STRIDES Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it is safe and effective for treating adults with spinocerebellar ataxia, a degenerative neurological disorder.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-75 with a clinical diagnosis of Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 3 (SCA3), confirmed genetically, and an m-SARA score ≥4 can join. Participants must have stable medication use for the past month, a BMI between 18-35 kg/m2, and agree to contraception guidelines. Exclusions include diabetes treatment, chronic liver disease or infections like HIV/Hepatitis B/C, recent drug/alcohol abuse, other medical conditions that could affect results or pose risks.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The STRIDES study is testing SLS-005 (trehalose injection) against a placebo in adults with spinocerebellar ataxia. This Phase 2b/3 trial randomly assigns participants to either the investigational drug or placebo group in equal numbers without them knowing which one they're getting to measure its safety and effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, potential side effects may include reactions related to intravenous infusions such as discomfort at the injection site, allergic reactions, and systemic responses depending on how the body tolerates trehalose.
