Autosomal recessive ataxia due to ubiquinone deficiency

This program offered vatiquinone, an experimental liquid medication, to patients with inherited mitochondrial diseases like Leigh syndrome who had already completed a previous safety study. The goal was to continue treatment for those who might benefit, but enrollment is now clos…

This study tests whether an AI tool can help radiologists read brain CT and MRI scans more accurately and quickly. Researchers will compare how well doctors, AI alone, and doctors using AI together can spot abnormalities, urgent findings, and classify diseases. The goal is to red…

This study tests a personalized workplace intervention for 124 Dutch workers with Parkinson's disease, cerebellar ataxia, hereditary spastic paraparesis, or slowly progressive neuromuscular/mitochondrial disorders. A trained facilitator helps employees and their managers identify…

This study tests new vitamin and mineral supplements called EasiVits for children aged 1-16 with inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). These supplements have less carbohydrate and no flavor, so they can be used with different diets and kids can add their own taste. The goal is to se…

This study tests whether a home-based brain stimulation device (tDCS) combined with activity therapy can help improve cognitive and language problems in people with stroke, brain tumors, or neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. Fifty-five participants will…

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can improve movement in people with degenerative ataxia, a rare condition that damages the cerebellum and impairs balance and coordination. Sixteen participan…

This study will collect and analyze genetic data from 1000 people with suspected inherited metabolic diseases, including conditions like epilepsy and mitochondrial disorders. Researchers at Karolinska University Hospital aim to improve diagnosis by using advanced genetic testing …

This study was designed to track how COVID-19 infection might worsen the condition of people with inherited metabolic diseases (IMD). Researchers planned to collect information from French patients with IMD who had or had COVID-19 to see how often their metabolic disease got wors…

This study uses special MRI scans to measure how well muscles produce energy in people with mitochondrial disease. Researchers hope to learn more about the condition and develop a new tool to help diagnose and track it. The study involves 230 participants aged 7 to 75 with suspec…

This study aims to discover new genetic mutations that cause mitochondrial disorders by analyzing tissue samples from up to 6,900 participants. It includes people with suspected or known mitochondrial diseases, such as MELAS or Leigh's Disease, who lack a genetic diagnosis. The r…

This study gathers MRI, CT, and ultrasound images from 300 adults—some healthy, some with kidney or brain disease—to build a collection for future not-for-profit research. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is to make medical images available to scientists for advancing…
