Dexpramipexole and Cimetidine Drug Drug Interaction (DDI)

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

This study will assess the effect of cimetidine on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of dexpramipexole in healthy volunteer and evaluate the safety and tolerability of dexpramipexole when given with or without cimetidine. Additionally, this study will explore the influence of genetic variation on the PK of dexpramipexole when given with or without cimetidine.

Ibudilast (MN-166) in Subjects With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

This is a single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6-month study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and clinical responsiveness of MN-166/ibudilast (60 mg/day) when administered as an adjunct to riluzole (100 mg/day) in 60 subjects with ALS. This study will consist of two treatment arms, MN-166 and matching placebo. Randomization will occur in a 2:1 ratio (MN- 166: placebo). Duration of Treatment: Screening Phase: up to 3 months; Double-blind Phase: 6 months; Open-label Phase 6 months (for placebo subjects only); Follow-up Phase: 2 weeks after last dose. During treatment phase, subjects return to the clinic at Months 3 and 6 and will be telephoned by staff at Months 1,2,4, and 5 to collect information about side effects and new or concomitant medications. All subjects (subjects who complete the Double-blind Phase and subjects who complete the Open-label Phase) or prematurely discontinue will return for a follow-up visit approximately 2 weeks after the last dose of study drug to assess adverse event status and to document concomitant medications. Safety will be assessed by monitoring and recording all treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including serious adverse events (SAEs) and discontinuations due to TEAEs. Additional assessments will include regular monitoring of hematology, blood chemistry, and urine values, regular measurement of vital signs, ECGs, medical history, physical and neurological examinations.

Efficacy and Tolerability of Tauroursodeoxycholic Acid in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

The preclinical rationale for tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) use in treating patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) stems from the demonstration of antioxidant, antiapoptotic and neuroprotective properties of TUDCA in the central nervous system (CNS), both in vitro and in vivo models. This protocol is meant for assessing if the addition of TUDCA to the conventional therapy can improve the therapeutic outcome in patients affected by ALS. Safety will be assessed for all subjects, for the entire duration of the study. 30 patients affected by ALS with site of onset in the limbs will be recruited. All enrolled subjects will continue receiving riluzole at the same regimen as before entering the trial. Based on an appropriate random code, subjects will be divided into two groups of equal size treated, after a lead-in period of 3 months, by oral route with TUDCA at the dose 2 g daily for 1 year or with identical placebo by oral route at the same dosing schedule, under double-blind conditions. Every concomitant and/or supportive therapy will be admitted. Evaluation criteria: Efficacy. The proportion of responder patients in the two treatment groups was the primary outcome measure of the study. Responder patients were defined as those subjects showing an improvement of at least 15% in the ALSFRS-R (2) slope during the treatment period as compared to the lead-in period. This threshold was chosen based according to the consensus conference on designing and implementing clinical trials in ALS (3). Other parameters will include ALSFRS-R at study end, FVC%, the SF-36 quality of life rating scale, time to tracheotomy from starting of study medication dosing (if appropriate), survival Time from starting of study medication dosing (if appropriate), Medical Research Council scores for right and left muscle groups. Safety. Incidence, severity and type of adverse events; changes in clinical laboratory findings.
