A Study of RG1662 in Individuals With Down Syndrome

Start date: November 2011
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This multi-center, randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study will assess the safety and tolerability of RG1662 in individuals with Down Syndrome. Eligible subjects will be randomized in cohorts to receive either multiple oral doses of RG1662 or placebo. Anticipated time on study treatment is 38 days.

NCT ID: NCT01394796 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Egcg, a dyrk1a Inhibitor as Therapeutic Tool for Reversing Cognitive Deficits in Down Syndrome Individuals.

Start date: May 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

There is a mounting evidence of the modulation properties of the major catechin in green tea, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), on dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) gene overexpression in the brains of DS mouse models.The aims are to investigate the clinical benefits and safety of EGCG administration in young adults with DS, to establish short-term EGCG effects (three months) on neurocognitive performance, and to determine the persistency or reversibility of EGCG related effects after three months of discontinued use.

NCT ID: NCT01390558 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Gait Parameters of Persons With Down Syndrome With and Without Orthotics Using GaitRite

Start date: June 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a research study of persons with Down Syndrome between 2 and 80 years old who are independently walking. The purpose of this study is to see what effect orthotics have on how people with Down Syndrome walk.

NCT ID: NCT01379443 Completed - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Rehabilitation of Children With Multiple Disabilities

Start date: April 2007
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

NCT ID: NCT01313325 Completed - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Hippotherapy to Improve the Balance of Children With Movement Disorders

HPOT
Start date: September 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if adding hippotherapy treatment will improve balance for children ages 5-17 who have disabilities such as cerebral palsy and down syndrome. We also want to find out if by improving their balance the children increase their participation in age appropriate activities.

NCT ID: NCT01303133 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Natural History of Amyloid Deposition in Adults With Down Syndrome

Start date: August 2009
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary objective of this study is to assess the presence of amyloid in non-demented/functionally stable adults with DS as a function of age, dividing the sample into amyloid-positive and amyloid-negative groups. We will also obtain baseline cognitive measures across a range of areas that are often affected by AD.

NCT ID: NCT01256112 Completed - Down Syndrome Clinical Trials

Parent Supported Weight Reduction in Down Syndrome

Start date: September 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a nutrition and physical activity education program for families of overweight or obese adolescents with Down syndrome is more effective when behavioral lifestyle change strategies are added.

NCT ID: NCT01231919 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia

MK2206 in Treating Younger Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors or Leukemia

Start date: January 2011
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the side effects, best way to give, and best dose of Akt inhibitor MK2206 (MK2206) in treating patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. MK2206 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
