Genetic Study of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in Norway
The purpose of this study is to explore the genetic causes relevant for ALS development in Norway.
ASSESS ALL ALS Study
The ALL ALS Clinical Research Consortium is establishing research to collect a wide range of samples, clinical information and measurements from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) symptomatic, ALS gene carriers and control cohorts. This consortium is being funded by the National Institutes of Health/National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NIH/NINDS) …
Novel MRI Biomarkers for Monitoring Disease Progression in ALS
Routine MRI is normal in motor neuron diseases such as ALS. However, advanced MRI techniques can provide an objective measure of degeneration (a "biomarker") by examining brain structure, wiring, chemistry, and function. We will develop and evaluate novel MRI techniques that could improve our understanding of ALS and provide a …
Study of Predictive Factors of Progression of Motor Neurone Disease
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a complex polymorph and devastating neurodegenerative disease. Although the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the development of ALS remain to be fully elucidated, there have been significant advances in the understanding of ALS pathogenesis, with evidence emerging of a complex interaction between genetic factors and dysfunction of …
Neurofilament Light Chain in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
This study assesses the performance of serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in a wide range of disease courses, in terms of ALS progression, disease duration, and tracheostomy invasive ventilation (TIV). The aim of the research project is to investigate the correlation between NfL serum concentration …
ALS Research Collaborative
The goal of this natural history study is to learn more about the biological and clinical aspects of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This study's findings will help with drug discovery, biomarker discovery, and outcome measure validation. Adults living with ALS, other motor neuron diseases (MND), a known mutation related to …
Clinical Procedures to Support Research in ALS
The purpose of the Clinical Procedures To Support Research (CAPTURE) study is to utilize information collected in the medical record to learn more about a disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and related disorders.
OSTEOMICS: Identifying Regulators of Bone Homeostasis
Diseases of bone associated with ageing, including osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA), reduce bone mass, bone strength and joint integrity. Current non-surgical approaches are limited to pharmaceutical agents that are not disease modifying and have poor patient tolerability due to side effect profiles. Developing a fundamental understanding of cellular bone …
The Myelin Disorders Biorepository Project
The Myelin Disorders Biorepository Project (MDBP) seeks to collect and analyze clinical data and biological samples from leukodystrophy patients worldwide to support ongoing and future research projects. The MDBP is one of the world's largest leukodystrophy biorepositories, having enrolled nearly 2,000 affected individuals since it was launched over a decade …
ARTFL LEFFTDS Longitudinal Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (ALLFTD)
ARTFL LEFFTDS Longitudinal Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (ALLFTD) represents the formalized integration of ARTFL (U54 NS092089; funded through 2019) and LEFFTDS (U01 AG045390; funded through 2019) as a single North American research consortium to study FTLD for 2019 and beyond.
