Active clinical trials for "Angelman Syndrome"

The Global Angelman Syndrome Registry is an online patient organisation driven registry to collect information about the natural history of children and adults with Angelman Syndrome. The registry will facilitate 1) recruitment for clinical trials into therapies and interventions to benefit participants with Angelman Syndrome and their families, and 2) advancement of research and best standards of care for Angelman Syndrome. The registry is currently available in English, Spanish, Traditional Chinese and Italian.

The goal of this study is to conduct a prospective, longitudinal natural history study of children and adults with Angelman Syndrome using investigator-observed and parent-reported outcome measures to obtain data that will be useful for future clinical trials.

This open-label study (OV101-18-002) will evaluate the long-term (52 weeks) safety of OV101 in subjects with AS and provide additional OV101 treatment to those subjects who completed Study OV101-15-001 (NCT02996305). Subjects with AS who completed the pharmacokinetic Study OV101-16-001 (NCT03109756) will also be permitted to participate, provided they meet all entry criteria.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness (how well a drug works) of Carbidopa/levodopa (Sinemet) in individuals with Angelman syndrome. Sinemet is a medication that helps to raise dopamine levels (a chemical that signals nerve cells) in the brain and central nervous system. There is evidence that dopamine concentrations may be abnormal in patients with Angelman syndrome. This study is investigating whether Sinemet helps motor control, intellectual function and the achievement of developmental milestones in people with Angelman syndrome

The aim of Study BP41660 is to quantify the amount and concentration of [89Zr]DFO-RO7248824 in the brain with positron emission tomography (PET) following a single sub-pharmacological dose of RO7248824 and [89Zr]DFO-RO7248824 administered via IT injection to healthy participants.

RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL, PLACEBO COMPARED TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF MINOCYCLINE IN ANGELMAN SYNDROME (A-MANECE STUDY)

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of oral OV101 (gaboxadol) in pediatric subjects with Angelman syndrome.

There is mounting evidence to suggest that a treatment for Angelman syndrome is not just possible, but probable. The lack of known molecular targets associated with AS has hampered the development of specific therapeutics. However, a recent surge of potential therapeutics for other disorders associated with cognitive disruption has begun to be used in human clinical trials. The molecular modes of action for many of these new therapeutic agents have correlates to counter the molecular defects observed in AS. One such agent is minocycline (MC), a drug traditionally used as an antibiotic. This compound administered to a mouse model of AS showed a significant decrease in motor deficit and an increase in long term potentiation. The investigators believe a similar result will be observed when minocycline is administered to the AS patient and may lead to the development of an effective AS therapeutic.

This study is designed to determine the highest dose of levodopa/carbidopa that can be tolerated without any serious side effects by children with Angelman syndrome. It has been hypothesized that levodopa may lead to an improvement in the neurodevelopment and abnormal movements (e.g. tremors) in children with Angelman syndrome. Data from this study will be used to design a phase II trial to determine the efficacy of levodopa in treating children with Angelman syndrome.

Angelman syndrome (AS) is a complex genetic disorder that affects the nervous system. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of certain dietary supplements in treating the symptoms of AS.
