Current Trial
Guanabenz trial for VWM
The Amsterdam Leukodystrophy Center at the Amsterdam University Medical Centers (Amsterdam UMC) is conducting a clinical trial in children with Vanishing White Matter (VWM). In this trial, they want to evaluate whether a drug called Guanabenz is effective in slowing progression, stabilizing, or even improving the brain white matter abnormalities in VWM. Guanabenz is an old and well-known medicine that has been used for decades for the treatment of high blood pressure. It has been approved by the FDA, the American medicines agency.
