Active clinical trials for "Atrophy"

This is an open label first in human Phase I/II multicentre study of GT005 in subjects with Macular Atrophy due to AMD

Single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase-II, futility clinical trial to determine if oral sirolimus is of sufficient promise to slow disease progression in MSA, prior to embarking on a large-scale and costly phase III study to assess its efficacy. A futility design under the null hypothesis assumes that sirolimus will slow the progression of the disease, whereas the alternative hypothesis assumes no benefit of sirolimus. If the null hypothesis is rejected (i.e., futility of sirolimus to slow progression of MSA), a major phase III study will be discouraged, whereas non-futility will offer strong support for a phase III trial to detect clinical efficacy.

This study is designed to investigate the safety, PK/PD, biomarker and early clinical effects of repeat GEM103 IVT injections.

The investigators hypothesize that serum neurofilament-light chain (NfL) levels at baseline and decrease of the macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness at one year vs. baseline are as good as progression of whole brain atrophy at one year vs. baseline to predict later evolution of neurological disability in multiple sclerosis patients.

This multicenter open-label extension study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of lampalizumab intravitreal injections in participants with GA secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who completed 96 weeks of treatment in Studies GX29176 (NCT02247479) or GX29185 (NCT02247531). The extension will enroll participants from the parent studies who received investigational lampalizumab, as well as lampalizumab-naive participants exposed to sham comparator. All participants will receive open-label lampalizumab in the present study.

This is a long term, safety follow up study of patients in the AVXS-101-CL-101 gene replacement therapy clinical trial for SMA Type 1 delivering onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi. Patients will roll over from the parent study into this long-term study for continuous safety monitoring for up to 15 years.

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of the brimonidine intravitreal implant in participants with geographic atrophy due to age-related macular degeneration.

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, 12-week, placebo-controlled multiple dose study will investigate the safety and tolerability of RO6885247 in adult and pediatric patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).

A long term safety study of amifampridine phosphate in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) Type 3.

The larynx and vocal folds undergo many age-related changes in their physiology and structure that can lead to undesirable effects on the voice, with changes in the respiratory system compounding these deficits. These changes, also called presbyphonia, can have serious detrimental effects on the lives of elderly individuals. There are few studies that have evaluated the use of voice therapy treatment options for these patients. The primary aim of this study is to test whether the addition of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) to a current, validated voice therapy protocol aimed at treating presbyphonia, (phonation resistance training, PhoRTE) can improve outcomes of therapy.
