简要总结

This study aims to evaluate the role of single-dose 4-aminopyridine on the diagnosis of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) paralysis. In addition, the investigational treatment will be used to test the hypothesis that 4-aminopyridine can speed the determination of nerve continuity after RLN injuries.

入选标准

  • Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve injury (including acute unilateral, and bilateral vocal cord paralysis) following trauma, surgery or intubation
  • Closed soft tissue envelope obscuring direct observation of the continuity of the affected nerve
  • Cognitive ability to report sensory and motor deficit during examination
  • Able to complete single day dosing within 4 months of the inciting event
  • Eligible for standard of care plan of monitoring
  • Adults subject aged 18+
  • Availability for main trial day within 1 week of diagnosis and follow-up visits as needed

排除标准

  • History of multiple sclerosis, stroke or any other diagnosed neurological or central nervous system disorder or injury
  • History of intercranial surgery
  • History of hypersensitivity to AMPYRA® or 4-aminopyridine
  • Current use of aminopyridine medications, including other compounded 4-AP, e.g. fampridine, dalfampridine
  • Patients with known history of renal impairment (calculated GFR (GFR<80 mL/min)) within 6 months time
  • Patients with a known history of a seizure disorder (4-AP overdose can, in selected cases, result in limited seizure activity).
  • Patients unable to communicate return or loss of sensation.
  • Patients with injuries too extensive to isolate a single nerve(s) for testing.
  • Patients currently taking organic cat-ion transporter 2 (OCT2) inhibitors, e.g. Cimetidine, dolutegravir, isavuconazole, ranolazine.
  • Patients who had a direct transection or sacrifice of the nerve
  • Patients who are pregnant
  • History of direct laryngeal trauma
  • Intolerance of exam or study procedures
  • Inability to visualize the larynx upon scope exam
  • Procedural or other pharmacological treatments of RLN paralysis prior to enrollment

研究组 & 干预措施
