Clinical trials

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn whether the investigational drug LTX-001 is safe and well tolerated in adults with a diagnosis of schizophrenia who are having a recent worsening of their symptoms (an acute exacerbation). Additional questions it aims to answer are: * how does the amount of the study drug in the body change over time (pharmacokinetics) * how does the study drug affect the symptoms of schizophrenia * how do certain markers in the blood change after administration of LTX-001 (pharmacodynamics) Researchers will compare different dose levels of LTX-001 to an inactive product (placebo) to see what differences there are between the two treatments. After successfully screening for the study, participants will stay in a research unit for about five weeks and return one week later for a follow-up visit.

This study will examine what happens when patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are given an investigational medication (study drug) known as LTX-002. Specifically, the researchers will be looking at safety, tolerability (if someone has any side effects from the drug), pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the study drug) and pharmacodynamics (what the study drug does to the body). The study will also investigate the effect of the drug on indicators of the severity of ALS, such as markers in blood and in the cerebrospinal fluid (the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, CSF) and on measures of the participant's ability to move, speak, and breathe.
