Filter by:Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of Risdiplam in adult and pediatric participants with Type 2 and Type 3 SMA. The study consists of two parts, an exploratory dose finding part (Part 1) of Risdiplam for 12 weeks and a confirmatory part (Part 2) of Risdiplam for 24 months.
This proposal will focus on (1) estimating oxidative capacity of specific muscle groups during exercise using near infrared spectroscopy and (2) describing body composition to better understand exercise capacity and mitochondrial function in ambulatory spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) patients and disease controls. It is a 6-month observational study including 14 ambulatory SMA patients, 14 ambulatory patients with mitochondrial myopathy, and 14 healthy controls.
Several factors make the use of celecoxib in human SMA patients appealing including: 1) low-dosing required for potential therapeutic effect (the corresponding dose in humans is much lower than that commonly used in adults and children with; 2) favourable side effect profile of this drug (particularly at the dosing required); 3) the fact that celecoxib crosses the blood brain barrier and 4) demonstration of efficacy in a genetically and pathophysiologically faithful animal mode. The investigators therefore believe that celecoxib is a promising disease modifying therapy for SMA.
To provide access to nusinersen to eligible patients with Infantile-onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) (consistent with Type 1) to address a high-unmet medical need.
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive disease of motor neurons. In the early 1980s, Werdnig from Vienna University and Hoffman from Heidelberg University described this disorder. So SMA type 1 was named Werdnig- Hoffman disease. This is the first genetic disorder that cause death after cystic fibrosis in infants with the prevalence of 1 in 6000 birth. Mutation in the SMN1 gene (Survival Motor Neuron) is the reason for the disease that cause decrease in the SMN protein production. So the alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord ventricle horn will be destroyed and it cause progressive paralysis and defenite death.No specific therapy is yet available for the treatment of Werdnig-Hoffmann disease. Treatment is not disease-modifying and just is supportive. SMA type 1 is diagnosed within the early 6 month after birth and accompanied with breath disorders and definite death in 2 years. The affected infants have a weak muscle tone and they couldn't even hold their head up. Perhaps the only open way for these patients is the application of stem cells that could deliver trophic factor to the apoptotic cells. So this study focuses on the effectivness of cell therapy via adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells on the probable phenotypic changes in these patients.
The purpose of this study is to learn about rates of patient-reported disease progression in patients with motor neuron diseases (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, progressive muscular atrophy, primary lateral sclerosis, hereditary spastic paraplegia) outside the clinical setting, and the patient-reported clinical characteristics that influence this rate of progression. All patients enrolled in CReATe Connect, a Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network (RDCRN) Contact Registry, will be invited via email to participate in this study.
SPOT SMA is a prospective NIH-supported clinical study targeting pre-symptomatic or recently diagnosed infants and children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) types 1, 2, or 3 and their healthy control siblings less than 36 months of age at the time of study enrollment. The main objective of the study is to prospectively collect longitudinal clinical outcomes and provide counseling and education to parents of newly diagnosed children. The study will assess the impact of current standard of care management paradigms and interventions on health outcomes in newly diagnosed SMA infants and children with type 1, 2 or 3 and age appropriate controls. There is no investigational drug and no specific intervention in this study. Rather, the investigators will document outcomes related to current therapies provided to participating subjects, and will educate participants about possible clinical trial opportunities.
This study will evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effect of CK-2127107 (hereafter referred to as reldesemtiv) versus placebo on measures of skeletal muscle function or fatigability in patients with Type II, III, or IV spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Risdiplam (RO7034067) in healthy people. The study will assess what the body does to Risdiplam (RO7034067) and what Risdiplam (RO7034067) does to the body. Risdiplam (RO7034067) will be given by mouth in gradually increasing doses. The data from this study will help to define the dose to further explore Risdiplam (RO7034067) in patients with Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
The purpose of this open-label, single arm study is to further evaluate long-term tolerability, safety and efficacy outcomes of olesoxime in participants with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) who previously participated in one of the following two clinical studies: TRO19622 CL E Q 1115-1 (open-label Phase Ib, multicenter, single- and multiple- dose study) or TRO19622 CL E Q 1275-1 (NCT01302600, Phase II/III, adaptive, parallel-group, double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational study).
