Evaluation of Botulinum Toxin Injection Efficacy in the Treatment of Head Essential Tremor
Essential Head TremorEssential head tremor (HT) does not usually respond to drug treatment such as propranolol or primidone or to surgical treatment such as deep brain stimulation of the thalamic ventralis intermedius nucleus. Botulinum toxin (Btx) is widely used and efficient in the treatment of blepharospasm and cervical dystonia. Btx prevents the release of acetylcholine in synapses, leading to a reduction of pathological muscle movement. Very little information is available on its efficacy on HT. Two published reports suggested that local Btx A injections could be an effective and safe approach for treating HT. Given the scarcity of published data (small samples, open studies, different doses of Btx used, heterogeneous populations, several muscles injected, etc.), the aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of Btx injections in essential HT by a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study. Principal objective: To evaluate the efficacy of botulinum toxin injections in the treatment of head tremor. Secondary objectives: - To evaluate the tolerance of botulinum toxin injections in the treatment of head tremor. - To evaluate the impact of botulinum toxin injections on the patients' quality of life and embarrassment. To evaluate the changes of tremor characteristics induced by a Btx treatment using a 3D accelerometer wireless portable system (Xsens MTw wireless motion tracker system) (tremor frequency, tremor displacement, mean peak amplitude, distance traveled) and a new video system device to analyze head tremor characteristics

Deep Brain Stimulation for Voice Tremor: Left, Right, or Both Hemispheres?
Essential Voice TremorDeep Brain Stimulation5 moreDeep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is the gold standard treatment for Essential Tremor (ET). ET is a movement disorder which causes the arms, feet, fingers, head or voice to involuntarily shake. The DBS surgical procedure involves implanting an electrode deep within the brain which blocks damaging signals that cause the tremor. Essential Voice Tremor (EVT) is the vocal manifestation of ET and a number of individuals have both ET and EVT, and when these patients are implanted for their ET, their EVT symptoms are often also mitigated. This study aims to quantify the effects of DBS on EVT by testing on these ET+EVT patients. In addition to this, we hope to determine which hemisphere of the brain is responsible for larynx control: left or right.

Switching Study of Kidney Transplant Patients With Tremor to LCP-Tacro (STRATO)
Renal FailureTremorsThis study will evaluate and measure symptomatic hand tremor in stable kidney transplant subjects on Prograf or generic tacrolimus maintenance therapy at baseline (pre-conversion) and following conversion to LCP-Tacro. This study will also evaluate the safety of LCP-Tacro compared with Prograf or generic tacrolimus

A Proof of Concept Study of the Effectiveness of Carisbamate in the Treatment of Essential Tremor...
Essential TremorMovement DisordersThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of carisbamate treatment for the signs, symptoms, and impairment associated with Essential Tremor (ET) compared to placebo treatment. The secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of carisbamate treatment on indicators of affect and mood in patients who have ET compared to placebo treatment.
