Study Summary

This trial tests a potential treatment for Multiple System Atrophy, to check its safety and effectiveness.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) who show symptoms like parkinsonism, low blood pressure upon standing, bladder issues, and coordination or movement problems. They must have MSA indicators in their biological fluids and MRI scans. People can't join if they can't swallow pills, attend visits, have other major neurological disorders besides MSA, unstable health conditions, or cannot undergo MRI or lumbar puncture.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety and effectiveness of a drug called ATH434 in people diagnosed with Multiple System Atrophy. It aims to see how well this drug works on the condition's symptoms and progression.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of ATH434 are not provided here, common types of side effects from drugs treating neurological conditions may include nausea, dizziness, headache, fatigue or sleep disturbances.
