Active clinical trials for "Muscular Atrophy, Spinal"

In this single-center trial, we will evaluate the effects of NaPB on presymptomatic Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) type I (cohort 1)and presymptomatic SMA type II (cohort 2) infants. A variety of outcome measures will be performed at each study visit to follow the course of the disease. Total duration of the study for type I infants will be 18 months, for type II infants, 24 months.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Growth hormon can increase strength in spinal muscular atrophy type II and III.

The objectives of this trial are: to establish a safety profile for use of Hydroxyurea in children with Type I Spinal Muscular Atrophy; to identify reliable outcome measures for HU treatment in Type I SMA; and to detect the clinical efficacy of HU treatment in children with Type I SMA.

The objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Risdiplam (RO7034067) in healthy people. The study will assess what the body does to Risdiplam (RO7034067) and what Risdiplam (RO7034067) does to the body. Risdiplam (RO7034067) will be given by mouth in gradually increasing doses. The data from this study will help to define the dose to further explore Risdiplam (RO7034067) in patients with Spinal Muscular Atrophy.

The primary objective of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability of nusinersen (ISIS 396443) administered intrathecally to participants with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) who previously participated in ISIS 396443-CS1 (NCT02865109). The secondary objective was to examine the plasma pharmacokinetics of a single dose of ISIS 396443 administered intrathecally to participants with SMA who previously participated in ISIS 396443-CS1.

This clinical trial aims to test a new physio-therapeutic approach tailored to type 2 and 3 Spinal Muscular Atrophy patients, based on physical training in swimming-pool. This specific exercise should promote motor skills of trained patients, as we have observed in different mouse models. Patient's motor skills will be assessed using different scales including MFM and Hammersmith. This clinical trial attempts to develop a new non-invasive motor scale with sophisticated instruments. This scale will be useful in future clinical trials on SMA, given the lack of sensitivity of currently available scales. In addition, the study attempts to validate a questionnaire on post-exercise physical well-being.

Respiratory dysfunction is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Air stacking is a clearance airway technique frequently used but its effects on cardiac autonomic function in patients with spinal muscle atrophy is not clear. Objective: To evaluate the acute effect of air stacking and posture on cardiac autonomic function in patients with spinal muscular atrophy types II and III. Methods: Patients with spinal muscle atrophy type II and III will be recruited. Electrocardiogram signals will be recorded for analyses of heart rate variability during air stacking in supine and sitting position.

Phase 3, open-label, single-arm, single-dose, trial of onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi (gene replacement therapy) in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) Type 1 who meet enrollment criteria and are genetically defined by a biallelic pathogenic mutation of the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) with one or two copies of survival motor neuron 2 gene (SMN2). Up to 30 patients < 6 months (< 180 days) of age at the time of gene replacement therapy (Day 1) will be enrolled.

The new NAVA® ventilatory mode with the SERVO-i ventilator (Maquet®) uses the electrical activity of the diaphragm (EADi) as a marker for triggering the respiratory cycle. The EADi is captured by the electrodes of a specific catheter (the Edi® catheter) placed in the esophagus as a regular gastric feeding tube, and relayed to the SERVO-i who displays it and delivers respiratory assistance according to measured Edi signal which allows synchronous assistance, proportional to the respiratory efforts of the patient. To date, no measure of the effectiveness of NAVA NAV has been performed in children with neuromuscular pathology whereas this technique could reduce the use of invasive ventilation, very iatrogenic in these fragile subjects.

To evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of intravenous administration of OAV101 (AVXS-101) in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) with bi-allelic mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene weighing ≥ 8.5 kg and ≤ 21 kg, over a 12 month period.
