Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • ALSFRS-R scores

    Changes in ALSFRS-R scores from baseline after 48 weeks of treatment, The ALSFRS-R scale (ALS Functional Rating Scale) includes 12 items including medulla oblongata function, limb function and respiratory function, with a total score of 48. The lower the score, the more serious the neurological function damage.

    48 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • FVC%

    48 weeks

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Meet the Western diagnostic criteria for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (clinically confirmed ALS, clinically likely ALS or clinically likely ALS- laboratory support);
  • The score of the modified amyotrophic lateral sclerosis function scale (ALSFRS-R) was ≥2 points for each item (among which dyspnea, sitting breathing and respiratory insufficiency were all 4 points);
