Sodium Cromoglicate

Questo articolo riassume gli studi clinici su Sodium Cromoglicate. Le sperimentazioni valutano soprattutto efficacia e sicurezza in persone con sclerosi multipla e sclerosi laterale amiotrofica (ALS). I trial sono di fase 2 e misurano sintomi come la fatica e la funzione fisica.

Trial overview

The available data describe two interventional studies of Sodium Cromoglicate, both in phase 2 and both marked as Authorised.[1][2]

One study is in people with multiple sclerosis, and the other is in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).[1][2]

Multiple sclerosis study

The first trial, 2023-507541-29-00, is titled “Efficacy and safety of cromoglycate as a new symptomatic treatment in patients with multiple sclerosis.”[1]

This study includes 120 participants and compares oral cromoglycic acid with placebo.[1]

The brief summary says the study is evaluating the effect of oral disodium cromoglycate on fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis.[1]

The main outcomes are the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS) at the end of treatment compared with baseline, the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), and the PROMIS-SF-Fatigue measure for fatigue in multiple sclerosis.[1]

ALS study

The second trial, 2025-520688-42-00, is titled “Phase IIB Study of PHENOGENE-1A (Cromolyn) as an Adjuvant Therapy in Mild to Moderate ALS.”[2]

This study includes 155 participants and compares PHENOGENE-1A with a placebo capsule delivered by oral inhalation using a DPI.[2]

The study is designed to evaluate functional changes in people with mild to moderate ALS over a 24-week treatment period.[2]

The primary endpoint is the absolute change in ALSFRS-R total score from baseline to Week 24.[2]

What the endpoints mean

An endpoint is the main result a trial wants to measure.[1][2]

In the multiple sclerosis study, the endpoints focus on fatigue, which means how tired a person feels and how much that tiredness affects daily life.[1]

In the ALS study, the endpoint focuses on function, which means how well a person can carry out everyday activities.[2]

These measures help researchers see whether the study treatment may improve symptoms or daily functioning compared with placebo.[1][2]

Who can participate

The trial data show that the target groups are people with multiple sclerosis and people with mild to moderate ALS.[1][2]

The information provided does not list the full inclusion or exclusion criteria, so the exact participation rules are not shown here.[1][2]

How to read the results

Because both studies are placebo-controlled, the researchers can compare the active treatment with a non-active treatment group.[1][2]

This design helps show whether any change in fatigue or function is likely due to the study treatment rather than chance.[1][2]

The current data are focused on study design, target population, and planned outcomes, not on final results.[1][2]

Glossario

  • Clinical trial: A research study in people that checks whether a treatment is safe, works, or both.
  • Phase 2: A study stage that looks for early signs that a treatment may help and continues to check safety.
  • Placebo: A treatment that does not contain the active study medicine. It is used as a comparison.
  • Multiple sclerosis: A long-term disease that affects the brain and spinal cord and can cause many different symptoms.
  • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS): A disease that affects nerve cells controlling muscles and can lead to weakness over time.
  • Fatigue: A strong feeling of tiredness or low energy that does not improve much with rest.
  • Patient-reported outcome: Information about symptoms or daily life reported directly by the patient.
  • MFIS: Modified Fatigue Impact Scale, a questionnaire that measures how fatigue affects daily life.
  • FSS: Fatigue Severity Scale, a tool used to rate how severe fatigue is.
  • PROMIS-SF-Fatigue: A short questionnaire used to measure fatigue reported by the patient.
  • ALSFRS-R: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale-Revised, a score that measures function in people with ALS.
