Muscular Dystrophies clinical trials at University of California Health

10 in progress, 7 open to eligible people

Showing trials for
  • CAP-1002 in Ambulatory and Non-Ambulatory Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    open to eligible males ages 10 years and up

    HOPE-3 is a two cohort, Phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of a cell therapy called CAP-1002 in study participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and impaired skeletal muscle function. Non-ambulatory and ambulatory boys and young men who meet eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to receive either CAP-1002 or placebo every 3 months for a total of 4 doses during the first 12-months of the study. All participants will be eligible to receive 4 doses of CAP-1002 for an additional 12 months as part of an open-label extended assessment period.

  • AB-1003 (Previously LION-101) in Subjects With Genetic Confirmation of LGMD2I/R9 (Part1)

    open to eligible people ages 18-65

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous infusion of AB-1003 in adults diagnosed with limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9). Participants will be treated in sequential, dose-level cohorts. (Part 1)

  • BrainGate2: Feasibility Study of an Intracortical Neural Interface System for Persons With Tetraplegia

    ““Turn thoughts into action” for people living with paralysis”

    open to eligible people ages 18-80

    The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary device safety information and demonstrate proof of principle (feasibility) of the ability of people with tetraplegia to control a computer cursor and other assistive devices with their thoughts.

  • ECoG BMI for Motor and Speech Control

    open to eligible people ages 21 years and up

    Test the feasibility of using electrocorticography (ECoG) signals to control complex devices for motor and speech control in adults severely affected by neurological disorders.

  • BrainGate2 Neural Interface System in Persons With Tetraplegia (BG-Speech-02)

    open to eligible people ages 18-80

    The goal of this study is to improve our understanding of speech production, and to translate this into medical devices called intracortical brain-computer interfaces (iBCIs) that will enable people who have lost the ability to speak fluently to communicate via a computer just by trying to speak.

  • AOC 1020 in Participants With Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)

    open to eligible people ages 16-70

    A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase 1/2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Exploratory Efficacy of AOC 1020 Administered Intravenously to Participants with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)

    at UCLA UCSD

  • Defining Endpoints in Becker Muscular Dystrophy

    open to eligible males ages 6 years and up

    This is a 24-month, observational study of 50 participants with Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD)

    at UC Irvine

  • Extension of AOC 1001-CS1 (MARINA) Study in Adult Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) Patients

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    AOC 1001-CS2 (MARINA-OLE) is a Phase 2 extension of the AOC 1001-CS1 (MARINA) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of multiple-doses of AOC 1001 Administered Intravenously to Adult Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) patients

    at UCLA

  • AOC 1020 in Adults With Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    A Phase 2 Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate the Long-Term Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of AOC 1020 Administered Intravenously to Adult Participants with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)

    at UCLA UCSD

  • Defining Clinical Endpoints in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy comprise a group of disorders made up of over 30 mutations which share a common phenotype of progressive weakness of the shoulder and hip girdle muscles. While the individual genetic mutations are rare, as a cohort, LGMDs are one of the four most common muscular dystrophies. The overall goal of project 1 is to define the key phenotypes as measured by standard clinical outcome assessments (COAs) for limb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) to hasten therapeutic development.
