Neurodegenerative disease: Establishing a clinical trial battery for Huntington disease

Nat Rev Neurol. 2012 Apr 10;8(5):250-1. doi: 10.1038/nrneurol.2012.67.

Abstract

The success of clinical trials in Huntington disease (HD) will depend to a large degree on the quality of the outcome measures. Using data from the TRACK-HD study, a recent publication proposes a battery of assessments that could be used as outcomes in future clinical trials in patients with early HD.
