Polyneuropathy

This study is a long-term extension of earlier trials testing the drug riliprubart in adults with CIDP, a condition where the immune system attacks the nerves, causing weakness and numbness. About 300 participants who completed a prior riliprubart study will continue receiving th…

This study tests a drug called riliprubart in 140 adults with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) that hasn't improved with standard care. Participants receive either riliprubart or a placebo for up to 111 weeks. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces di…

This study tests whether adding telitacicept to standard therapy helps adults with refractory chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), a nerve condition that causes weakness and numbness. About 76 participants will receive either standard care alone or standard c…

This Phase 2 trial is testing a new drug called NVG-2089 in 60 adults with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), a condition where the immune system attacks nerves. The drug is designed to mimic a natural protein (IVIg) to reduce inflammation and improve nerve…

This phase 2 trial tests whether high-dose chemotherapy followed by a stem cell transplant can stop the immune system from attacking the nervous system in people with autoimmune neurologic diseases like multiple sclerosis and stiff person syndrome. The treatment aims to weaken th…

This study gives one patient with CIDP access to their own stored stem cells to see if it's safe and might help. The patient receives multiple infusions over 44 weeks and is followed for a year. Because it's only one person, the results are very limited.

This study planned to test the drug rituximab in people with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), a nerve condition that causes weakness and numbness. The goal was to see if rituximab could help certain patients stop their current treatments and achieve long-…

This study aims to create a simple test battery to determine fall risk in people with neuromuscular disorders, such as muscular dystrophy or ALS. Researchers will assess 108 participants using several physical tests like walking, standing, and rising from a chair. The goal is to …

Guillain-Barré syndrome can leave people with weak arms and hands, making daily tasks hard. This trial tests whether adding robot-assisted arm training to usual therapy helps adults in the sub-acute phase of recovery. Participants use the Armeo Power 2 exoskeleton for 20 sessions…

This study tests a biodegradable tube that is placed over a cut nerve during a leg biopsy. The goal is to see if it is safe and reduces common side effects like pain, redness, and swelling. Twenty adults with various nerve conditions are taking part, and half will get the tube wh…

This study treated one 58-year-old man with polyneuropathy caused by POEMS syndrome using his own fat-derived stem cells. He received eight infusions over 28 weeks to try to relieve nerve symptoms. The study is no longer available and was not a formal clinical trial.

Researchers are checking whether tests of muscle strength, walking, balance, and fine motor skills give consistent results in people with polyneuropathy. About 520 adults with various forms of nerve damage, plus healthy volunteers, take part. Participants complete physical tests,…

This study looks at 25 ICU patients who were on breathing machines for at least 2 days. Researchers want to see if a physical test called CPAx, done when leaving the ICU, can predict how well they walk 3 months later. The goal is to help doctors plan better rehab for patients aft…

This study follows women with early-stage breast cancer who are about to receive paclitaxel chemotherapy, a treatment that often causes nerve damage. Researchers will use smartwatches and a mobile app to track physical activity, sleep, and stress, alongside clinical exams and ski…

This study looks at whether a tool called the Chelsea Critical Care Physical Assessment tool (CPAx) can accurately track recovery in 120 adults who developed muscle weakness after being on a breathing machine in the ICU. The goal is to find the smallest meaningful improvement tha…

This study looks at how much energy critically ill patients on ventilators use during routine passive physiotherapy. By measuring oxygen consumption with a special device in the breathing tube, researchers hope to understand the physical demands of these exercises. The goal is to…

This study aims to find early biological markers that can predict muscle weakness in children who need a breathing machine in the intensive care unit. About 500 children will be observed to see who develops this condition. The goal is to create a warning system so doctors can int…

This study is developing an early warning model to predict ICU-acquired weakness in children who need mechanical ventilation. Researchers will track 1,500 children in the PICU, looking for biomarkers and other signs that could forecast muscle weakness. The goal is to move from di…
