Muscular Dystrophies clinical trials at UC Davis

3 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Deramiocel (CAP-1002) in Ambulatory and Non-Ambulatory Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    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 deramiocel (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 deramiocel 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 deramiocel for an additional 12 months as part of an open-label extended assessment period. After completion of the first open-label extension (Months 12-24), subjects who have completed Month 24 are eligible to continue onto a Long-Term Open-Label Extension period that will provide treatment with deramiocel until commercial availability, or until sponsor's decision to terminate the trial, or the participant withdraws consent.
