD1 CSF levels have recovered to a satisfactory level may rescreen and enroll into higher dose cohorts; or if unable or unwilling to rescreen may enroll into an open-label study to be added by amendment when supported by nonclinical data for multidose administration.
