The city of Irvine, California, currently has 2 active clinical trials seeking participants for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis research studies.
Clinical Procedures to Support Research in ALS
Recruiting
The purpose of the Clinical Procedures To Support Research (CAPTURE) study is to utilize information collected in the medical record to learn more about a disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and related disorders.

Intermuscular Coherence as a Biomarker for ALS
Recruiting
The specific aims of this study are to: Determine if a painless and quick measurement of muscle activity using surface electrodes can help with the diagnosis of ALS. Specifically, we ask if a measure of intermuscular coherence (IMC-βγ), when added to current diagnostic criteria (Awaji criteria), can differentiate ALS from mimic diseases more accurately and earlier than currently possible. Characterize IMC-βγ in neurotypical subjects by age, sex, race, and ethnicity. Follow a cohort of ALS patie... Read More
