About this study

Official title: Electrical Impedance Myography and Muscle Ultrasound: Longitudinal Measures in Pompe Disease

Study Objectives:

  1. Determine the correlation between quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS), electrical impedance myography (EIM) and currently accepted measures of physical function.
  2. Determine the reliability of EIM measures performed in the home through use of a hand held device.
  3. Determine if QMUS and EIM can detect pre-clinical changes in Pompe disease.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Muscle ultrasoundDevice

    Ultrasound images of limb muscles will be collected.

  • Electrical Impedance MyographyOther

    A painless current passes through the skin and surface electrodes are used to record the impedance through muscle.

Study groups in NCT02742298
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
QMUSOtherAll patients will undergo serial quantitative muscle ultrasound.
Receives: Device: Muscle ultrasound
EIMOtherAll patients will undergo serial electrical impedance myography measures.
Receives: Other: Electrical Impedance Myography

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percent change in muscle ultrasound echointensity as compared to baseline

    Measured: Baseline, 1-2 years

  2. Percent change in muscle electrical impedance myography as compared to baseline

    Measured: Baseline, 1-2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Inter-rater reliability of muscle ultrasound and electrical impedance myography measures

    Measured: 1-2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Muscle ultrasound and Electrical Impedance Myography in people with Pompe Disease, run by Duke University at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 25 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Percent change in muscle ultrasound echointensity as compared to baseline (time frame: Baseline, 1-2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Sep 2020.
