Filter by:A study of the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NNZ-2591 and measures of efficacy in children and adolescents with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disease, with hyperappetite and severe obesity. At present, there is no effective drugs and interventions to help control the appetite of PWS patients. More and more evidence has shown that gut microbiota is closely related to obesity. Probiotics and prebiotics can improve the structure of gut microbiota, thus improve blood lipid levels and other biochemical indicators of obese people. Therefore, this study intends to explore the effectiveness and safety of probiotics and prebiotics in controlling appetite and weight gain of PWS children.
The overall purpose of this project is to establish the capability of screening for Angelman syndrome (AS) and Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) in public health newborn screening (NBS) programs, with an aim of developing and validating a screening test for AS and PWS.
The primary objective of the study is to compare, in a cohort of obese subjects with PWS hospitalized at the Division of Auxology, Istituto Auxologico Italiano, Piancavallo (VB), Italy, the age acceleration calculated at study entry (T0) with the age acceleration measured at the end of a 3-week multidisciplinary metabolic rehabilitation program (T1). Secondary objectives are to correlate the biological age with the anthropometric characteristics (with particular reference to the body composition), the glycometabolic picture, the main parameters and cardiovascular risk factors, the therapy (previous and concomitant) with rhGH and the cognitive function (mainly, the IQ).
The lack of serum markers that can be used to identify the levels of steatosis in obese subjects, or that can indicate a rapid progression of the metabolic disease, in which it is very often difficult to perform analyzes with imaging techniques, limits the current evolution from a generalized medicine to a personalized medicine. With the project proposal the aim is to identify serum markers for the characterization of steatosis in subjects affected by genetic obesity, which will most likely also be used in metabolic obesity.
The purpose of this is study is to evaluate the long-term safety of DCCR (diazoxide choline) extended-release tablets) in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome.
This is a placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether Guanfacine Extended Release (GXR) reduces aggression and self injurious behavior in individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). In addition, the study will establish the safety of GXR with a specific focus on metabolic effects.
This study aims to use a high-fiber supplementation, an intervention known to create shifts in the gut microbiota towards a healthier structure, to explore the relationship between gut microbiota, appetite control and feeding behavior in PWS patients.
The purpose of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of a single dose of CSTI-500 10 mg in subjects with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) between 13 and 50 years of age with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of PWS.
This is a Phase 3 open-label extension (OLE) study in patients diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) who completed the Maintenance Period of the randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 study SCOUT-015. The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of RAD011.
