Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called ONO-2808 in people with multiple system atrophy (MSA), a rare and serious brain disease. About 92 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo daily for up to 80 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and might help control symptoms or slow the disease.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ONO-2808 (an oral drug)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a treatment that slows or eases symptoms of multiple system atrophy, a rare and severe neurological disorder.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 92 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug's safety and effectiveness are still unproven, and side effects are possible.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Female or male patients with a diagnosis of clinically-established or clinically-probable MSA according to the novel Movement Disorder Society (MDS) criteria for MSA diagnosis (2022), including patients with MSA of either subtype (MSA-P or MSA-C). 2. Patients at the early stages of the disease, defined as a maximum of 5 years since the onset of one of the following symptoms associated with MSA: * Parkinsonism * Ataxia * Orthostatic hypotension and/or urinary dysfunction 3. Patients with an anticipated survival of at least 3 years in the opinion of the Investigator. 4. Patients who are able to ambulate without the assistance of another person, defined as the ability to take at least 10 steps and then to turn around and walk at least another 10 steps. Use of assistive devices (e.g., walker or cane) is allowed. 5. Ability to swallow oral medication and be willing to adhere to the study intervention regimen. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pregnant or lactating females. 2. Patients with a clinically-significant or unstable medical or surgical condition other than MSA that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might preclude safe completion of the study or might affect the results of the study (e.g., pulmonary, cardiovascular \[including bradyarrhythmia\], macular edema, and significant renal or hepatic dysfunction). 3. Neurological diseases/disorders other than MSA, such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, essential tremor, progressive supranuclear palsy, spinocerebellar ataxia, spastic paraparesis, corticobasal degeneration, or vascular, normal pressure hydrocephalus, pharmacological, or post-encephalitic parkinsonism. 4. Patients with documented liver diseases or cirrhosis. 5. Positive results at Screening for active viral infections that include positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B core antibody, and hepatitis C virus (HCV). 6. Patients with suicide ideation according to the Investigator's clinical judgment per the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening or who have made a suicide attempt in the 6 months before Screening.
