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
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) …
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).
Active NBS Study: Decentralised Monitoring Motor Development in Children With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy or Spinal Muscular Atrophy Identified by Newborn Screening
The Active NBS Liege study is a monocentric, academic, fully remote, observational study designed to validate digital measures of motor development in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) or Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) identified through newborn screening, family testing, or incidental diagnosis. The study will enroll 100 children and follow …
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 …
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 …
Oral Intake of Enteral Nutrition Formula Preceding Placement and Feeding Via GTube and Its Impact on Formula Intolerance in PALS
The main objective of the proposed study is to evaluate if oral intake of EN formula preceding Gtube placement will impact tolerance upon placement and feeding via Gtube in pALS. This single arm intervention study all participants will receive the intervention and researchers will utilize validated indicators combined with clinical …
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.
High-Tech Rehabilitation Pathway for Chronic Adult Neuromuscular Diseases - Fit4MedRob-Chronic MND Project
The primary objective is to demonstrate, in a population of chronic neuromuscular disease the non-inferiority of a rehabilitation treatment integrated with robotic and/or technological devices compared to traditional rehabilitation treatment in the level of fatigue. The main question it aims to answer is: Are high-tech rehabilitation interventions, including robotic systems, …
Translating Single-cell Vulnerability Into Novel ALS Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets: Towards a Liquid Nerve Biopsy
The progress of ALS research and clinical practice is hampered by lack of effective biomarkers to monitor disease onset and progression. In response to this urgent need, we will integrate single-cell system biology approaches, histopathological and clinical data from precious human nerve biopsies collected from living ALS patients during the …
