Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurogenetic disorder caused by a loss or mutation in the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) on chromosome 5q13, which leads to reduced SMN protein levels and a selective dysfunction of motor neurons. SMA is an autosomal recessive, early childhood disease with an incidence …
Adult SMA REACH is a data collection study aiming to gain a better understanding of the impact of standards of care and new treatments on the natural history of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). This study is sponsored by The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Adult SMA REACH is …
The goal of this observational study is to set up a longitudinal data collection study to perform a long-term follow-up of SMA patients in a real-world setting, and to standardise and homogenize the data collection process for SMA patient's data. Treated and untreated patients will be followed based on the …
The goal of this observational study is to explore the clinical and genetic characteristics, multi-omics profiles, disease mechanisms, biomarkers, and potential therapeutic targets of hereditary ataxia (HA) in patients diagnosed with HA, primarily in the Yangtze River Delta region of China. The main questions it aims to answer are: What …
The primary objective of the clinical investigation is to demonstrate successful clinical use of the ThecaFlex DRx™ System in delivering nusinersen in subjects with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). All enrolled subjects will undergo implantation of the investigational device (ThecaFlex DRx™ System) and will be followed for 12 months after receiving …
This double-blind, Phase 2, multiple-dose study will be conducted to evaluate the PK/PD, efficacy, safety, and tolerability of apitegromab in subjects \<2 years old with 5q autosomal recessive SMA who have delayed motor milestones for their age attributed to SMA at the discretion of the Investigator or a Children's Hospital …
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease. Studies have shown the importance of weight loss at the time of diagnosis and during the progression of the disease. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms behind weight loss remain unknown. Identifying these mechanisms could make it possible to propose an effective therapeutic strategy …
This study is researching an experimental drug called ALN-SOD (called "study drug"). This study is focused on people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) caused by a change in a gene called the Superoxide Dismutase-1 (SOD1) gene. This type of ALS is known as "SOD1-ALS". This is the first time that …
A multi-center registration study of clinical characteristics of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).
Describe the distribution of ALS in mainland China, to explore the differences in the number of ALS in different times, regions and populations in order to further explore the causes affecting the distribution of ALS; To investigate the cause of ALS in mainland China in the crowd disease development process …
