A Long-term Safety Study in Brazilian Patients With a Diagnosis of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Treated With Zolgensma
A long-term safety study in Brazilian patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) treated with Onasemnogene Abeparvovec (Zolgensma®)
Exploring the Physiologic, Pharmacodynamic, and Clinical Responses of Skeletal Muscle in Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy Treated With SMN-Directed Therapies
In this observational study, researchers are looking at the effects of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) drugs on the muscles and nerve cells in patients with SMA. Primary Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and reliability of performing MR functional imaging in exercising muscle in patients with SMA. To evaluate patients with …
Digital Assessment of Speech and Fine Motor Control in ALS
This is a single-session, case-control study that incorporates digital tools for assessing speech and motor function in motor neuron disease. Patients with motor neuron disease (including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), primary lateral sclerosis (PLS), and progressive muscular atrophy (PMA)) and age-matched healthy controls will be enrolled. Subjects will complete a …
Investigating NMJ Defects in SMA Following Central and Peripheral SMN Restoration
This is an observational study to investigate the improvement of NMJ defects in adult patients with SMA following treatment with Risdiplam. Eligible patients will have received treatment with daily oral Risdiplam after receiving approval through their commercial insurance or drug assistance program. All subjects will be evaluated at one visit. …
Long Term Trajectories of SMA Patients Receiving or Not Disease-modifying Treatments
This is an observational multicenter retrospective and prospective study on natural history of SMA also considering the 'new natural history' secondary to the availability of commercially available therapies. All the patients enrolled to date in the Italian registry, if not part of clinical trials, will be included in the present …
Characterizing Perceived Physical Fatigability in Nusinersen-treated SMA
The purpose of this project is to investigate the utility of the SMA EFFORT, an SMA-specific patient-reported outcome measure, to assess perceived physical fatigability that is anchored to intensity and duration of activities. We aim to characterize perceived physical fatigability (PPF) in a diverse cohort of people with SMA (pwSMA) …
A Review of the Management and Outcomes of Children With SMA in the West Midlands During 2017-2022
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a rare neuromuscular condition, characterised by loss of motor neurons as a result of a mutation in the survival motor neuron gene. This results in muscle wasting and in the most common and severe type, death before 24 months. Over the recent years there has …
Comprehensive Analysis Platform To Understand, Remedy and Eliminate ALS
CAPTURE ALS is a long-term data and biorepository platform that will facilitate future ALS research. CAPTURE ALS will provide the standardized systems and tools necessary to collect, store, and analyze vast amounts of multimodal information about ALS. These multimodal datasets and biosamples will be made available for use by researchers …
Exploring Bulbar Function, Speech And Communication Development in SMA Type 1
5q-spinal muscular atrophy (5q-SMA) is a rare, autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease characterized by degeneration of motor neurons in the spinal cord and lower brainstem with progressive muscle atrophy, weakness, and paralysis. The incidence is 1 in 7-10,000 live births. 5q-SMA presents a wide range of phenotypes that are classified into …
Phenotype, Genotype and Biomarkers 2
The purpose of this study is to learn more about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other related neurodegenerative diseases, including frontotemporal dementia (FTD), primary lateral sclerosis (PLS), hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), progressive muscular atrophy (PMA) and multisystem proteinopathy (MSP). More precisely, the investigator wants to identify the links that exist …
