The highway towards a cure

The CARDINALS clinical research study is evaluating a study drug (Utreloxastat) to see if it can help slow ALS symptoms. Researchers will also test the safety and tolerability of the study drug and how the body responds to it. The study drug is a liquid that is swallowed 2 times a day.

In this study we investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics markers and pharmacokinetics (how a drug is absorbed and excreted) of AP-101 in patients with familial and sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Currently, we are only looking for patients with familial ALS (caused by a SOD1 gene mutation) to participate in the study. This study is sponsored by AL-S Pharma.

Biogen is conducting a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety and of an investigational drug for adults who do not have any clinical signs or symptoms of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) (that definitely indicate the onset of ALS) but do carry a certain superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene variant.

In this study we investigate the safety and efficacy of the study drug ‘ION363’ for the treatment of ALS caused by mutations in the FUS gene. About 1% to 5% of ALS cases are caused by FUS mutations.

Amylyx Pharmaceuticals Inc is conducting a phase 3 trial to determine the safety and efficacy of their compound 'AMX0035' for the treatment of ALS.

Ferrer is conducting a phase 3 trial to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of an investigational drug for people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

This trial will evaluate the efficacy of tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) as add-on treatment for people with ALS.
