New hope for slowing a rare brain disease

NCT ID NCT05983588

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called glycerol phenylbutyrate (GPB) can slow the progression of corticobasal syndrome (CBS), a rare and rapidly progressing brain disorder. For 26 weeks, 32 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo to see if it reduces levels of a blood biomarker linked to nerve damage. The main goal is to see if the drug can modify the disease course, as there are currently no treatments that slow CBS down.
