Filter by:AOC 1001-CS1 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple-doses of AOC 1001 Administered Intravenously to Adult Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) patients (MARINA). Part A is a single dose design with 1 cohort (dose level). In Part A, the patient duration is 6 months as the treatment period is 1 day followed by a 6 month follow-up period. Part B is a multiple-ascending dose design with 2 cohorts (dose levels). In Part B, the patient duration is 6 months as the treatment period is 3 months followed by a 3 month follow-up period.
The primary aim is to characterize the prevalence, severity and quality of musculoskeletal nociceptive pain in adult patients with neuromuscular disorders (NMD). The secondary objectives are to evaluate whether severity and distribution of muscle pain is associated with muscle function, and to assess whether muscle pain is associated with alterations of muscle elasticity and muscle stiffness. Results of patients with neuromuscular disorders will be compared to age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers. Approx. 70 patients with neuromuscular disorders and 20 healthy volunteers will be enrolled, including patients with the following neuromuscular disorders: histologically confirmed inclusion body myositis (IBM), genetically confirmed late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD), genetically confirmed spinal muscular atrophy type 3 (SMA3), genetically confirmed facio-scapulo-humeral muscle dystrophy (FSHD), genetically confirmed myotonic dystrophy type 1 or type 2 (DM1, DM2). The duration of patient recruitment will be around 12 months.
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is one of the most common neuromuscular diseases in adults. As respiratory dysfunction is the most common cause of death in patients with DM1, a respiratory disease progression must be monitored combining symptom screening and respiratory function testing, in order to identify the appropriate time to initiate non invasive ventilation (NIV). Dyspnea, one of the main respiratory symptoms, has been little studied in patients with DM1. The main objective of this study is to provide the first multidimensional description of dyspnea in patients with DM1. The secondary objectives are: - To compare respiratory symptoms according to the presence or not of criteria from respiratory function testing to initiate NIV - To assess associations between dyspnea and respiratory function testing - To assess associations between dyspnea and number of Cytosine Thymine Guanine (CTG) repeats - To assess associations between dyspnea and muscular strength - To assess associations between dyspnea and BMI - To assess associations between dyspnea and anxiety or depression - To assess associations between dyspnea and cognitive impairment - To assess associations between dyspnea and quality of life.
Participants in this study will receive two treatments, placebo and ERX-963, on different days in a randomized fashion. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of ERX-963 in participants diagnosed with Myotonic Dystrophy, Type 1 (DM1). The secondary purpose is to evaluate the potential of ERX-963 treatment to reduce excessive daytime sleepiness / hypersomnia and improve cognitive function in DM1 participants compared to placebo treatment.
This project aims to characterize DM1 patients, by collecting clinical, neuropsychological, neuroimaging, and molecular rehabilitative data, in order to elucidate the etiology of cognitive troubles, with special attention to the impact of those dysfunctions on quality of life.
