Study of BDNF Pathway Biomarkers in the Cerebrospinal Fluid in Patients With Huntington's Disease
Huntington disease (HD, 1.3/10 000) is an autosomal dominant disease due to an abnormal expansion of CAG triplets in HTT gene. Several pathophysiological mechanisms have been evoked, including an alteration of the signaling pathway of the Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), a neurotrophic factor involved in the survival of neurons …
A Study to Evaluate ALN-HTT02 in Adult Patients With Huntington's Disease
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose of ALN-HTT02.
Innovative Imaging and Cognitive BIOmarkers to Predict Huntington's Disease Progression
Intro Huntington's disease (HD) patients suffer from motor, cognitive and behavioral impairments, with heterogeneous phenotypes and variable time course. This leads to a high variance of HD markers, none of which is currently sensitive enough to 1) measure disease progression from small cohort data, 2) predict disease entry in carriers …
Home-based Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Open Trial for Behavioral and Cognitive Symptoms in Huntington's Disease
The purpose of this study is to assess feasibility, acceptability, and safety of providing transcranial direct current stimulation( tDCS) to Huntingtons Disease (HD) patients in the early to middle stages and to assess the efficacy of tDCS for HD-related behavioral, cognitive and other symptoms
Study to Evaluate Music Therapy on Irritability and Impulsivity in Patients With Huntington's Disease (MUSIC-HD)
The study is an open-label clinical trial evaluating whether music therapy combined with conventional management reduces irritability and impulsivity in 15 patients with early-stage Huntington's disease. This pilot study aims to show the interest of alternative non-pharmacological measures such as a digital music therapy tool, adapted to an audience of …
Early Biomarkers in Premanifest Huntington's Disease Gene Carriers: a Pilot Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate if new, early biomarkers of the disease are available in presymptomatic genetic carriers of Huntington&;#39;s diesase compared to healthy subjects. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does functional brain MRI is able to detect early biomarkers of the disease …
Longitudinal SV2A and MRI in Premanifest HD
AIM: to compare the sensitivity of SV2A PET and volumetric MRI to detect longitudinal striatal changes in premanifest HD. DESIGN: The investigators will include late premanifest HD mutations carriers and matched healthy controls. All subjects will undergo a clinical examination, with comprehensive assessment of motor and non-motor symptoms, and imaging …
Study of SKY-0515 for Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacodynamics in Participants With Huntington's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to test if the drug SKY-0515, an oral medication, can lower harmful proteins linked to Huntington's Disease (HD) and improve the symptoms of participants with HD. This study includes men and women aged 25 and older who have HD confirmed by genetic testing …
Comparison Between [11C]UCB-J and [18F]SynVest-1 PET in HD.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a functional imaging technique, which enables in vivo visualization of biological molecules expressed in human tissues. Brain PET is most powerful to study a vast range of neurological and psychiatric disorders in vivo, targeting neuronal and glial activity, metabolism, cerebral blood flow, receptor proteins or …
A Randomised Controlled Trial, Of N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), for Premanifest Huntingtin Gene Expansion Carriers
NAC-preHD is a phase II randomized placebo controlled study of oral NAC among premanifest HD gene expansion carriers, with clinical and radiological outcome at three years.
