New hope for ALS patients: experimental drug aims to slow deadly disease

NCT ID NCT07023835

Summary

This study is testing whether a new oral drug called Usnoflast can slow the progression of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). It involves 240 adults with early-stage ALS who will take either the drug or a placebo for 36 weeks, followed by an optional 16-week period where everyone gets the drug. The main goals are to see if the drug helps people maintain physical function and live longer without needing permanent breathing assistance.
