Assessment of a Portable Digital Device for Quantified Analysis of Markerless Walking in Volunteers With Neuromuscular Diseases or Asymptomatic Volunteers
In recent years, knowledge of neuromuscular diseases has advanced considerably, and new therapeutic avenues are beginning to emerge. The proliferation of clinical trials has created a need to identify biomarkers that are both sensitive to changes and specific to the disease. Current gait tests only consider the time factor and …
Imaging Biomarkers in ALS
The purpose of the study is to determine if we are able to find one or more biomarkers of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans at different levels, 3 tesla (3T) and 7 tesla (7T). A biomarker is a measurable characteristic …
Retention and Re-Engagement in Treatment for Addiction Following Serious Injection Related Infections (RETAIN)
This project is a pilot study of an adapted intervention of an existing Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment retention intervention called Recovery Management Checkups (RMC). This intervention has been adapted to better fit the experiences and unique issues of those that have been hospitalized with serious injection related infections (SIRI) …
Study of Olutasidenib and Temozolomide in HGG
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drug olutasidenib to treat newly diagnosed pediatric and young adult patients with a high-grade glioma (HGG) harboring an IDH1 mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of olutasidenib and temozolomide (TMZ) …
Cell Signaling, Reinnervation and Metabolism in Kennedy Disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder, usually leading to death from respiratory failure in 3-5 years. Riluzole, the only drug currently available, only modestly prolongs survival and does not improve muscle strength or function. In ALS, loss of functional motor neurons is initially compensated for by …
Pilot Study of ZetaFuse™ Bone Graft for the Treatment of Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to test the safety and preliminary performance of the ZetaFuse Bone Graft in patient requiring fusion of the C3-C7 vertebral bones due to pain or loss of neurological function. Participants will be treated with ZetaFuse during surgical intervention to reduce pain and …
[18F]ACI-19626 PET in TDP-43 Proteinopathies
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether we can reliably and safely measure the accumulation of pathological protein TDP-43 [involved in rare forms of dementia such as frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)] using a new positron emission tomography (PET) tracer called [18F]ACI-19626. Both …
Safety, PK and Biodistribution of 18F-OP-801 in Patients With ALS, AD, MS, PD and Healthy Volunteers
This is a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 18F-OP-801 in subjects with ALS, AD, MS, PD and age-matched HVs. 18F-OP-801 is intended as a biomarker for PET imaging of activated microglia and macrophages in regions of neuroinflammation.
Mechanical Insufflation in the Philadelphia Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Cohort (MI-PALS) Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how doing mechanical insufflation (MI) using a mechanical insufflator-exsufflator (MI-E) device affects breathing in early amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This will be a single-center, single-arm study of MI in 20 patients with ALS at Penn. Based on prior research, we believe …
A Phase 1 Study of ADI-001 in Autoimmune Disease
ADI-202300103 is a phase 1 multicenter, open label, dose finding and dose expansion, safety/efficacy study in patients with autoimmune disease. The study will consist of different periods including screening, lymphodepletion, treatment, and follow-up
