Overview

This registry study aims to collect data on the provision of assistive devices, medicines, and other healthcare measures, such as ventilation therapy and nutrition support, in patients with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and other neurological disorders. The data collected should describe the clinical practice, meaning real-world evidence and patient-reported outcomes.

Description

This registry study aims to collect data on the provision of assistive devices, medicines, and other healthcare measures, such as ventilation therapy and nutrition support, in patients with ALS, SMA and other neurological disorders. The data collected should describe the clinical practice, meaning real-world evidence and patient-reported outcomes. The collected data include clinical characteristics, medical history, assessment scales, such as ALS functional rating scale-revised (ALSFRS-R), prognosis indicators, such as ALS progression rate, biomarker data, such as serum Neurofilament light chain (sNfL), genetic data, such as the mutation status of SOD1, FUS, c9orf72, TARDBP in ALS, SMN1 in SMA patients, innovative drugs such as Tofersen, Nusinersen, Risdiplam, as well as symptomatic drugs, patient-reported outcome data being captured using questionnaires and established clinical scales on medication expectation and treatment satisfaction.
