This study examines NAD replenishment therapy using Nicotinamide Riboside compared with placebo in atypical parkinsonism conditions such as PSP, MSA, and CBS. It enrolls patients aged 30 to 85 who meet the criteria for one of these diagnoses. The study is being conducted in Phase 2 and is currently recruiting participants.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Participant must understand the nature of the study and be able to provide written, informed consent. 2. Male or female aged 30-85 years at baseline. 3. 123I-Ioflupane dopamine transporter imaging (DaTSCAN) or FDOPA- PET has been performed. A negative DaTSCAN cannot be more than two years old at baseline. 4. Meet the MDS criteria for possible or probable PSP; or 5. Meet the MDS criteria for clinically possible or probable MSA; or 6. Meet the consensus criteria for probable or possible CBS. 7. A baseline PSPRS score of \<40 for PSP, or baseline UMSARS score \< 3 on items: 1, 2, 7-9. 8. Score ≥ 20 on the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at screening. 9. Able to ambulate independently or with assistance defined as the ability to take at least 5 steps with a walker (guarding is allowed provided there is no contact) or the ability to take at least 5 steps with the assistance of another person who can only have contact with one upper extremity. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Insufficient fluency in local language to complete neuropsychological and functional assessments. 2. Evidence of differential diagnoses to PSP, MSA or CBS including: PD; dementia with Lewy bodies; Alzheimer's disease; motor neuron disease; history of repeated and/or major stroke; history of repeated and/or severe brain or spinal cord; history of neuroleptic use (except quetiapine) for prolonged period within the last 6 months; history of severe encephalitis; street drug-related parkinsonism; vascular parkinsonism; familial PSP, FTD, or known pathogenic MAPT mutation; prion disease; other neurological disease or MRI findings that could explain the PSP, MSA or CBS symptoms. 3. Presence of other significant neurological or psychiatric disorders including (but not limited to) psychotic disorders; severe bipolar or unipolar depression; seizure disorder; tumor or other space-occupying lesion. 4. Treatment with/use of NR or any investigational drugs or device, within 90 days of screening. 5. A history of alcohol or substance abuse within 1 year prior to baseline (Visit 1) and deemed to be clinically significant by the site investigator 6. Any active neoplastic malignancy (other than non-metastatic dermatological conditions) within two years of the screening visit (Visit 0) or current clinically significant hematological, endocrine, cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, or neurological disease. Active neoplastic malignancy is defined as having a known malignant focus and/or receiving anti-cancer treatment. For the non-cancer conditions, if the condition has been stable for at least the one year before the screening visit (Visit 0) and/or is judged by the site investigator not to interfere with the subject's participation in the study, the subject may be included. 7. Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at screening that cannot be corrected to baseline and that is deemed incompatible with study participation by investigator. 8. History of deep brain stimulator surgery other than sham surgery for deep brain stimulation (DBS) clinical trial. 9. History of a clinically significant medical condition that would interfere with the subject's ability to comply with study instructions, would place the subject at increased risk, or might confound the interpretation of the study results. 10. Severe dysphagia with inability to swallow study-drug safely at baseline.
