About this study

The specific aim of this study is to compare ocular movements abnormalities between males with pre-mutation on FRM1 gene (symptomatic or asymptomatic on the motor plan and/or on the cognitive plan), males without the pre-mutation and males with multi-systematized atrophy, in order to identify the neuronal structures implicated in this pathology.

Read the detailed description

Patient will be followed at the Nantes hospital during half a day for :

  • examination of ocular movements
  • performing Neuro-psychological test (MATTIS)
  • performing tests with scales of motricity (UPDRS, CRST, ICARS).
Being tested
examination of ocular movements, MATTIS test, UPDRS test, CRST test

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • examination of ocular movementsOther

  • MATTIS testOther

  • UPDRS testOther

  • CRST testOther

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparison of the oculo-motricity of patients with FMR1 pre-mutation with the oculo-motricity of patients without FMR1 pre-mutation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Comparison of the oculo-motricity of patients with FMR1 pre-mutation with the oculo-motricity of patients with multi-systematized atrophy

  2. Analysis of the correlation between the genotype (number of CGG repetition) and the phenotype.

  3. For subjects with FMR1 pre-mutation, comparison of the neuro-psychological test results to the oculo-motor abnormalities.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing examination of ocular movements, MATTIS test and UPDRS test in people with Pre-mutation on FMR1 Gene, run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: departure of the principal investigator and nobody else was able to continue this study.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of the oculo-motricity of patients with FMR1 pre-mutation with the oculo-motricity of patients without FMR1 pre-mutation. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Dec 2012.
