Filter by:The objective of this study is to describe disease progression in study participants diagnosed with early Parkinson's Disease or Multiple System Atrophy - Parkinsonian Type up to 18 months as delineated by clinical and biochemical parameters.
Purpose of this phase 1/2a study is to assess the safety and efficacy of intrathecal administration of allogeneic human oral mucosa stem cells (hOMSCs) in patients suffering from early to moderate stage Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) .
This is a Phase 3, multi-center, randomized withdrawal study to evaluate the efficacy and durability of ampreloxetine in participants with MSA and symptomatic nOH after 20 weeks of treatment. This study includes 4 periods: Screening, open label, randomized withdrawal, and long-term treatment extension (LTE).
This trial will the efficacy of KM-819 compared to placebo in subjects with MSA for slowing the progression of MSA.
The study is a multi-center, observational study to evaluate the feasibility of α-synuclein-related biomarkers and imaging data in the disease diagnosis and prognosis evaluation in Synucleinopathies and healthy subjects.
Study Rationale: No accurate tests currently exist to diagnose Parkinson's disease (PD) and the conditions which mimic it (atypical parkinsonism) at a very early stage. Similarly there are no accurate ways to track how these diseases progress in a very precise manner. Recording eye movements and pupils may be a very sensitive way of doing this and may contain important information about a patient's diagnosis and their cognitive and motor function. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that measuring eye movements and pupil changes while people watch short video clips will differentiate PD and atypical parkinsonism at an early stage. We hypothesize that eye movements and pupil changes will be able to track how a person's disease changes over time and could even predict their disease course from the start. Before we can do this, we need to be able to accurately differentiate between PD and atypical parkinsonism and see how eye movements vary among people with the same disease. Study Design: We will ask a large number of people with PD and atypical parkinsonism to watch very brief video clips while we record eye movements and pupil responses. This is like changing the television channel every few seconds and observing what happens to a person's eyes as they search the new clip. We will compare these results between different disease groups and correlate them with clinical features of PD and atypical parkinsonism. Impact on Diagnosis/Treatment of Parkinson's disease: This may have enormous impact in the assessment of people with PD. It may become an important diagnostic tool, a prognostic marker at the early stage of disease, as well as providing the ability to track disease progression in clinical trials. Next Steps for Development: Once we can demonstrate that eye tracking can differentiate these conditions, we will follow a large number of patients to see how their eye movements and pupils change over time with their disease. If this is a reliable way to track disease it could be used to measure disease progression in these conditions and response to treatment.
This is a Phase 1b study to determine the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of UB-312 in participants with multiple system atrophy (MSA), and in participants with Parkinson's disease (PD). UB-312 is a UBITh®-enhanced synthetic peptide-based vaccine and may provide an active immunotherapy option for treating synucleinopathies including the most prevalent form, PD; and the most rapidly progressive form, MSA.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects on motor and cognitive performance of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) compared to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and placebo stimulation (sham) in patients with neurodegenerative ataxia to identify a possible rehabilitation protocol.
This is a longitudinal, triple-blind, randomized-controlled, prospective observational study assessing patients with cerebellar ataxia, including spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) and multiple system atrophy-cerebellar type (MSA-C), to examine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) for up to 3 months.
The main aim is to see how TAK-341 works after 52 weeks in participants with multiple system atrophy as measured by the Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale Part I (UMSARS). The study will enroll approximately 138 patients. Participants will receive a total of 13 intravenous infusions every 4 weeks approximately, these may be either of TAK-341 or placebo, after each infusion some blood samplings will be taken and other assessments completed. This trial will be conducted in North America, Europe and Asia.
