A multicenter, phase 2, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of dimebon in subjects with Huntington's disease /DIM05
The Huntington Study Group (HSG) is conducting a study of the research medication dimedon in subjects 18 years of age or older who have mild to moderate Huntingon's disease (HD). This study is designed to determine the effect of dimedon on thinking, movement and overall functioning of people with HD. Approximately 15 research centers in the United States and the United Kingdom will enroll up to 90 research subjects. The study will last about three months. The study will enroll research subjects with early to moderate signs of HD who can walk without assistance and who are self-sufficient in activities of daily living (such as eating, dressing and bathing).
