Huntington's disease (HD) is a slowly progressive disorder that devastates the lives of
those affected and their families. There are no treatments that slow the progression of HD,
only mildly effective symptomatic therapies are available.Creatine monohydrate is considered
a nutritional supplement. The purpose of CREST-E is to test whether high-dose creatine can
slow the progressive functional decline that occurs in persons 18 years or older with early
clinical features of HD. The long-term safety, tolerability and effectiveness of up to 40
grams daily creatine compared to placebo is studied. A variety of biological processes are
assessed for markers of disease activity or progression and creatine effects. Up to 50
active research centers globally will enroll 650 subjects.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Male or female ages 18 or older.

- Clinical features of HD AND confirmatory family history of HD; OR Clinical features
of HD AND CAG repeat expansion greater or equal to 36.

- Stage I or II of illness (TFC greater or equal to 7).

- Ambulatory and not requiring skilled nursing care at the time of enrollment.

- Must be capable of providing informed consent and complying with trial procedures.

- Additional inclusion criteria apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

- History of known sensitivity or intolerability to creatine monohydrate.

- Exposure to any investigational drug within 30 days of randomization (Baseline
visit).

- Use of supplemental creatine at a dose greater than 10 grams within 30 days of
randomization (Baseline visit).
