NCT ID NCT06870838

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 36 times

Summary

This observational study looks at how brain inflammation contributes to frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), a group of rare brain disorders. Researchers will use advanced MRI scans, blood tests, and spinal fluid samples from 110 participants to track changes over time. The goal is to better understand the disease and find markers that could help diagnose and monitor it, not to test a new treatment.
