Update on Dystonia, Mov Disord 2013;28:863-73 • Dystonia is defined as a movement disorder characterized Chorea, and Tics by sustained or intermittent muscle contractions causing abnormal, often repetitive, movements, postures, or both. Joseph Jankovic, MD • Dystonic movements are typically patterned and twisting. Professor of Neurology, Distinguished Chair in Movement Disorders, • Dystonia is often initiated or worsened by voluntary action Director, Parkinson's Disease Center and Movement Disorders Clinic, and associated with overflow muscle activation. Department of Neurology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas • Some forms of dystonia, such as blepharospasm and laryngeal dystonia, are not associated with postures, but are characterized by focal involuntary contractions that interfere with physiological opening or closing of the eyelids or the larynx. • Dystonia is classified along two axes: 1. Clinical characteristics, including age at onset, body distribution, temporal pattern and associated features (additional movement disorders or neurological features) 2. Etiology, which includes nervous system pathology and inheritance. The prevalence of primary dystonia: A systematic review and meta‐analysis Steeves et al.

  • Pridopidine in Huntington Disease Pridopidine Is Currently in Development for Huntington Disease (HD)
    Pridopidine in Huntington Disease Pridopidine is currently in development for Huntington disease (HD). Multiple clinical studies have been conducted providing important understanding about safety, mechanism of action, and efficacy. HD is a rare, inherited, chronically progressive and ultimately fatal brain disease. The disease typically starts between the ages of 30 to 50, and causes loss of physical, mental, and emotional abilities. Key symptoms of HD include: • Personality changes, mood swings, and depression (including increased suicidal ideation), • Forgetfulness and impaired judgment, • Unsteady gait and involuntary movements (chorea), and • Slurred speech, difficulty in swallowing, and significant weight loss Originally, pridopidine was thought to exert its effects by modifying dopamine signaling through dopamine receptors. Dopamine is a chemical (neurotransmitter) produced in the brain important for regulating movement. Therefore, prior trials with pridopidine in HD were designed to assess primarily the effect of pridopidine on motor symptoms (like slow and/or abnormal movements). The PRIDE-HD study was originally designed as a 26-week, phase 2, randomized, placebo- controlled clinical trial evaluating four different doses (between 45.0–112.5 mg twice a day) of pridopidine for the treatment of Huntington disease. The four different and increasing doses were planned because for dopamine modulators, higher doses were expected to be more efficacious. While the PRIDE-HD trial was ongoing, new research showed that the effect of pridopidine was not mediated by the dopamine receptor but rather via activation of the Sigma-1 receptor (S1R). The S1R is a protein expressed at high levels in the brain and in motor neurons of the spinal cord.

David Hume, A Treatise of Human Nature Comparative in vivo pharmacology of dopidines Susanna Holm Waters Department of Pharmacology, Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology Sahlgrenska Academy at University of Gothenburg Göteborg, Sweden ABSTRACT Dopidines are a novel class of dopamine (DA) modulating compounds, developed to provide improved treatment of a range of neurodegenerative and psychiatric disorders that are currently managed to a large extent with anti- dopaminergic medications. The overall aim of the present work was to investigate the in vivo pharmacology of dopidines, as compared to other classes of monoamine modulating compounds. A further aim was to explore the long term effects of antidopaminergic medication in Huntington’s disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor, behavioural, and cognitive symptoms. Data from REGISTRY, an observational study on patients with HD, were analysed by means of principal component analysis, bivariate regression, and multiple regression, to assess the potential impact of antidopaminergic medications on motor and functional outcomes.

  • Profile of Pridopidine and Its Potential in the Treatment of Huntington Disease: the Evidence to Date
    Journal name: Drug Design, Development and Therapy Article Designation: Commentary Year: 2015 Volume: 9 Drug Design, Development and Therapy Dovepress Running head verso: Squitieri and de Yebenes Running head recto: Pridopidine treatment of Huntington disease open access to scientific and medical research DOI: 65738 Open Access Full Text Article COMMENTARY Profile of pridopidine and its potential in the treatment of Huntington disease: the evidence to date Ferdinando Squitieri1 Abstract: Huntington disease (HD) is a chronic, genetic, neurodegenerative disease for Justo Garcia de Yebenes2 which there is no cure. The main symptoms of HD are abnormal involuntary movements (chorea and dystonia), impaired voluntary movements (ie, incoordination and gait balance), 1IRCCS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza, San Giovanni Rotondo and Mendel progressive cognitive decline, and psychiatric disturbances. HD is caused by a CAG-repeat Institute of Human Genetics, Rome, expanded mutation in the HTT gene, which encodes the huntingtin protein. The inherited Italy; 2Fundación para Investigaciones Neurológicas, Madrid, Spain mutation results in the production of an elongated polyQ mutant huntingtin protein (mHtt). The cellular functions of the Htt protein are not yet fully understood, but the functions of its mutant variant are thought to include alteration of gene transcription and energy production, and dysregulation of neurotransmitter metabolism, receptors, and growth factors.

Recent clinical trials have highlighted the potential of pridopidine for symptomatic treatment of patients with HD.
