What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a new treatment called AP-101 to see if it is safe and well-tolerated. It focuses on people with familial and sporadic ALS, a condition that affects nerve cells and muscle control. Researchers want to understand how AP-101 moves through the body and its effects on ALS symptoms.

Do I need to stop my current medications for the AP-101 ALS trial?

If you are taking riluzole or edaravone, you must be on a stable dose and are expected to stay on the same dose throughout the study. The protocol does not specify about other medications, so it's best to discuss with the study team.
