Active clinical trials for "Muscular Atrophy, Spinal"

An outpatient rehabilitation program for children (6 months to 3 years old) with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) treated with genetic based therapies is being studied. Participants will participate in a 12-week therapy program where they receive 45 minutes each of occupational therapy and physical therapy each week. Home exercises will also be prescribed to be completed 5 days per week. At the end of the therapy program, there will be a 12-week period of no therapy where only home exercises will be completed. Assessments and program evaluation will occur at the beginning (Week 0) and end of the rehabilitation program (Week 24), then at the end of the no therapy block (week 24).

A multi-center, longitudinal, prospective, non-comparative study to investigate the long-term safety and effectiveness of risdiplam, prescribed based on clinician judgment as per the Evrysdi® U.S. Package Insert (USPI) in adult and pediatric participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). In this study, participants will be followed for up to 5 years from enrollment or until withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or death. Participants who discontinue risdiplam may still remain in the study, if they agree to continue participating in the follow-up assessments.

The study will evaluate safety and efficacy of intrathecal delivery of GC101 gene therapy drug as a treatment of spinal muscular atrophy Type 2 (SMA 2) patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NMD670 in the treatment of ambulatory adults with spinal muscular atrophy type 3

In the last 10-15 years, a better understanding of the pathophysiology and molecular genetics of SMA has led to the emergence of previously unavailable pharmacological and genetic treatments.One of these new treatments, Nusinersen, targets SMN2, which is a slightly different copy of SMN1, and increases SMN protein levels. Preclinical studies have provided evidence that neuroprotection is strongly formed, with exercise significantly increasing motor neuron survival independent of SMN expression. In a limited number of clinical studies prior to Nusinersen treatment, it was reported that aerobic exercise training improved maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) without causing muscle damage, but still caused fatigue. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of aerobic exercise training on motor and respiratory functions, exercise capacity, fatigue and quality of life in SMA Type III patients who can walk and receive Nusinersen therapy. Twenty cases aged 10-50 years with genetically confirmed SMA diagnosis will be included in this study. The cases to be included in the study will be randomized into 2 groups as the training and control groups. In addition to the routine physiotherapy program, medium-intensity Aerobic Exercise Training will be given to the study group for 12 weeks. Before and 12 weeks after the training, the cases will be evaluated with the Six Minute Walking Test, Submaximal Exercise Test, SMN protein level, function and strength assessments, (FVC) value, fatigue and quality of life scales. In clinical trials, the supporting evidence for aerobic interventions in SMA is limited. Additional studies on aerobic intervention parameters (frequency, intensity and duration) are needed.The results of this study will determine the feasibility of aerobic exercise training and provide important guidance for the clinical management of SMA patients.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a serious neuromuscular disease characterized by the degeneration of alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord, resulting in progressive proximal muscle atrophy and denervation. The main problems are posture disorders, scoliosis, pelvic curvature, contracture, hip dislocation, foot and chest deformities. In this study, examining the effectiveness of trunk support used to alleviate the progression of scoliosis in children diagnosed with SMA Type I will contribute to the current literature.In addition to Individualized Trunk Exercises (ITE), Individualized Pulmonary Rehabilitation (IPR) and Chest Care (CC) Programme, the use of thoracolumbosacral spinal orthosis in Type I children will be used for the first time in our country and in the world literature. SMA. Our aim in the project is to examine the effectiveness of this treatment program on the motor functions, scoliosis Cobb angle, pelvic curvature and chest deformity of children with Type I SMA.The project is planned to be carried out with children diagnosed with Type I SMA who are followed up at Medipol Mega University Hospital Pediatric Chest Diseases Polyclinic.In evaluating the development of scoliosis as the primary outcome measure; Radiological evaluation (Cobb Angle) and examination of chest deformity; Lung X-ray (Basal Chest Wall Upper-Lower Ratio Measurement) will be used. As secondary outcome measures, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test for Neuromuscular Disorders and the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded were used to assess motor functions and examine the level of motor development; In the World Health Organization Motor Development Scale body posture assessment; Supine Trunk Rotation Angle Test and Pelvic Curvature Test, pulse oximetry to assess oxygenation; In determining the level of satisfaction with orthosis use; Children/families' information will be questioned through the Quebec Assistive Technology User Satisfaction Evaluation Survey and Personal Information Form.The active control group will receive the ITE, IPR and CC program as a home program and once a week in the outpatient clinic for 8 weeks, 7 days a week, once a day, each session being 50-60 minutes. In the ITE-IPR-CC + spine orthosis group, in addition to the control group program, a thoracolumbosacral spine orthosis specially designed for the child will be used every day of the week and 8 hours a day for 8 weeks. Evaluations will be made at baseline and at week 8.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate motor function following treatment with HD nusinersen in participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) previously treated with risdiplam. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HD nusinersen in participants with SMA previously treated with risdiplam.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate safety and efficacy of intravenous delivery of EXG001-307 as a treatment of spinal muscular atrophy Type 1 (SMN1).

The study will evaluate safety and efficacy of intrathecal delivery of GC101 gene therapy drug as a treatment of spinal muscular atrophy Type 1 (SMA 1) patients.

This is a global, prospective, multi-center study that is designed to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of OAV101 in patients who participated in an OAV101 clinical trial. The assessments of safety and efficacy in Study COAV101A12308 will continue for 15 years from the date of OAV101 administration in the parent study.
