Evaluation of the Combined Therapy of EH-301 and N-acetylcysteine Together With Riluzole in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
This study is designed to evaluate whether a combination of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and EH-301 can slow down or improve symptoms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Researchers will assess changes in disease progression using the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R), a standard tool for measuring daily functioning in people with ALS.The …
UCB Transplant of Inherited Metabolic Diseases With Administration of Intrathecal UCB Derived Oligodendrocyte-Like Cells
The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety and feasibility of intrathecal administration of DUOC-01 as an adjunctive therapy in patients with inborn errors of metabolism who have evidence of early demyelinating disease in the central nervous system (CNS) who are undergoing standard treatment with unrelated umbilical …
Daridorexant for Alzheimer Disease Prevention
This study will evaluate whether daridorexant, a DORA sleep medication, can support brain health by promoting the clearance of proteins linked to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease. The trial is preventive and is open to participants who do not have Alzheimer's disease dementia, regardless of whether or not …
Enhancing Language Function in Aphasia
Aphasia is an acquired impairment of language, that commonly results from damage to language areas in the brain (typically the left side of the brain). This impairment is seen in many aspects of language, including understanding, speaking, reading and writing. It is estimated that about 2 million individuals are currently …
Remotely-supervised Neuromodulation in PPA
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether home-based brain stimulation combined with virtual speech-language therapy can improve communication abilities in adults with logopenic variant primary progressive aphasia (lvPPA), a language disorder most often caused by Alzheimer's disease.The main questions the study aims to answer are:Is combining remotely …
Home Versus Hospital Based NIV Care in MND
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly offered to people with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) who have breathing difficulties. It improves their quality of life and can prolong life by 6 months or more. It is initially used at night and typically set up during a hospital admission. By the time that …
Incremental Diagnostic Value of Tau-PET With [18F]RO948 vs Amyloid-PET in Patients With Cognitive Impairment
The objective of the study is to investigate the clinical validity of tau-PET with [18F]RO948 vs. amyloid-PET in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or mild dementia
The Skin as a Window to the Central Nervous System in Frontotempolar Lombar Degeneration
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a clinically heterogeneous syndrome, characterized by progressive decline in behaviour and/or language. From a pathological standpoint, like the great majority of neurodegenerative disorders, FTLD are proteinopathies, which are characterized by the presence of specific protein deposits in the Central Nervous System (CNS). Accordingly, the two …
Test of Aquatic Mobility of SMA Infants
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic neurodegenerative disease impacting spinal cord motor neurons, leading to motor and respiratory issues and, ultimately, death. With emerging therapies, a need arises to enhance motor function assessment in severely hypotonic infants (SMA type 1) as traditional scales on examination tables lack completeness due …
Enhancing Language Function in Primary Progressive Aphasia
This study's goal is to use non-invasive brain stimulation (NBS) techniques to treat language impairment associated with Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA). The purpose of this study is to combine behavioral language intervention with individualized noninvasive brain stimulation techniques, called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to help the brain reorganize around …
