Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 1

This study checks the long-term safety of tofersen (Qalsody) in 12 Chinese adults with a specific genetic form of ALS (SOD1-ALS). Participants receive 13 doses of the drug injected into the spine over about a year. The main goal is to track any side effects and how the drug moves…

This phase 3 trial tests whether the drug tofersen can delay or prevent ALS in adults who carry a SOD1 gene mutation but have no symptoms yet. About 158 participants will receive either tofersen or a placebo, and researchers will track how many develop ALS within two years. The g…

This early-stage trial tests a gene therapy called AMT-162 in 20 adults with a specific genetic form of ALS (SOD1-ALS). The treatment is given as a single injection into the spinal fluid. The main goal is to check safety and tolerability, while also looking for early signs that i…

This study is testing whether a simple saliva sample can help diagnose amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Researchers will analyze RNA in the saliva of 653 people, including ALS patients and healthy volunteers. If the test works, it could offer a faster, less invasive way to di…

This study follows 1000 people with upper motor neuron disease who are about to receive the Cionic Neural Sleeve. The sleeve uses electrical stimulation to help muscles contract at the right time during movement. Researchers will track changes in health-related quality of life us…
