OTC | NCT03707795 ↗ | Treatment of FUS-Related ALS With Betamethasone - The TRANSLATE Study | Completed | Edward Kasaraskis | Early Phase 1 | 2017-08-21 | By doing this study the investigator hopes to learn more about a potential cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) called "oxidative stress". Oxidative stress is essentially an imbalance between the production of certain chemicals in the body called "free radicals" and the ability of the body to counteract or detoxify their harmful effects through neutralization by antioxidants. It is thought that factors such as environmental exposure (chemicals and lead), diet, smoking,alcohol consumption, physical activity and psychological stress cause oxidative stress to occur inside the body. By doing this study, the investigator hopes to learn whether the FDA-approved steroid medication called Betamethasone will restore overall antioxidant activity fALS patients with mutations in the Fused in Sarcoma gene (FUS gene). Participants who agree to take part in this research study, agree to the following responsibilities: - Attend all scheduled visits - Notify the study doctor of any illnesses, unexpected or troublesome side effects, or any other medical problems that occur during the study - Be completely honest with their answers to all questions - Check with the study doctor before taking any new medications, whether prescribed or "over the counter," even vitamins and herbal supplements. |

NCT00004778 ↗ | Phase III Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Antenatal Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone in Pregnant Women With Threatened Premature Delivery | Completed | Children's Hospital of Philadelphia | Phase 3 | 1993-08-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the effect of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on the severity of initial lung disease and occurrence of chronic lung disease when given antenatally to women with threatened premature delivery. II. Evaluate possible mechanisms for the effects of TRH on the severity and incidence of chronic lung disease. III. Investigate whether a deficiency in endogenous cortisol and/or thyroid hormones after birth influences the severity of lung disease and the development of chronic lung disease. |
NCT00004778 ↗ | Phase III Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Antenatal Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone in Pregnant Women With Threatened Premature Delivery | Completed | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | Phase 3 | 1993-08-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the effect of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on the severity of initial lung disease and occurrence of chronic lung disease when given antenatally to women with threatened premature delivery. II. Evaluate possible mechanisms for the effects of TRH on the severity and incidence of chronic lung disease. III.

NCT00004778 ↗ | Phase III Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Antenatal Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone in Pregnant Women With Threatened Premature Delivery | Completed | National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) | Phase 3 | 1993-08-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the effect of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) on the severity of initial lung disease and occurrence of chronic lung disease when given antenatally to women with threatened premature delivery. II. Evaluate possible mechanisms for the effects of TRH on the severity and incidence of chronic lung disease. III.

NCT00015002 ↗ | Repeat Antenatal Steroids Trial | Terminated | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | Phase 3 | 2000-03-01 | A course of steroids given to a mother who is in labor with a premature fetus will reduce the risk of the premature infant dying or having serious complications. This trial will test whether more than one course of antenatal steroids is more beneficial or risky to the infant than a single course. |
NCT00015002 ↗ | Repeat Antenatal Steroids Trial | Terminated | The George Washington University Biostatistics Center | Phase 3 | 2000-03-01 | A course of steroids given to a mother who is in labor with a premature fetus will reduce the risk of the premature infant dying or having serious complications. This trial will test whether more than one course of antenatal steroids is more beneficial or risky to the infant than a single course. |
