SYNAPSE-CMT Clinical Trial

What is the SYNAPSE-CMT Clinical Trial?

CMTA-STAR Alliance Partner NMD Pharma has recently started screening and enrolling patients in the SYNAPSE-CMT Phase II trial. This trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and potential effectiveness of an investigational medication, NMD670.

NMD670 is a novel medication that works by enhancing communication between nerves and muscles, a common issue for people living with CMT. The hope is that this treatment will improve your strength, endurance, and overall daily functioning. By joining the study, you’ll play a critical role in determining whether this therapy could help others with CMT in the future.
