Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of propionic acid over placebo as add on treatment in multiple sclerosis (MS).
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease associated with physical disability, psychological impairment, and cognitive dysfunction. As a result, the disease burden is high, and treatment options are limited. In this randomized, double-blind study, the investigators planned to use repeated electrical stimulation and assess mental health-related variables (e.g., quality of life, sleep, psychological distress) and cognitive dysfunction in patients with MS.
A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy for Subjects with Systemic Sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of ozanimod in Chinese adults with relapsing multiple sclerosis.
This was a multicenter, non-interventional, retrospective study aiming to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of siponimod treatment in Chinese patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS). The data were collected retrospectively through medical records review and abstraction conducted at a single time point per patient by the investigator's site staff or a designate (at the discretion of the site, if allowed by local regulations). There was no prospective patient follow-up for this study. Obtaining informed consent was based on local regulations. Where permissible, waivers could be applied to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) as appropriate, based on the retrospective collection of non-personally identifiable data, if acceptable per local regulations. The target patient population included adult patients diagnosed with RMS (including clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), or active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS)), and who received at least 3-months of treatment with siponimod after the index date. The index date is the date of siponimod initiation, defined as the date of first prescription record of siponimod in the patient's medical records with RMS diagnosis. Effectiveness data (i.e., clinical relapses, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) activity) were collected from the index date, through the end of the observation period. The observation period was from the index date to the date of initiation of medical records abstraction at site, or patient withdrawal of consent, loss of follow-up, or death, whichever occurred first. Among patients who permanently discontinued siponimod during the observation period, safety data were collected up to 30 days after the last dose of siponimod.
Radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS) often precedes Multiple Sclerosis (MS) but some patients have no symptoms. This study aims to use biological samples and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from four large cohorts of patients with MS in the United States, Europe and France, to stratify the chances of RIS developing into MS. Identifying early biomarkers to predict greater disease severity would have a significant impact, not only on RIS but also on the entire clinical spectrum of multiple sclerosis.
The investigators are doing this study to see if a treatment called dry needling improves muscle spasticity (muscle tightness) in people who have Multiple Sclerosis. Dry needling involves using tiny needles, like those in acupuncture, to target some muscles, like calf muscles. It differs from traditional acupuncture as it focuses on treating or managing muscle spots, aiming to reduce muscle stiffness and pain. Dry needling may offer a minimally-invasive and medication-free approach to improve muscle spasticity. The investigators hope to see if dry needling also helps enhance balance and walking abilities. This might provide potential improvements inoverall mobility and balance.
This research project entails delivery of a personalized antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) drug designed for a single participant with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) due to a pathogenic variant in CHCHD10
Study RAD-GRIN-201 is a phase 1B/2A trial to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and potential efficacy of radiprodil in participants with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) or Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD) type II. The study is open-label, so all participants will be treated with radiprodil. Subjects' participation in the study is expected to last up to six months in Part A and one year in Part B/long-term treatment period. The treatment period in Part B may be extended based on a favorable benefit/risk profile.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is one of the most lethal neurodegenerative diseases, with most patients dying from respiratory failure 3-5 years after the onset. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of nerve growth factor (NGF) encapsulated with 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) nanocapsules in the treatment of ALS patients.
