NCT01962311

Brief Summary

This project is expected to answer the question of interest assays of metabolites in the CSF as a tool for early diagnosis and should show whether it is possible or not to use such markers in the blood or urine. These studies should also help shed light on the pathophysiological original early clinical disease. While ALS appears to be more a clinical syndrome that pathophysiological entity unique metabolic abnormalities identified could help identify mechanisms disrupted in which therapeutic interventions will be possible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Diagnostic markers studied are metabolites of cerebrospinal fluid, blood and urine measured by three complementary analytical methods

    diagnostic criteria Diagnostic markers studied are metabolites of cerebrospinal fluid, blood and urine measured by three complementary analytical methods: GC / MS, LC / MSMS and proton NMR spectroscopy. These metabolites, the number of one hundred, can be grouped into four main groups: molecules of metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, steroids
