Experimental drug tested for rare neurological disease

NCT ID NCT03759678

Summary

This study tested an experimental drug called N-Acetyl-L-Leucine for people with Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T), a rare genetic disorder that affects coordination and the immune system. The main goal was to see if the drug was safe and if it could help improve symptoms like walking, hand movements, and quality of life. All 17 participants received the drug for 6 weeks, followed by a 6-week period without it, so researchers could compare their condition with and without treatment.
