Search clinical trials by condition, location and status
This study is an observational, prospective genetic study. It aims to obtain DNA for research and testing from patients with PSP, CBS, MSA, and related neurological conditions and their families. Up to 1,000 adults who have been clinically diagnosed with PSP, CBS, MSA, or related neurological conditions will be enrolled. The study intervention involves sequencing of participant blood samples using non-CLIA-approved whole genome sequencing at the National Institutes of Health. Pathogenic variants that are deemed possibly related to these conditions will be confirmed using CLIA-approved testing. The study involves minimal risk to participants.
The primary objective of this study is to enroll an observational cohort of approximately 60 patients with PSP over the course of 24 months using a multicenter study design and to follow each of them for 12 months. The secondary objective of this study is to develop a robust solution for multi-modal remote monitoring of motor symptoms and function in PSP that can be applied to other Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) syndromes.
A35-009 (ORION) is a Phase 2b/3 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMX0035 in participants with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), consisting of randomized, double blind placebo controlled phases, followed by an optional open-label extension phase.
The aim of this study is to create a repository of both cross-sectional and longitudinal data, including cognitive, linguistic, imaging and biofluid biological specimens, for neurodegenerative disease research and treatment.
ARTFL LEFFTDS Longitudinal Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (ALLFTD) represents the formalized integration of ARTFL (U54 NS092089; funded through 2019) and LEFFTDS (U01 AG045390; funded through 2019) as a single North American research consortium to study FTLD for 2019 and beyond.
This study is designed to learn more about overall tau burden in the brain of patients with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).
The current protocol is to determine the biodistribution, metabolism, excretion and brain uptake of 18F-JSS20-183A. The goal of this radiotracer is to quantify 4Repeat Tau (4Rtau) protein that is abnormally deposited in the brain of people with a class of neurodegenerative diseases called tauopathies, such as Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS), syndromes of genetic Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (genetic FTLD) as well as participants with Parkinson disease (PD), Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and healthy controls. This multicenter project funded by an NIH U19 grant, is centered at U Pennsylvania (Penn, Grant PI: Robert Mach) in collaboration with U Pittsburgh (Pitt), Yale U, U of California at San Francisco (UCSF) and Washington University in St. Louis (WUSTL). The University of Pennsylvania will act as the sIRB for this multi-center human subjects project and participants will be recruited from all sites.
