ALS Research Collaborative study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study is a research collaborative that collects information from people with ALS or their families. It aims to better understand the disease and find markers that could help develop treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You need to be able to read and write in English.
- You must have a diagnosis of ALS or motor neuron disease, or be a known carrier of an ALS-related genetic mutation.
- You should not have significant memory or thinking problems that would prevent you from understanding the study consent form.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), people who might have ALS, and also people related to someone with ALS. It may help researchers better understand ALS and related “motor neuron” conditions, and it involves participation that may include blood tests.
This study follows people with ALS and healthy volunteers over time to understand the disease better. You can join from home using a smartphone or computer.
This study uses a comprehensive analysis platform to better understand ALS (and related conditions) and help find ways to “remedy and eliminate” it. If you have ALS or are a healthy control who can safely complete questionnaires and possibly an MRI, you may be able to contribute data that researchers use to improve care.
This study looks at complex brain and body changes in people with ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), or related disorders. If you have one of these diagnoses—or a known gene mutation that can cause ALS/FTD—you may be able to help researchers learn how the conditions progress.
This study looks at people affected by ALS (a nerve disease) and, in some cases, family members who may be at genetic risk. It may help researchers better understand ALS and related conditions and improve how they’re studied.
This study is for adults who have a strong family history of ALS or FTD (like a parent or sibling with the disease) to help researchers understand how to prevent these conditions. It involves following you for about a year to track your health.
