Filter by:Determine if Telehealth intervention can allow/empower a caregiver (who is untrained) to effectively implement and utilize a Brain-Computer Interface for communication with a participant who is "Locked in" following progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and other conditions.
In this Phase 1 adult symptomatic patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) carrying a superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutation thought to be causative of ALS, will receive single ascending doses of ARO-SOD1 administered by intrathecal (IT) infusion. The study is primarily intended to evaluate safety, but will also evaluate the effect of ARO-SOD1 on SOD1 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels as a biomarker of pharmacodynamic (PD) effect, therefore lumbar punctures will be required at timepoints throughout the study. After each participant has completed their individual final visit, participants whose SOD1 CSF levels have recovered to a satisfactory level may rescreen and enroll into higher dose cohorts; or if unable or unwilling to rescreen may enroll into an open-label study to be added by amendment when supported by nonclinical data for multidose administration.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the accessibility of beauty products for individuals with upper extremity disabilities. By examining various factors such as packaging design, product applicators, and ease of use, this research aims to identify barriers faced by individuals with upper extremity disabilities or visual deficits when using beauty products. The study seeks to provide insights and recommendations for improving the accessibility of beauty products, ultimately promoting inclusivity and enhancing the overall beauty experience for individuals with disabilities.
RNALS is a multicentre, transversal, diagnostic and non-interventional study carried out in ALS reference centers; in order to identify a diagnostic signature for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis by analyzing of coding and non-coding RNA contained in patients saliva. The study population consists of patients with definite or probable amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) according to the El Escorial criteria ("ALS Subjects" group) and subjects with no neurological history (Control group). The control group will be made up of caregivers of patients with ALS, and caregivers of patients with a pathology other than ALS. The ALS patients concerned by the study already benefit from routine medical care in ALS expert centers in France. The patients concerned by the study will be managed without modification of the care pathway, nor modification of the therapeutic indications, nor modification of the diagnostic or follow-up examinations necessary according to the context, which are carried out according to the recommendations of the HAS, CNGOF.
This is a randomized double-blind controlled exploratory clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FB1006 in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of RAG-17 in adult amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with SOD1 mutation. Patients will receive drug treamtent via dose escalation which ranging from minimum of 60 mg to the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), after reaching the tolerated dose, a fixed dose of the drug is given once every two months for continuous treatment, and the total treatment cycle is 8 months. The duration of this study is two years.
This study takes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients as the main research object. Through collecting genetics, imaging and clinical symptoms for Exploratory research, we will construct the gene spectrum of ALS in China, explore unknown pathogenic genes, explore the characteristic image characteristics of ALS, and establish the iPSCs library of ALS, providing resources and basis for the research of pathogenesis and treatment targets of ALS.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of MaaT033 in ALS patients and to analyze the gut microbiota composition and evolution before considering a larger randomized controlled efficacy study.
The first-in-human Phase 1 study described herein will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SPG302 in healthy volunteers and ALS participants
This clinical trial is a phase 1 study in which investigations with the weakly radioactive substance [18F]-RoSMA-18-d6 are being carried out for the first time. This radiolabeled substance will be used to study a specific protein in the brain and spinal cord of patients with ALS and healthy individuals. This particular protein, the cannabinoid type 2 receptor, is thought to play a role in the disease process of ALS. Furthermore, it is assumed that this protein is found more frequently in the brain and spinal cord of patients with ALS compared to healthy individuals. The following questions will be answered by this clinical trial. 1. Is this protein found, as suspected, increased in the brain and spinal cord of ALS patients compared to healthy individuals ? 2. Does the amount of this protein change during the course of the disease? 3. Are there any correlations between the observed changes in the amount of protein and the assessment of the course of the disease?
