Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration clinical trials at UCSF
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration is a brain disease that affects personality and speech. UCSF is researching this disease by monitoring patients over time. These studies help gather valuable data to improve understanding and treatment.
ARTFL LEFFTDS Longitudinal Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (ALLFTD)
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
ARTFL LEFFTDS Longitudinal Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (ALLFTD) represents the formalized integration of ARTFL (U54 NS092089; funded through 2019) and LEFFTDS (U01 AG045390; funded through 2019) as a single North American research consortium to study FTLD for 2019 and beyond.
