Filter by:This study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of RO7234292 (RG6042) in participants who have completed other F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Ltd.-sponsored and/or Genentech-sponsored studies in the Huntington's disease (HD) in the development program for RG6042.
This study is a phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of SAGE-718 oral solution in healthy adults (Part A) with an open-label cohort of patients with Huntington's disease (Part B)
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and biomarker effects of RO7234292 (RG6042) compared with placebo in participants with manifest Huntington's disease (HD)
The study is a single, cross-sectional cognitive interview of FuRST 2.0, functional rating scale, administered to forty Huntington's Disease Gene Expansion Carriers (HDGECs) and potentially, their companions (the companion's participation is optional in this study). The scale will be tested as a patient reported outcome (PRO) in that the information will come directly from the HDGEC participant or the HDGEC participant together with his/her companion through self-report. The purpose is to identify real or potential comprehension or usage problems with scale items, response options, instructions and disclaimer statement, which are all components of the FuRST 2.0 scale. Through a structured cognitive interview with the HDGEC participants or the HDGEC participants together with their companions, followed by qualitative analysis, the final phrasing of the individual scale items, response options, instructions and disclaimer statement for the scale will be generated. Depending on the results of this study, an additional round of cognitive pre-testing may be required in a separate study.
The study is designed as a multi-site, prospective, 15-month longitudinal, cohort study measuring CSF mHTT in participants with early manifest Stage I or Stage II Huntington's Disease (HD).
Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare, inherited and progressive neurodegenerative disorder for which hallmark symptoms include movement disorders, loss of cognitive faculties and psychiatric disturbances. With the progression of the disease, patients require increasing level of medical care, caregiver support, and long-term care, which lead to substantial burden of illness. Very little data are available on the direct or indirect costs for HD. The direct medical costs of HD in the US have been summarized from retrospective commercial and Medicaid claims data analysis. The indirect and out-of-pocket costs of HD in the US have not been quantified. This study will help to bridge these gaps. This study is a single-assessment, cross-sectional online survey administered to Huntington disease gene expansion carriers (HDGECs) and companions of HDGECs by HD stage to understand the indirect and out-of-pocket costs of Huntington's disease in the US.
Phase IIa study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SOM3355 in chorea movements associated with Huntington's disease
The purpose of this research study is to study the safety and efficacy of fenofibrate, an FDA-approved drug for high cholesterol and/or elevated triglycerides (fats), as a treatment for Huntington's disease (HD). Subjects who meet the entry criteria will be randomized (3:1) to either 145mg of fenofibrate or placebo.
This study is being conducted to learn more about family communication of genetic risk information. Semi-structured interviews lasting up to one hour will be conducted with three populations: parent/child pairs at risk for Huntington's Disease, parent/child pairs at risk for hereditary cancer, and genetic counselors.
Phase A: Recruit 50 patients with HD, and their caregivers, to complete a neuropsychiatric and quality of life battery of scales at baseline. Have these 50 patients complete a formal psychiatric assessment with a psychiatrist within 2 weeks of this clinical battery, and the results of these 2 types of assessments will be compared to establish the level of agreement between clinical rating scales and formal psychiatric assessment. Phase B: Continue to follow Phase A cohort longitudinally and administer neuropsychiatric and quality of life battery at 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months form baseline. Recruit an additional 50 patients, administer the same neuropsychiatric and quality of life battery at baseline, implement medication and counseling intervention according to a standard of care protocol, and follow up with the same neuropsychiatric and quality of life battery at 6, 12, and 18 months.
