Frontotemporal Dementia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Palmitoylethanolamide Combined With Luteoline in Frontotemporal Dementia Patients. A Randomized Controlled Trial
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder. It is the second most frequent cause of presenile neurodegenerative dementia in those less than 65 years of age. Currently, there is no effective pharmacological treatment to slow down the progression of FTD. Recently, it has been proposed that neuroinflammation could be involved in specific forms of FTD and that novel drugs targeting neuroinflammation could potentially be useful in FTD treatment. An available form of ultra-micronized PEA combined with luteoline (PEA-LUT) has gained attention for its proven anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties reported in neurodegenerative conditions related to FTD, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. The administration of PEA-LUT treatment may have a clinical impact in behavioural variant FTD (bv-FTD) patients. In particular, PEA-LUT treatment could be able to reduce behavioural disturbances, the more disabling symptoms in bv-FTD, with a related improvement of daily living activities of affected people. Moreover, a multimodal approach (cognitive/neurophysiological) can be used to assess the brain correlates related to the clinical improvement associated with PEA-LUT treatment, thus making remarkable strides in understanding how FTD affects the brain. Potentially the proposed project could provide a valid treatment for cognitive and behavioural dysfunction in FTD patients, with consistent impact for the National Health Systems and minimum cost for the patients.
