Study population: Patients with spinal muscular atrophy

Who may be able to join

  • Self-identified as 5q-autosomal recessive spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type I, II or III as judged by their neurologist upon diagnosis
  • Ability and willingness to provide blood samples
  • Willingness (by the patient or patient's parents or legal guardian) to complete to their best ability a questionnaire which requests specific clinical and genetic information
  • Able to participate and willing to give written informed consent or assent. Informed consent will be obtained from the patient, or the patient's parent or legal guardian.

Who cannot join

  • Any known genetic condition other than spinal muscular atrophy, unless it is not interfering with the purpose of this study based on the Sponsor's judgment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Muscular Atrophy, Spinal, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

SMN1/SMN2 detection in blood by mRNA assay (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Nov 2016.
