The Swedish BioFINDER 2 Study
The Swedish BioFINDER 2 study is a new study that will launch in 2017 and extends the previous cohorts of BioFINDER 1 study (www.biofinder.se). BioFINDER 1 is used e.g. to characterize the role of beta-amyloid pathology in early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) using amyloid-PET (18F-Flutemetamol) and Aβ analysis in …
Tissue Repository Providing Annotated Biospecimens for Approved Investigator-directed Biomedical Research Initiatives
To collect, preserve, and/or distribute annotated biospecimens and associated medical data to institutionally approved, investigator-directed biomedical research to discover and develop new treatments, diagnostics, and preventative methods for specific and complex conditions.
Tongue-strengthening Exercises in People With ALS.
This study is testing a tongue exercise program for people living with ALS to see if it can help support speech and swallowing. All participants will receive the treatment, and researchers will measure changes over time by comparing each person's results to their own earlier results. People who join the …
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.
Multicenter ALS Imaging Study
This is a multi-site study of ALS participants and healthy controls who will undergo brain and cervical spine MRIs and NfL blood testing at up-to 4 time points over the course of a year. The primary goal is to identify objective biomarkers of disease progression that are biologically relevant, linearly …
Evaluation of a Structurally Suitable Neck Exoskeleton in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
The investigators will evaluate a new powered neck exoskeleton in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to understand whether this device allows adequate head range of motion and achieves satisfaction from users. In this small cross-sectional device feasibility study, participants will be enrolled from the ALS clinic at the University …
Controlling Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Motor Neuron Excitability Study
Following completion of the ALS Early Feasibility Study of the MyoRegulator® device for treatment of ALS (NCT06165172), the CALM study will further assess the feasibility of the MyoRegulator® device to treat ALS in an expanded number of individuals with ALS. CALM will gather additional preliminary evidence of clinical safety and …
Diagnostic Accuracy of SleepImage Technology for Detecting Respiratory Failure in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
The specific aim of this study is to try to discover the diagnostic accuracy of SleepImage technology for detecting respiratory failure in patients with MND. Importantly, this research project is not about NIV, it is about what method can most efficiently decide when to start NIV. To do this we'd …
A Study to Evaluate the Tolerability, Safety and Efficacy of VGN-R13 in Patients with ALS
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate safety and efficacy of intrathecal delivery of VGN-R13 as a treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
Quantitative and Repetitive TMS in ALS - Recruiting for Stage 2
Stage 1 \[Enrolment closed\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of accelerated, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) using continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) in patients with ALS. Stage 2 \[CURRENTLY ENROLLING\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate …
