USF Health Department of Neurology’s Clinical Trials

  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis  

    HEALEY ALS Platform Trial - Master Protocol

    - Currently Enrolling

    The HEALEY ALS Platform Trial is a research trial that tests the safety and effectiveness of multiple treatments in ALS. A regimen is a specific course of treatment, each with a different study drug. Multiple different regimens may be active within the platform trial at the same time. If you qualify for the platform trial, you will be randomly assigned to a regimen (one treatment). You will have an equal chance of being assigned to any active regimen. However, if you complete a regimen and then choose to participate in another regimen, you will not be randomized to your first regimen again. Within a regimen, you will have a 3 in 4 chance of being assigned to the active drug group, and a 1 in 4 chance of being assigned to the placebo group.

    A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of IgPro20 in Adults With Dermatomyositis (DM) (RECLAIIM)
    -Enrollment complete
    The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the study drug (IgPro20, which is a mixture of antibodies) is effective in treating Dermatomyositis (DM). IgPro20 is available in the United States, Europe, Switzerland, Canada, Japan, and other countries under the brand name Hizentra® for other diseases. IgPro20 is a research medicine in this phase 3 study because it has not been approved yet to treat DM. Your study participation will include a screening period (for up to 2 months) followed by 15 site visits during a 52-week treatment period. You may receive either subcutaneous IgPro20 or Placebo during participation.
