Active clinical trials for "Niemann-Pick Diseases"

This phase 2 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 12 weeks study with daily oral administration of AZ-3102 aiming to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile in GM2 Gangliosidosis and Niemann-Pick type C disease (NP-C) patients. If approved by the country health authorities, a double-blind extension period will be proposed to the patients who complete the 12-week study.

A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center therapeutic study for patients age 3 and older with confirmed diagnosis of Niemann Pick disease type C1 (NPC1). The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of 2000 mg/kg dose of Trappsol Cyclo (hydroxypropyl betacyclodextrin) administered intravenously compared to standard of care. An open-label sub-study in countries following European Medicines Agency (EMA) guidance will enroll asymptomatic or symptomatic patients from infancy up to age 3 to evaluate safety in that population.

The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety and feasibility of intrathecal administration of DUOC-01 as an adjunctive therapy in patients with inborn errors of metabolism who have evidence of early demyelinating disease in the central nervous system (CNS) who are undergoing standard treatment with unrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). The secondary objective of the study is to describe the efficacy of UCBT with intrathecal administration of DUOC-01 in these patients.

A pivotal, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center therapeutic study for patients age 4 and older with a confirmed diagnosis of Niemann Pick disease type C (NPC). The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of N-acetyl-L-leucine (IB1001) compared to standard of care.

A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled therapeutic study in participants with confirmed diagnosis of Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC). The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of arimoclomol (compared to placebo) when it is administered as an add-on therapy to the participant's current prescribed best routine clinical care; participant's routine clinical care may, or may not, include miglustat. The CT-ORZY-NPC-002 study has been expanded to include an open label paediatric sub-study including participants aged 6 to <24 months at study enrolment.

This is a multinational, multicenter, open-label, rater-blinded prospective Phase II study which will assess the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) for the treatment of Niemann-Pick type C disease (NPC). There are two phases to this study: the Parent Study, and the Extension Phase. The Parent Study evaluates the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) for the symptomatic treatment of NPC. The Extension Phase evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of IB1001 for the neuroprotective, disease-modifying treatment of NPC.

Primary Objective: The primary objective of this phase 2/3 study is to evaluate the efficacy of olipudase alfa (recombinant human acid sphingomyelinase) administered intravenously once every 2 weeks for 52 weeks in adult participants with acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) by assessing changes in: 1) spleen volume as measured by abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (and, for the United States [US] only, in association with participant perception related to spleen volume as measured by splenomegaly-related score [SRS]); and 2) infiltrative lung disease as measured by the pulmonary function test, diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO). Secondary Objectives: To confirm the safety of olipudase alfa administered intravenously once every 2 weeks for 52 weeks. To characterize the effect of olipudase alfa on the participant perception related to spleen volume as measured by the SRS after 52 weeks of study drug administration. (For the US, the effect of olipudase alfa on the SRS is part of the primary objective). To characterize the effect of olipudase alfa after 52 weeks of study drug administration on the following outcome measures assessed sequentially: The effect of olipudase alfa on liver volume; The effect of olipudase alfa on platelet count; The effect of olipudase alfa on fatigue; The effect of olipudase alfa on pain; The effect of olipudase alfa on dyspnea.

Niemann-Pick disease, type C (NPC) is a lethal, autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disorder characterized by neurodegeneration in early childhood and death in adolescence. NPC results from mutation of either the Niemann-Pick C1 disease (NPC1) (~95% of cases) or NPC2 genes. NPC is characterized by the endolysosomal storage of unesterified cholesterol and lipids in both the central nervous system and peripheral tissues such as the liver. Individuals with NPC demonstrate progressive central nervous system decline including inability to coordinate balance, gait, extremity and eye movements. Acute liver disease in the newborn/infant period is frequently observed, but subsequently resolves. However, chronic, sub-clinical liver disease persists. Intrathecal 2-Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD, VTS-270) has proven effective in reducing the signs and prolonging life in animal models and Phase 1/2a data support efficacy in NPC1 patients. VTS-270 also has been shown to be effective in treating liver disease in the NPC1 cat. This Phase 1/2a, open-label, multiple ascending dose trial will evaluate whether VTS-270 administered intravenously is effective in treating acute liver disease in NPC1 infants.

The goal of this study is to assess the ability of MRI techniques to detect early stages of lipid accumulation in the liver of ASMD patients with the chronic visceral subtype compared to healthy subjects. Participants will undergo an MRI with MR Spectroscopy (MRS) to measure lipid accumulation (steatosis) and MR Elastography (MRE) to measure liver stiffness (fibrosis).

Primary Objective: To describe the lung, spleen and liver outcomes of olipudase alfa Secondary Objectives: To describe the patient's characteristics To describe conditions of olipudase alfa use To describe safety data related to the use of olipudase alfa To describe complementary effectiveness outcomes parameters
