Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) and Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of IVIg administration in conjunction with primary motor cortex BBB opening using the Next Generation Dome Helmet (NGDH) FUS in adult participants with ALS.
A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacodynamics of PLL001 in ALS Patients
FIH, Phase 1/2, multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled study with an optional open-label dosing extension to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and Pharmacodynamics (PD) of single or multiple (up to 48 weeks QD) subcutaneous (SC) doses of PLL001 compared to placebo in subjects diagnosed with ALS.
A Mindful Community for People With ALS and Their Primary Caregivers
The psychological impact of ALS on patients and caregivers is high, significantly affecting their quality of life (QOL). Despite this impact, there is not much research about psychological interventions that could reduce psychological distress and improve QOL. The efficacy of mindfulness-based treatments for the improvement of QOL was previously demonstrated …
Plasmapheresis in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis With Autoantibody Against NRIP
Patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) having anti-NRIP autoantibody showed titer-dependent detrimental Effects. Plasmapheresis might benefit this subgroup of patients via removal of anti-NRIP autoantibody
Structural and Functional Networks in ALS: An Insight Into Pseudobulbar Affect
The investigators aim to elucidate characteristics of structural and functional brain connectivity in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and pseudobulbar affect (PBA) using diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG).
Evaluation of the Reproducibility of a Fatigability Test Fitted to Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease caused by the degeneration of motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, due to the absence of the SMN1 gene and the resulting lack of SMN protein. Some patients with particularly severe forms (types 0 or 1) …
Virtual Peer-to-peer Support Programme for Carers of MND
Background/scope There is growing recognition that family caregiving is a serious public health issue requiring supportive interventions. Family caregivers play an essential role in sustaining a stable environment enabling individuals with motor neurone disease (MND) that are technology dependent to live at home. The family caregivers can experi¬ence exceptional burden …
Acamprosate in C9orf72 Hexanucleotide Repeat Expansion Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ACALS)
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disorder that damages nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. It can cause muscle weakness, paralysis, and loss of movement. The symptoms grow worse over time. Half of all people with ALS live only 3 to 5 years after diagnosis. Current drug …
A Phase 1, SAD and MAD Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of FB418
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oral doses of FB418 in healthy adult subjects and healthy elderly subjects.
The Study Evaluating the Improvement of Nutritional Status and Frailty With Silkworm Pupa Powder Among Patients With Motor Neuron Disease
Motor Neuron Disease (MND) is the result of dysfunction of the upper motor neurons in the precentral gyrus of the frontal lobe or the lower motor neurons in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common, disabling, and fatal motor neuron disease in …
