Filter by:Phase 2b/3 double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess safety and efficacy of SLS-005 (trehalose injection, 90.5 mg/mL for intravenous infusion) for the treatment of adults with spinocerebellar ataxia).
Interventional study of the effects of vibro-tactile feedback on behavioral deficits and learning during motor training in patients with sensory ataxia.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of BIIB132 administered via intrathecal (IT) injection to participants with spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). The secondary objective of this study is to characterize the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIIB132 administered via IT injection to participants with SCA3.
A pilot trial to determine the feasibility of treadmill training with dual training in patients with Fragile X-Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS).
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a fetal, rare neurodegenerative disease presenting with parksinonism, autonomic dysfunction, and cerebellar ataxia. Numerous anti-parkinsonism agents have been developed. However, no medication has yet been proven effective for the symptomatic or even causative treatment in cerebellar ataxia. To our knowledge, cerebellar N-methyl-D- aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors play a special role in the modulation of motor learning and coordination. Tllsh2910, a NMDA modulator, has been found to attenuate the ataxic gait in the mouse model. Here, we designed a large-scale double-blind randomized controlled, cross-over phase III trial to investigate the efficacy of Tllsh2910 in neurodegenerative ataxic patients and the association of gut microbiota change.
The proposed study aims to characterize ataxia occurring in essential tremor and essential tremor with DBS.
The objectives of this study are to determine i) the effect of rhythmic entrainment of speech with hand gestures and auditory rhythmic cues on intelligibility and speech naturalness in Spanish-accented speakers of English in two pathology groups: ataxic dysarthria and hypokinetic dysarthria secondary to idiopathic Parkinson's disease; and ii) the extent to which speech rate and effort are control parameters of entrainment. These objectives will be achieved with the following specific aims: Specific Aim 1: Determine the effect of three rates of hand gestures and auditory rhythmic cues and the degree to which learning and carry-over occur. Specific Aim 2: Determine the effect of increased speech effort, operationalized as clear speech, and the interaction effect of clear speech with hand gestures and auditory rhythmic cues. Specific Aim 3: Investigate the perception of speech rhythm and its relationship to entrainment.
The objective of this research is to study the sphincter activity during ejaculation in patients with spinal cord injury in order to detect an ejaculatory dyssynergia. For this purpose, using a catheter the protocol plans to measure the sphincter pressures during ejaculation. Moreover, cardiovascular parameters will be measured continuously during the ejaculatory test.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple rising doses of TAK-831 in healthy participants.
This research is being done to better understand the causes of the disease Ataxia-Telangiectasia and, in the longer-term, develop new therapies for the disease using stem cells. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) are a type of cells that can be made in the laboratory from cells in your body, such as blood cells or skin cells (fibroblasts). These stem cells can then be used for research purposes. For example, stem cells can be used to investigate how the mutation in ATM causes the actual symptoms of Ataxia-Telangiectasia. In addition, the stem cells can be used to screen for drugs that could be helpful to treat the disease or to develop new laboratory techniques to correct the mutation that causes Ataxia-Telangiectasia. where the mutation that causes the disease is corrected by the investigators. The stem cells generated in this study will not be used directly for patient therapy and therefore this research does not have a direct benefit to you. However, it will help advance our understanding of the disease and develop future therapies. Patients who enroll in this study will get all of the standard therapy they would get for their tumor whether or not they participate in this study. There is no extra or different therapy given. The study involves a one-time procedure (either blood collection or skin biopsy).
