Neuropathy clinical trials at University of California Health

17 in progress, 12 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • DB-OTO, an Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) Based Gene Therapy, in Children/Infants With Hearing Loss Due to Otoferlin Mutations

    open to eligible people ages up to 17 years

    Regeneron is conducting a study of an investigational new drug called DB-OTO. DB-OTO is a gene therapy that is being developed to treat children who have hearing loss due to changes in the otoferlin gene. The purpose of this study is to: - Learn about the safety of DB-OTO - Determine how well DB-OTO is tolerated (does not cause ongoing discomfort) - Evaluate the efficacy of DB-OTO (how well DB-OTO works)

  • Cryoneurolysis for Painful Diabetic Neuropathy of the Foot

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The study is a single-center, randomized, participant- and observer-masked, human-subjects, post-market clinical pilot study to investigate the use of ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoneurolysis to treat diabetic neuropathy of the foot. A prolonged nerve block may be provided by freezing the nerve using a technique called "cryoneurolysis". With cryoneurolysis and ultrasound machines, a small needle-like "probe" may be placed through anesthetized skin and guided to the target nerve to allow freezing. The procedure takes about 6 minutes for each nerve, involves little discomfort, has no systemic side effects, and cannot be misused or become addictive. Participants will be randomly allocated to one of two possible treatments groups: cryoneurolysis (experimental) or sham (control). The primary outcome measure is the change in pain on the neuropathic pain scale from baseline 1 month following the procedure.

  • EPPIC-Net: Novaremed Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy ISA

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the current hard gelatin capsule formulation of NRD135S.E1 80 mg once daily in the treatment of PDPN when administered for 13 weeks.

  • EPPIC-Net: Platform Protocol to Assess Treatments for Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This is a Platform Protocol to perform Phase II clinical trials in The Early Phase Pain Investigation Clinical Network (EPPIC-Net), under The Helping to End Addiction Long-termSM Initiative, or NIH HEAL InitiativeSM, related to the treatment of Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (PDPN) in a platform setting to test multiple assets under a single protocol.

  • Finding an Effective Dose of GM1 to Reduce or Prevent Neuropathy (Numbness or Weakness) Due to Treatment With Paclitaxel (Phase II)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This phase II trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (GM1) and whether it works in reducing or preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in patients with breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) who are receiving treatment with paclitaxel. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Exposure to chemotherapy drugs like paclitaxel may cause a side effect called CIPN, which is a condition of weakness, numbness, and pain from nerve damage (usually in the hands and feet). GM1 is a part of the body's natural system that insulates nerves and helps to protect nerves from damage. Giving GM1 may help reduce or prevent CIPN in breast cancer patients receiving treatment with paclitaxel.

  • Tart Cherry Juice as a Dietary Supplement for the Prevention of Paclitaxel-Induced Neuropathy

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This is a single institution phase II randomized study evaluating the potential benefits of a supplement, tart cherry juice at high- versus low-doses, to prevent taxane induced peripheral neuropathy in breast and ovarian cancer patients undergoing paclitaxel chemotherapy. Eligible participants enrolled onto the study will be block randomized in a 1:1 allocation to either the tart cherry juice high-dose group (Arm 1) or the tart cherry juice low-dose group (Arm 2).

  • Long-Chain Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders In-Clinic Disease Monitoring Program

    open to all eligible people

    The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety, including pregnancy, infant, and lactation outcomes, of patients with LC-FAOD who are enrolled in the DMP.

  • North American Mitochondrial Disease Consortium Patient Registry and Biorepository (NAMDC)

    open to all eligible people

    The North American Mitochondrial Disease Consortium (NAMDC) maintains a patient contact registry and tissue biorepository for patients with mitochondrial disorders.

  • Myelin Disorders Biorepository Project

    open to all eligible people

    The Myelin Disorders Biorepository Project (MDBP) seeks to collect and analyze clinical data and biological samples from leukodystrophy patients worldwide to support ongoing and future research projects. The MDBP is one of the world's largest leukodystrophy biorepositories, having enrolled nearly 2,000 affected individuals since it was launched over a decade ago. Researchers working in the biorepository hope to use these materials to uncover new genetic etiologies for various leukodystrophies, develop biomarkers for use in future clinical trials, and better understand the natural history of these disorders. The knowledge gained from these efforts may help improve the diagnostic tools and treatment options available to patients in the future.

  • Laryngopharyngeal Sensation: Cancer Survivor Cohort

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    A previous study completed in 2022 (NCT05158179) was conducted using cohorts of healthy controls, and adults with general laryngopharyngeal disorders. This study will expand on the previous research to include a separate cohort of adults being seen in clinic for an existing laryngopharyngeal disorder resulting from previous radiation or other cancer treatments.

  • BXQ-350 in Newly Diagnosed Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The study will assess the safety and efficacy of BXQ-350 plus modified FOLFOX7 (mFOLFOX7) and bevacizumab in participants who have newly diagnosed metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon/rectum. The study will also evaluate if the administration of BXQ-350 with mFOLFOX7 and bevacizumab may diminish oxaliplatin induced sensory neurotoxicity, enabling participants to receive the total and planned doses of mFOLFOX7. All participants will receive BXQ-350 by intravenous (IV) infusion along with standard of care doses of mFOLFOX and bevacizumab. The study is divided into two stages: Stage 1 will be open label and will enroll participants at increasing dose levels of BXQ-350 in order to determine the Stage 2 dose. Stage 2 will be blinded; participants will receive BXQ-350 at the established Stage 1 dose or placebo.

  • Duloxetine to Prevent Oxaliplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients with Stage II-III Colorectal Cancer

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This phase II/III trial studies the best dose of duloxetine and how well it works in preventing pain, tingling, and numbness (peripheral neuropathy) caused by treatment with oxaliplatin in patients with stage II-III colorectal cancer. Duloxetine increases the amount of certain chemicals in the brain that help relieve depression and pain. Giving duloxetine in patients undergoing treatment with oxaliplatin for colorectal cancer may help prevent peripheral neuropathy.
