Trial overview
The source data includes two Phase 3 clinical trials of Ursodoxicoltaurine, both listed as completed.[1][2]
These studies looked at adults with serious nervous system diseases: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).[1][2]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis study
The ALS trial was NCT05021536, titled “A study to investigate the safety and efficacy of AMX0035 in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.”[1]
It was an interventional study, which means the researchers gave a study treatment and then measured the results.[1]
The study enrolled 664 people and compared AMX0035 with a placebo that matched the treatment.[1]
The main goal was to assess disease progression over 48 weeks in adult patients with ALS.[1]
Progressive supranuclear palsy study
The PSP trial was NCT06122662, titled “AMX0035 and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.”[2]
This was also an interventional Phase 3 study, and it enrolled 910 participants.[2]
The study compared AMX0035 with a placebo matching AMX0035 to see whether it could change the rate of disease progression in PSP.[2]
The trial used the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale, called PSPRS, as the main way to measure change over time.[2]
Study design and comparison groups
Both trials used a placebo comparison, which helps researchers tell whether changes are likely due to the study treatment rather than chance.[1][2]
In the ALS study, the intervention list included AMX0035 as an oral product and a matching placebo oral powder in sachet form.[1]
In the PSP study, the intervention list included AMX0035 taken orally and a matching placebo.[2]
These details show that the trials were designed to compare outcomes between a treatment group and a control group in a fair way.[1][2]
Main outcomes measured
The primary outcome in the ALS study was change from baseline in the ALSFRS-R total score at Week 48, with adjustment for mortality.[1]
ALSFRS-R is a rating scale used to track daily function in people with ALS, so a change in this score helps show whether the disease is getting worse or staying more stable.[1]
The primary outcome in the PSP study was change from baseline in the total PSPRS score at Week 52.[2]
The source data also notes that different regional versions of the PSPRS endpoint were used to meet evidentiary requirements in the United States and outside the United States.[2]
In simple terms, the study team chose the main score used for analysis based on where the data were intended to support evidence requirements.[2]
Who participated
The ALS study included adult patients with ALS.[1]
The PSP study included people with progressive supranuclear palsy.[2]
The source data does not provide more detailed eligibility rules, such as age limits beyond adulthood or specific health requirements for joining the studies.[1][2]
What the trial data can tell patients
These trials were designed to test whether Ursodoxicoltaurine could help slow the worsening of ALS or PSP compared with placebo.[1][2]
Because both studies are listed as completed, the main research question has already been tested in these trial settings.[1][2]
The source data provided here focuses on study design, target diseases, and outcome measures, not on detailed trial results.[1][2]
