Filter by:A Single site (Shirley Ryan AbilityLab) Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 1b/2a Study of NVG-291 in Spinal Cord Injury Subjects
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), being a devastating diagnosis, has little to no recovery which leads to a long-standing of debilitating impairment for affected patients. The National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) Neurosurgery team, together with our collaborators, will be embarking on a new clinical pilot trial named RESTORES: RESToration of Rehabilitative function with Epidural Spinal Stimulation. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of electrical stimulation via a spinal cord stimulator (SCS), which will be implanted into the study subjects, and advanced robotic neuro-rehabilitation to aid in improving neurological function in patients diagnosed with chronic SCI. A total of 3 patients, male and female participants, above the age of 21 who have been diagnosed with the condition for more than a year will be recruited for this study over a 2-year period. Rehab sessions will take place pre and post-surgical implant, assessing subject improvements.
The LIFT Home Study is an observational, single-arm study designed to assess the safety of non-invasive electrical spinal stimulation (ARC Therapy) administered by the LIFT System to treat upper extremity functional deficits in people with chronic tetraplegia.
The Up-LIFT Study is a prospective, single-arm study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of non-invasive electrical spinal cord stimulation (ARC Therapy) administered by the LIFT System to treat upper extremity functional deficits in people with chronic tetraplegia.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of home transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) in spinal cord injury(SCI) and to determine the impact on quality of life using TTNS at home
This two-part trial will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of AXER-204 administered by lumbar puncture and slow bolus infusion. Part 1 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of single ascending doses of AXER-204. Part 2 will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of repeated doses AXER-204 in comparison to placebo.
Determine the safety, feasibility, compliance, and efficacy of a daily home TTNS protocol in chronic SCI provided by self or caregiver for 4 weeks.
This study is being done to measure the differences between the electrical activity of muscles and /single muscle fibers in individuals with long-term spinal cord injury and neurologically intact individuals without spinal cord injury. This study is also being done to find out if muscle and /single muscle fiber electrical activity, voluntary strength, reflex measurements, and/or spasms are changed after a single, oral dose of three commonly prescribed drugs, Rilutek®, isradipine, and Namenda®. These medications are approved by the FDA for treatment of disorders other than the control of spasms and strength. In this study, they are being used in an experimental manner. Finally, this study is also being done to find out whether or not a brief stretching exercise influences reflex measurements. The main hypothesis of this study is that aberrant current activity in spinal motoneurons contributes to spastic hyper-reflexia following chronic spinal cord injury.
This study is designed to assess the safety of autologous bone marrow derived cell transplant in chronic spinal cord injury patients. The hypothesis is that the availability of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells at the sites of injury promote neuronal regeneration.
