Innovative Imaging and Cognitive BIOmarkers to Predict Huntington's Disease Progression

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Intro Huntington's disease (HD) patients suffer from motor, cognitive and behavioral impairments, with heterogeneous phenotypes and variable time course. This leads to a high variance of HD markers, none of which is currently sensitive enough to 1) measure disease progression from small cohort data, 2) predict disease entry in carriers of the HD mutation (during the prodromal phase or in patients considered asymptomatic: pre-HD patients), and 3) measure a significant evolution of the state of pre-HD patients over a time window compatible with the realization of clinical trials (about 2/3 years). Moreover, the markers of HD do not allow a fine stratification of the patients. Hypothesis/Objective Our objectives are 1) to evaluate the sensitivity of new markers and assessment tools for symptomatic (HD) and presymptomatic (pre-HD) patients, 2) to define a model of disease progression, and 3) to establish an enrichment strategy to improve patient selection for future therapeutic trials. Method We will evaluate newly developed cognitive tests, multimodal imaging techniques, biological markers and use innovative statistical approaches. We will follow 60 patients with the mutation responsible for MH (40 presymptomatic pre-MH patients, 20 symptomatic MH patients) and 20 healthy volunteers (controls) over a 24-month period.

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Catheters with metal components (Swan-Ganz catheter), metal fragments such as bullets, shotgun pellets and metal shrapnel, cerebral artery aneurysm clips, magnetic dental implants, tissue expander, artificial limb, hearing aid, piercing such as pacemaker,
  • Person participating or having participated in an interventional study for less than 3 months or without time limit in a trial of neural transplants or gene therapy.

Other illness

  • Neurological or psychiatric disorder unrelated to HD
  • Intercurrent illness that may impact participant's performance
  • Chronic progressive neurological disease
  • Pacemaker, intracorporeal metal, intracerebral clip, any metallic foreign body: implantable cardiac electronic device such as pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators etc., metallic intraocular foreign bodies, implantable neurostimulation systems, cochlear implants/ear implants, drug infusion pumps (insulin administration, analgesic drugs), or chemotherapy pumps): if possible, the patient should remove the device.
  • Known hypersensitivity to the radiopharmaceutical preparation (excipients in the radiopharmaceutical preparation)
  • Neurological or psychiatric disorder unrelated to HD
  • Intercurrent disease that may impact participant's performance
  • Chronic progressive neurological disease

Other

  • Participant under guardianship or curatorship
  • Claustrophobia
  • Brain injury unrelated to HD
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding woman
  • Person under state medical aid
  • Person deprived of liberty
  • Person participating or having participated in a research protocol with a radiopharmaceutical injection for less than 12 months.
  • Claustrophobia
  • Brain injury unrelated to HD
  • Pacemaker, intracorporeal metal, intracerebral clip
