Filter by:This is a Phase 2, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of multiple doses of ONO-2808 in patients with MSA. This is the first study of ONO-2808 in patients with MSA.
The purpose of this study is to test the performance of the AID-P across 21 sites in the Parkinson Study Group. Each site will perform imaging, clinical scales, diagnosis, and will upload the data to the web-based software tool. The clinical diagnosis will be blinded to the diagnostic algorithm and the imaging diagnosis will be compared to the movement disorders trained neurologist diagnosis.
The goal of the Speech Accessibility Project at the University of Illinois Beckman Institute (https://speechaccessibilityproject.beckman.illinois.edu) is to collect, annotate, and curate a shared database of speech samples from people with atypical speech, and share this data set with researchers at other organizations. This two-year project plans to collect 1,200,000 speech samples from 2,000 people, each of whom will provide 600 samples. In Year 1, the initial focus will be people with Parkinson's. In Year 2, four more etiologies of interest will be recruited: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Cerebral Palsy (CP), Down Syndrome (DS), and Stroke. UIUC will build an open-source software infrastructure to collect annotated speech samples and share these data in an appropriately secure fashion with researchers from our partner technology companies (and eventually, other organizations as well) so that they can use these data to improve their automatic speech recognition algorithms. This project promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion by helping technology companies to fully support all types of speech, and it is also more efficient and less burdensome for these specialized patient populations to have one centralized "collector" of speech samples.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ATH434 in participants with a clinical diagnosis of Multiple System Atrophy
This study will enroll participants with idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and healthy controls for the purpose of preparing for a clinical trial of neuroprotective treatments against synucleinopathies.
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder that leads to major disability, forcing patients and caregivers to adapt their environment and lifestyle. Once they receive the diagnosis, patients and caregivers need to understand the symptoms, cope with them, to digest the diagnosis... All these needs are not completely addressed by the current model of care so we created a therapeutic educational program (TEP) program that will last 12 months, involving both patients and caregivers, including a mixed model of in-person visits and continuous on-line activities. Our project aims to target early MSA patients and their caregivers, proposing to test the feasibility (primary objective) of an innovative therapeutic educational program (TEP) for MSA patients.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a relentlessly progressing rare neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology. The differential diagnosis between the MSA-Parkinsonism (MSA-P) subtype and PD can be very challenging in early disease stages, while early diagnostic certitude is important for the patient because of the diverging prognosis. At the time being, there exists no validated objective biomarker to guide the clinician. Dysarthria is a common early symptom in both diseases and of different origin. The ambition and the originality of this project are to develop a digital voice-based tool for objective discrimination between PD and MSA-P.
This project aims to investigate whether an integrated model based on proactive and reactive telenursing monitoring coordinated by a parkinsonism nurse specialist (case manager) is able to improve care delivery and quality of life of patients with atypical parkinsonisms. This could reduce the risk (e.g. through health education counselling) and the severity of complications (e.g. falls). Main responsibilities of the Co-PI: project idea and supervision, coordination of the study, patient selection and recruitment, patient recruitment, participation in statistical analysis and drafting the manuscript. Co-PI is responsible of the rate of recruitment and drop-out
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the impact of the different types of pain and of the domains involved in the autonomic disorders of inpatients and outpatients diagnosed with Parkinson disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) admitted to Istituti Clinici Scientifici Maugeri Centers. The main aims are: Evaluate the prevalence of pain and characterize it in Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonisms (MSA) Evaluate the effect of rehabilitation on pain and autonomic symptoms Evaluate the prevalence of autonomic symptoms in Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonisms (MSA) Assess the impact of pain and autonomic symptoms on quality of life. Participants will perform neurological examination, rehabilitation program and clinical scales. Researchers will compare the two groups of patients (PD and MSA) and the effect of the rehabilitation on pain, autonomic symptoms and quality of life.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ATH434 in participants with a clinical diagnosis of Multiple System Atrophy
