Symptomatic Therapy for Patients With Huntington's Disease

Non-randomized Control Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Symptomatic Drug Therapy for Mild to Moderate Huntington's Disease Patients

Based on the previous symptomatic treatment of Chinese HD patients, this study intends to further optimize the treatment regimen of Chinese HD patients so as to further improve the prognosis of patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The purpose of the study is to evaluate symptomatic treatment regimen efficacy based on different disease stages. We previously used symptomatic treatment on Chinese HD patients and most of them got improved both in the motor symptoms and life quality. So this study intends to further optimize the treatment regimen, and set a control group to further evaluate the treatment efficacy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale
Time Frame: Five years
The Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale consist of four subscales, including motor(0-124), MMSE (0-30), psychiatric (0-176), and functional domains(1-13). Four subscale scores are summed to compute a total score. Higher motor and psychiatric scores represent worse outcomes but higher MMSE score and functional scores indicate good outcome.
Five years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Brain MRI
Time Frame: Five years
Brain MRI is used to assess the atrophy of caudate nucleus and cortex in HD patients
Five years
