Testing an oral extract for spinocerebellar ataxia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an oral extract from a mushroom called Antrodia cinnamomea can help improve symptoms in people with spinocerebellar ataxia (a condition that affects coordination and balance). Participants must be able to communicate in Chinese.

This study is a registry that collects information from adults with certain types of inherited ataxia caused by specific genetic diagnoses. It may help doctors better understand these conditions and support future research.
This trial looks for eye problems in people with certain genetic forms of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, or SCA27B). You have to be between 18 and 80 years old and have a specific genetic mutation. You can join if you already have symptoms or if you are at risk but do not have symptoms yet.
This is an observational study that follows people with cerebellar ataxia, their relatives, and healthy volunteers to learn more about the condition. It may help researchers better understand the causes and patterns of cerebellar ataxia over time.
This Phase 2 study tests an umbilical cord “stem cell” treatment to improve symptoms in people with spinocerebellar ataxia (a nerve condition that affects balance and walking). It may help walking ability and overall ataxia symptoms, but you must meet specific health and lab safety checks.
This study follows people with certain types of spinocerebellar ataxia (a group of conditions that cause progressive movement problems) to understand how the disease changes over time and how genes might influence it. It may help researchers learn more about these conditions and support future treatments.
This trial tests whether a traditional Chinese medicine made from Cordyceps cicadae can help people with ALS who have high levels of certain fats (sphingolipids) in their blood. It may offer a new treatment option for those diagnosed recently.
