Community Outreach for Palliative Engagement -- Parkinson Disease
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effectiveness of palliative care training for community physicians and telemedicine support services for patients and carepartners with Parkinson's disease and Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) or related conditions and their care partners. Palliative care is a treatment approach focused on …
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 …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
The objective of this proposal is to investigate the effect of non-invasive repetitive cerebellar transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor control in progressive supranuclear (PSP). The central hypothesis is that augmenting cerebellar inhibition via cerebellar rTMS will decrease postural instability in patients with PSP. We will use functional near infrared …
A Molecular Anatomic Imaging Analysis of Tau in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
This study is designed to learn more about overall tau burden in the brain of patients with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).
First-in-Human Study for the Safety and Evaluation of Two 4R Tau Ligands as Potential PET Radioligands for Imaging Tau Protein in the Brain
This clinical study is being conducted to learn more about two new imaging drugs, called \[18F\]ABBV-964i and \[18F\]ABBV-965i, which are designed to help doctors see changes in the brain related to a condition called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). PSP is a rare disease that affects movement, balance, and thinking. These …
tDCS as Treatment for Motor Function
Previous preliminary results are sufficiently impressive to suggest that tDCS stimulation does have the potential to improve motor function when that ability is trained during stimulation. In the proposed study, the investigation will assess whether walking sessions combined with tDCS lead to improvements in motor function: gait, articulation, eye gaze, …
The Public Safety Personnel (PSP) Sleep Course: An Online Sleep Intervention for PSP.
This study evaluates an internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (ICBTi) intervention, known as the Sleep Course, adapted for public safety personnel (PSP) experiencing sleep difficulties. The study seeks to replicate prior results from an Australian version of the Sleep Course assessing its effectiveness and acceptability when offered to PSP.
The NADAPT Study: a Randomized Double-blind Trial of NAD Replenishment Therapy for Atypical Parkinsonism
Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), Multiple system atrophy (MSA) and corticobasal syndrome (CBS) are severe neurodegenerative diseases with rapid progression and no effective treatment. Patients quickly succumb to increasing motor and non-motor symptoms and survival ranges from ~3 years to ~10 years. Although PSP, MSA and CBS are rare diseases they …
The Use of the CUE1/CUE1+ in People With Parkinson's Disease and Related Disorders
People with Parkinson's disease (PD) commonly experience a range of both motor (e.g., bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, and postural instability) and non-motor (e.g., fatigue, psychiatric and behavioural disturbances, autonomic dysfunction, cognitive impairment, sleep dysfunction and olfactory loss) features. Currently, it is challenging to alleviate these symptoms with first-line treatment, the medications …
Gait Analysis Parameter and Upper Limb Evaluation in Adult Patients With Neurological or Metabolic Pathology
The ActiLiège-Adult study is a prospective, longitudinal, observational study designed to collect natural history data on adult patients with neurological or metabolic diseases affecting movement. Conducted at the Centre de Référence Liégeois des Maladies Neuromusculaires in Liège, Belgium, the study will enroll 300 ambulant patients, including individuals with neuromuscular disorders …
