It aims to make ALS research accessible to everyone, including those who cannot visit academic medical centers, through new technology that allows remote participation. We are looking for people currently living with ALS, individuals who do not have ALS, are not known ALS gene carriers, or at risk of carrying an ALS causative gene to help researchers gain a deeper understanding of ALS and improve future clinical trials.<\/p>\n<p>Participation will consist of in-person and\/or remote visits where clinical data such as blood samples and cerebrospinal fluid (optional) will be collected. Participants will also complete speech tasks and questionnaires via our online portal.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about the ALL ALS study here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.all-als.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.all-als.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Participant Eligibility<\/h3>\n<p>Who can participate in the ASSESS study?<\/p>\n<p>Individuals currently living with ALS<\/p>\n<p>Control participants including:<br \/>\n&#8211; Individuals without ALS or known ALS gene mutations<br \/>\n&#8211; Spouses or family members of ALS patients who tested negative for ALS gene mutations<br \/>\n&#8211; General population or others encountered at ALS sites<br \/>\n&#8211; Must not be at risk of carrying a causative ALS gene mutation<\/p>\n<h3>Contact<\/h3>\n<p>Lila Brisk<br \/>\n(206) 543-0454<\/p>\n<div class=\"box \">\n<h3 class=\"dets\">Additional Study Details<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"st\"><strong>Full Study Title<\/strong><br \/>\nASSESS ALL ALS study<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lhalf sid\"><strong>Study ID:<\/strong> 2024P001132<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhalf ctlink\"><strong>ClinicalTrials.gov Link:<\/strong> <a class=\"link-outbound\" href=\"https:\/\/clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/record\/NCT06578195\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NCT06578195<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"lhalf start\"><strong>Start Date:<\/strong> 08\/27\/2024<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhalf end\"><strong>End Date:<\/strong> 12\/31\/2026<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"pi\"><strong>Investigator(s)<\/strong><br \/>\nMichael Weiss, MD (Principal Investigator)<br \/>\nJane Distad, MD<br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"healthy\"><strong>Accepts Healthy Volunteers?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"ssites\">Study Site(s)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"lhalf site1\">\n<h4>University of Washington Medical Center &#8211; Montlake<\/h4>\n<p>1959 NE Pacific St, Seattle, WA 98195<br \/>\nSeattle, Washington 98195<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rhalf site2\">\n<h4><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p><\/div>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] The ASSESS study combines a longitudinal natural history study and biomarker collection for ALS.
