A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of RG6496 in Huntington's Disease
This is a first-in-human (FIH) study of RG6496 that will assess the safety and tolerability of single-ascending doses of RG6496 administered to huntington's disease gene expansion carriers (HDGECs). The study consists of two parts: Part 1 \[single-ascending dose\] followed by Part 2 \[open-label extension (OLE)\].
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 …
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 the Pharmacodynamics, Safety and Efficacy of SKY-0515 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 …
Home-based TDCS (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) for Cognitive and Behavioral Symptoms in Huntington's Disease
The researchers hope to find out effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) sessions on the behavioral symptoms of Huntington's Disease. If participants are eligible to continue, they will be provided a device to administer the tDCS for 30 minutes each day and be asked to answer questions with the …
Modification of Threat Interpretation Bias to Reduce Anxiety in Neurodegenerative Movement Disorders (Aim 3)
The purpose of this study is to assess preliminary efficacy of a tailored cognitive bias modification for interpretation (CBM-I) app for reducing anxiety in Huntington's disease and Parkinson's disease.
Striatum and Hippocampus on Different Time Scales
Time processing is fundamental to survival and goal reaching in humans. Different time scales (seconds, minutes, and beyond) are processed through specific cognitive processes involving different neural representations. It is generally agreed that time scale in seconds-to-minutes range named "interval timing" would be anatomically linked to the striatum. Indeed, it …
Social Cognition Training in Individuals With Huntington's Disease
Individuals with Huntington's Disease have impaired social cognition, which is the domain of cognition that allows individuals to understand others' perspectives so that they can navigate interpersonal actions successfully (e.g., understanding someone may be sad based of their facial emotion or tone of voice and then responding in a sympathetic …
HD-tDCS to Modulate Connectivity
The purpose of the proposed study is to broaden our understanding on the neural effects of High Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS) so that its clinical effects can be further improved.
HD-tDCS for Phonological Impairment in Aphasia
This study will investigate the effects of mild electrical stimulation in conjunction with speech therapy for people with post-stroke aphasia to enhance language recovery.
