Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a severe neuromuscular disease caused by deletion of the SMN1 gene, with the most severe form leading to death in children without treatment. Genetic counselling to detect couples where both partners are carriers is particularly important. In some countries, preconception screening is offered. However, some …
This single-arm pilot study will assess the preliminary effectiveness of an intensive motor skill intervention (HABIT-ILE) combined with functional strength training (FST) in children with SMA who are receiving disease-modifying therapies. Participants will attend a HABIT-ILE + FST summer camp for 6 hours per day over a 3-week period, totaling …
The study objective is to determine the real-world safety and effectiveness of Vesemnogene lantuparvovec for the treatment of SMA. The specific objectives are: To determine clinical effectiveness of Vesemnogene lantuparvovec therapy for SMA as evaluated by developmental gross motor milestone and survival. To describe the safety profile of Vesemnogene therapy …
In this study, researchers will learn more about the effects and safety of BIIB115, also known as salanersen. Specifically, researchers will learn more about how salanersen works in individuals with SMA who are between the ages of 15 and 60 years old. In most people living with SMA, changes to …
Active-NBS is a study to evaluate the muscle development of patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) who are diagnosed at birth. Medicines have become available in the last decade, and many patients are treated very early. Treatments are most effective if used before the patient develops symptoms. However, some patients …
Because no long-term record of prenatal Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) treatment exists, this study will address an important gap in the understanding of the safety and benefit of treatment while in the womb. The registry will help guide best practices for monitoring pregnant women and their fetus with SMA, if …
The primary purpose is to address critical evidence in the treatment landscape for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), specifically focusing on the intrathecal formulation of onasemnogene abeparvovec-brve (ITVISMA®). U.S. Pragmatic Multicenter Study (STREAM).
This is a non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial to investigate the effect of stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) compared to separation surgery followed by SABR in ambulatory patients with malignant epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC). The primary objective of the project is investigating the effect of SABR compared to separation surgery …
Purpose: This phase II clinical trial aims to evaluate the indications, therapeutic effects and side effects of thalidomide in refractory syringomyelia. Primary outcome measure: The primary endpoint is the change of ASIA at week 12. The clinical efficacy is defined as ASIA increase ≥ 1 at week 12, as compared …
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a highly precise, image-guided radiotherapy technique delivering 1-5 high-dose fractions to spinal metastases. Compared with conventional radiotherapy, SBRT enables delivery of a higher biologically effective dose while maintaining high precision. The Institute of Oncology Ljubljana initiated spinal SBRT treatments in 2017 and introduced an institutional …
