CNGB1 and Allied Disorders
Recruiting
Mutations in the rod-expressed gene, cyclic nucleotide-gated channel beta subunit (CNGB1) and associated inborn errors in metabolism are causes of retinal disease that causes progressive loss of vision. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a major cause of untreatable blindness associated with CNGB1 (CNGB1-RP). RP involves the death of photoreceptor cells that can be caused by mutations in a number of different genes. Treatment by gene therapy could prevent blindness in cases of inherited retinal dystro...

A Study to Assess Safety and Effectiveness of Elafibranor in Adult Participants With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis.
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the effects of elafibranor (the study drug) in participants with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). PSC is a rare disease of the liver that leads to injury and destruction of bile ducts. Damage to bile ducts leads to buildup of bile in the liver, which then causes further damage, and leads to disease progression. This study will compare elafibranor to a placebo, a dummy treatment. The main objective of the trial will be to study the safety and side effects of the stud... Read More
