Summary
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of arimoclomol in amyotropic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria

- 18 months or less since first appearance of weakness (e.g. limb weakness, dysarthria, dysphagia, shortness of breath)
- ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) equal to or above 35 and erect (seated) Slow Vital Capacity (SVC) % predicted equal to or above 70% at Screening
Exclusion Criteria

- Pregnant or breast-feeding
- Current or anticipated use of diaphragmatic pacing
- Any other relevant medically significant condition which could present risk to the subject or interfere with the assessment of safety or has an increased risk of causing death during the trial
