Filter by:Inborn Errors of metabolism comprise a large number of rare conditions with a collective incidence of around 1/2000 newborns. Many disorders are treatable provided that a correct diagnosis can be established in time, and for many diseases novel therapies are being developed. Without treatment, many of the conditions result in early death or severe irreversible handicaps. The Centre for Inherited Metabolic Diseases, CMMS at Karolinska university hospital, is an integrated expert center where clinical specialists work closely together with experts in laboratory medicine, combining clinical genetics, clinical chemistry, pediatrics, neurology, and endocrinology. The center serves the whole Swedish population with diagnostics and expert advice on IEM and has a broad arsenal of biochemical investigations designed to detect defects in intermediary metabolism.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of RAG-17 in adult amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with SOD1 mutation. Patients will receive drug treamtent via dose escalation which ranging from minimum of 60 mg to the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), after reaching the tolerated dose, a fixed dose of the drug is given once every two months for continuous treatment, and the total treatment cycle is 8 months. The duration of this study is two years.
The HEALEY ALS Platform Trial is a perpetual multi-center, multi-regimen clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of investigational products for the treatment of ALS. Regimen G will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single study drug, DNL343, in participants with ALS.
The HEALEY ALS Platform Trial is a perpetual multi-center, multi-regimen clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of investigational products for the treatment of ALS. Regimen F will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single study drug, ABBV-CLS-7262, in participants with ALS.
The primary objective of this study is to document and describe the effects of a personalized rehabilitation program for patients with SOD1 ALS participating in the tofersen expanded access program. Participants currently receiving tofersen treatment will be referred to outpatient physical and/or occupational therapy. Participants will have an initial assessment performed and an individualized rehabilitation program will be prescribed. Each participant is encouraged to follow the prescribed recommendations that will include scheduled outpatient therapy sessions, functional assessments, and/or a home-based rehabilitation program. Functional assessments will be done at a minimum of every three months.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMX0035 over 108 weeks of open label treatment for participants previously enrolled in Study A35-004 (PHOENIX).
The purpose of this study is to explore the genetic causes relevant for ALS development in Norway.
The investigators seek to validate Slow Vital Capacity (SVC) measurement in seated and supine positions using conventional and portable spirometry.
1. To investigate the biomarkers of MND/FTD spectrum disease 2. To explore the possible pathogenesis of MND/FTD
The current project will aid patients with motor impairment to reduce the need for homecare. Specifically the aim is to develop and implement a robotic exoskeleton and brain computer interface to assist and eventually perform arm and hand movement in patients with the progressive neurodegenerative disease ALS. This proposal brings together state-of-the-art robotic technology, EEG-based brain computer interface (BCI) know-how, clinical expertise, patient perspective and industrial partners to develop and implement a robotic arm/hand device that will adapt, with increasing brain-computer control, based on the need of the patient. In short the BCI will measure electroencephalography (EEG) from the surface of the scalp and recognize signature EEG as the patient intents to move. As the patient loses muscle power the BCI robotic-device will gradually take over and support motor activity, even when the patient is totally paralyzed. As the device supports hand/arm function only, the investigators aim to address ADLs associated to hand function, specifically eating activities.
