Filter by:Multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of metformin treatment at a dose of 1700 mg / day in adults with Huntington's disease. The study consists of a screening period (2 to 4 weeks), followed by a 52-week double-blind treatment period and a follow-up visit (one month after the end of treatment).
This is a prospective investigation which aims to address key challenges to the design of clinical trials to prevent the onset of Huntington's disease (HD). The project will provide necessary psychometric data for clinical outcome assessments (COAs) and biomarkers (BMs) in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) to address questions of central importance to the success of these measures for premanifest clinical trials. Of the 258 participants: 52 will be low risk of motor diagnosis, 102 high risk of motor diagnosis, 52 with diagnosed HD (stages I or II), and 52 healthy controls. Participants can expect to be in the study for up to 2 years.
Examine the effects of deutetrabenazine on functional speech and gait impairment
AIM: To assess synaptic density and to investigate the potential relationship of regional synaptic loss with motor and non-motor symptoms and with disease progression in the human brain in vivo in patients with HD. DESIGN: The investigators will include 20 HD mutations carriers and 15 healthy controls. All subjects will undergo a clinical examination, with comprehensive assessment of motor and non-motor symptoms, and imaging evaluation consisting of 11C-UCB-J PET-CT and 18F-FDG PET-MR at baseline and after 2 years.
The purprose of this study is to develop and validate an analytical NIPD test for triplet repeat disesases by NGS analysis from maternal blood, searching for the familial mutation in families at risk of having one of the following triplet repeat diseases: Huntington's disease, Myotonic dystrophy, Fragile X syndrome.. A comparison of two 3rd generation long fragment DNA sequencing techniques will be performed. These methods are based of the phasing techniques of parental haplotypes without the proband.
The study proposes to identify deviant speech dimensions in patients with HD at presymptomatic and declared stages of the disease, compared to healthy subjects, using the computerized MonPaGe speech protocol. This tool is based on a multidimensional and quantified assessment of voice and speech, by a set of targeted acoustic and perceptual criteria.
WVE-HDSNP2-002 is an open-label extension (OLE) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and clinical effects of WVE-120102 in adult patients with early manifest HD who carry a targeted single nucleotide polymorphism, rs362331 (SNP2). To participate in the study, patients must have completed the Phase 1b/2a clinical study WVE-HDSNP2-001.
WVE-HDSNP1-002 is an open-label extension (OLE) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and clinical effects of WVE-120101 in adult patients with early manifest HD who carry a targeted single nucleotide polymorphism, rs362307 (SNP1). To participate in the study, patients must have completed the Phase 1b/2a clinical study WVE-HDSNP1-001.
The study is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled cross-over trial to assess the efficacy as well as safety and tolerability of auditory SWS enhancement on measured outcomes in Parkinson disease (PD) patients with disturbed nighttime sleep. Additionally, the investigators will assess the feasibility and efficacy of auditory slow-wave sleep (SWS) enhancement in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Huntington Disease (HD) patients in a pilot study.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pridopidine 45mg twice daily (BID) in patients with early stage manifest Huntington Disease (HD).
