Active clinical trials for "Genetic Diseases, X-Linked"

This is an open-label extension study for patients previously enrolled in the AB2 Bio Ltd. ongoing Phase III clinical trial NLRC4/XIAP.2016.001 (IND N° 127953). This OLE study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Tadekinig alfa in patients suffering from pediatric monogenic autoinflammatory diseases harboring deleterious mutations of NLRC4 and XIAP.

Patients with biochemically confirmed SLOS are being treated with cholesterol supplementation and antioxidant medication. They are carefully monitored with visits to clinic, laboratory testing including cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol levels, vitamin levels, blood counts and liver and kidney function. On a serial basis, no more often than once a year, the patients undergo a series of tests under anesthesia, including electroretinogram (ERG), brainstem audiometry (ABR), and ophthalmologic exam under anesthesia to follow pigmentary retinopathy.

This study is a Phase 2 trial designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MAS825 in patients with NLRC4-GOF, XIAP deficiency, or CDC42 mutations.

HOPE-3 is a two cohort, Phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of a cell therapy called CAP-1002 in study participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and impaired skeletal muscle function. Non-ambulatory and ambulatory boys and young men who meet eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to receive either CAP-1002 or placebo every 3 months for a total of 4 doses during the first 12-months of the study. All participants will be eligible to receive 4 doses of CAP-1002 for an additional 12 months as part of an open-label extended assessment period.

This study is a controlled trial of metformin in individuals with fragile X syndrome between the ages of 6 and 25 years. Participants will be randomized in a double-blind design to either drug or placebo and will attend three visits to the study site in a 4-month period for a series of tests. The primary objectives are to assess safety, tolerability, and efficacy of metformin in the treatment of language deficits, behavior problems, and obesity/excessive appetite in individuals with fragile X syndrome.

Hypothesis: the hypothesis of the study is that aerobic physical exercise (PE) performed with the method Braining accelerates recovery from bipolar depression as well as improves psychiatric and somatic health in individuals with bipolar depression Method: a randomized controlled trial with 54 patients with bipolar depression are randomized to 12 weeks of either 1) supervised aerobic PE 3 times/week, 2) supervised relaxation/stretching 3 times/week or 3) information about PE but no supervised activity.

SPK-8016 is in development for the treatment of patients with inhibitors to FVIII. This Phase 1/2, open-label, non-randomized, dose-finding study is part one of a planned two part study of SPK-8016. Part one will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of SPK-8016 in adult males with clinically severe hemophilia A and no measurable inhibitor against FVIII. Data obtained from Part 1 will inform the study design and dose selection for Part 2 in patients with FVIII inhibitors.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether dietary cholic acid therapy benefits people with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) by leading to an increase in serum cholesterol and reduction in harmful cholesterol precursors. SLOS participants will be treated with dietary cholic acid for 8 weeks and serum cholesterol and cholesterol precursor metabolites will be measured.

This is a Phase 3 study to assess the safety and efficacy of Tadekinig alfa in patients with monogenic, interleukin-18 (IL 18) driven autoinflammation due to Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine-rich repeat and caspase recruiting domain (CARD domain) containing 4 (NLRC4) - Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) mutation (NLRC4-MAS mutation) or X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) deficiency. Because of the likelihood for pathogenic IL-18 in certain monogenic diseases, patients known to harbor deleterious mutations in NLRC4-MAS or XIAP and who have a history of ongoing inflammation will be enrolled if they have ferritin ≥ 500 ng/mL or persistent C reactive protein (CRP) elevation ≥ 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) and the patients should have a Modified Autoinflammatory Disease Activity Index (mAIDAI) ≥ 4.
