LEvetiracetam to Prevent Seizures in Symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease in Adults With Down Syndrome
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether levetiracetam can prevent epileptic seizures in patients with Alzheimer's disease associated with Down syndrome. It will also analyze whether it can delay the neurodegeneration associated with this disease. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will …
Stimulation-Induced Changes in Fronto-Limbic Network
The purpose of this research is to better understand how emotion processing unfolds in the brain using stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) and direct brain stimulation. This study will use standard behavioral emotion processing tasks combined with neural recording and direct brain stimulation to assess different aspects of emotion processing. Stimulation pulses during …
Substance P-Induced Migraine Attacks Without Aura
Substance P is a neuropeptide implicated in the pathogenesis of headache. This study investigates whether its administration can trigger migraine attacks in individuals with migraine without aura.
VNS Prospective Neuromodulation of Autonomic, Immune and Gastrointestinal Systems
Vagal nerve stimulation is a neurosurgical procedure consisting of implantation of an impulse generator battery with leads placed into the vagus nerve in the neck. This procedure was FDA approved for epilepsy in the 1990s and is commonly performed as an outpatient surgery. The mechanism of efficacy is not well …
NEUROGENETIC AND HEMODYNAMIC OF MIGRAINE AURA AND PFO
The PFOCUS study aims to clarify the relationship between patent foramen ovale (PFO) and migraine with aura (MA). Patients diagnosed with MA according to ICHD-3 criteria will be classified as cases (PFO+) or controls (PFO-) based on the presence or absence of a right-to-left shunt on transcranial Doppler or prior …
Induction of Migraine Attacks With Aura Using Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a key neuropeptide in migraine pathophysiology and treatment. This study investigates whether CGRP administration can trigger aura in individuals with a diagnosis of migraine with aura.
Epilepsy Journey-An Executive Functioning Intervention for Teens With Epilepsy
The goal of this multi-site clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of two components of a web-based intervention (Epilepsy Journey) to improve executive functioning in adolescents with epilepsy. The two components include web-based modules and problem-solving telehealth sessions with a therapist focused on executive functioning. This trial aims to …
Adjuvant Abemaciclib for Locoregional Recurrence of HR-positive, HER2-negative Breast Cancer (JCOG2313, AURA)
The JCOG2313 trial is a multicenter, randomized, phase III study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant abemaciclib in combination with endocrine therapy versus endocrine therapy alone in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who have undergone curative treatment for their first locoregional recurrence (LRR). Although …
Acid-Sensing Ion Channel and Migraine Disease Proof of Concept Study on the Efficacy of Amiloride in the Prophylaxis of Migraine Aura
Recent data suggest involvement of Acid-Sensing Ion Channel channels in the pathophysiology of migraine making these channels a therapeutic target of migraine disease. The implication of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels is discussed through Acid-Sensing Ion Channel-1 which is the most expressed Acid-Sensing Ion Channel channel subtype in the central nervous system. …
Social Cognition in Pediatric Epilepsy
The purpose of this study is to investigate the development of social cognition skills in pediatric epilepsy compared to healthy children. There are evidences indicating that children with epilepsy have executive dysfunctions and language problems. Executive functions refer to multiple cognitive processes that contribute to human higher order abilities, such …
