Filter by:The study tests the effect of the ATNC MDD-V1 on Alzheimer patients' cognitive function. The ATNC MDD-V1 uses non-invasive stimulation of both magnetic and cognitive training.
The aim of the NODAL clinical trial is to demonstrate the feasibility of new, low-cost, non-invasive biomarkers of neurodegenerative pathologies as early Alzheimer and Parkinson, based on the estimation of the multimodal connectome.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation between the fat infiltration of the lumbar multifidus muscle and several parameters including the severity of the lumbar foraminal stenosis. The investigators will analyse lumbar MRI of patients previously included in a database of patients suffering from low back pain. Foraminal stenosis, muscle fat infiltration and other imaging lumbar parameters will be studied by 2D and 3D manuel segmentation, semi-automatic segmentation. Correlations between factors influencing the muscle fat infiltration will be studied by univariate and multivariate statistical analysis.
1. Explore the effects of natural plant flavonoids on the positive intervention mechanism of neurotransmitter transmission physiological indicators changes (EEG) in the brain of the study subjects; 2. Investigate the effects of natural plant flavonoids in positively intervening clinical symptoms of the study subjects.

The Inserm NeuroPresage team has been using MRI for more than 20 years in the study of normal ageing and memory pathologies to further the understanding and the characterization of early diagnosis and the cerebral substrates of cognitive deficits in patients, particularly in the context of neurodegenerative diseases. Two years ago, a new 3T MRI camera was installed at the Cyceron centre. It is more efficient and should make it possible to obtain better quality images and/or to reduce the time required to acquire these images. In this context, it seems important to test the different sequences that we classically use in our studies, or that we plan to implement in our next studies (learning and text retrieval fMRI task), in order to optimize them, with a view to integrating them in our future studies.
The goal of this First-In-Human (FIH) trial is to learn about safety and PharmacoKinetics (PK) in healthy adult volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the safety of single ascending doses of the FluoroEthylNorMemantine (FENM)? - What is the PK profile of single ascending doses of the FENM in human? - What is the preliminary exploratory time course of Brain Disease Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) plasmatic levels of single ascending doses of the FENM? Participants will receive one single oral dose of FENM.
P-glycoprotein, an efflux transporter at the blood-brain barrier plays an important role in de development of neurodegenerative disease. A novel PET tracer ([18F]MC225) was developed to measure the function of P-glycoprotein and was tested with succes in healthy volunteers. This study aims to evaluate [18F]MC225 in neurodegenerative disease.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an altered brain function caused by an external force, which may annually have 69 million incidence cases all over the world. Increasing evidence suggests that TBI may be a major risk of beta amyloid (Aβ)-associated neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, and Parkinson's disease. Investigations from brain imaging studies revealed that Aβ density maps of TBI patients overlapped with those with Alzheimer's disease, and increased Aβ density not only associated with prolonged TBI duration but also associated with decreased white matter integrity. It has been suggested that the axonal injury and cerebrovascular dysfunction due to TBI may associate with the elevated level of Aβ peptides. The increasing accumulation in Aβ due to TBI may contribute to the initiation of the pathological alterations in neurodegeneration diseases. Recent animal studies suggest that acupuncture may promote regeneration of nerves in injured tissues and reduce the concentration of Aβ in brain. Moreover, recent clinical trials also indicate that acupuncture may improve the vascular cognitive impairment due to cerebral small vessel disease. Thus, acupuncture treatment on TBI may not only be of benefit for the TBI recovery but also act to interrupt the pathological changes in these neurodegenerative diseases.
SNP318 is developed to treat neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease. In the current phase 1 study, the IP is tested in healthy volunteers, and the purpose is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and PK of single and multiple ascending oral doses of SNP318.
