Trial summary

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome (LNS) is a genetic disorder that results in a deficit in the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) enzyme, which affects purine metabolism. It is a genetic disorder that is carried by an X-linked recessive gene. LNS has 3 typical symptoms. Read more about this study

About this study

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome (LNS) is a genetic disorder that results in a deficit in the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) enzyme, which affects purine metabolism. It is a genetic disorder that is carried by an X-linked recessive gene.

LNS has 3 typical symptoms. These are increased uric acid, neurological symptoms and behavioral disorders. Dystonia is often seen among its neurological manifestations. Signs of primidal and extraprimidal system can be seen.

It is very important to create the syndrome-specific physiotherapy program. In order to achieve this, evaluations based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model are valuable in terms of showing the right way in the management of the disease.

Read the detailed description

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome (LNS) is a genetic disorder that results in a deficit in the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) enzyme, which affects purine metabolism. It was described by Lesch and Nyhan in 1960. It is a genetic disorder that is carried by an X-linked recessive gene and is therefore predominantly seen in males.

LNS has 3 typical symptoms. These are increased uric acid, neurological symptoms and behavioral disorders. Self-harming behavior begins to appear from the age of 2. Dystonia is often seen among its neurological manifestations. Signs of primidal and extraprimidal system can be seen.

As developments in treatment methods continue in individuals with LNS, the expected life expectancy of these individuals is prolonged. However, these individuals require physiotherapy for symptoms specific to LNS.

Because of the developmental delay seen in babies with LNS, these babies may be diagnosed with cerebral palsy. It is very important to create the syndrome-specific physiotherapy program. In order to achieve this, evaluations based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model are valuable in terms of showing the right way in the management of the disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Demographic information form

    This form was prepared by the researchers to obtain the demographic data of the case in the study.

    Measured: 20 munites

  2. Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM)

    The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) is an observational clinical tool designed to evaluate change in gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy, Down Syndrome and acquired brain damage.

    Measured: 45 minutes

  3. Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS)

    Gross Motor Function Classification System developed in 1997[1] to classify and describe the abilities of children and youth with cerebral palsy. Generally, the higher the level the poorer the functional ability of the child.

    Measured: 10 munites

  4. Modified Ashworth Scale

    Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) is used to assess spasticity. Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) have been utilized in the following populations: stroke, spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, pediatric hypertonia and central nervous system lesions.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  5. Functional Independence Measure (WeeFIM)

    The WeeFIM II® System, a pediatric version of the Functional Independence Measure™ (FIM) System, documents and tracks functional performance in children and adolescents with acquired or congenital disabilities by measuring a child's need for assistance, in addition to the severity of disability.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  6. The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL)

    The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) is a valid, practical, brief, standardized, generic, and self-reporting assessment tool to measure health-related quality of life HRQOL for pediatrics and adolescents, it can be carried by patients himself and their parents.The PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales instrument is the last version of PedsQL contain 23-items, including formats for typically developing children and adolescents 2 to 18 years old.

    Measured: 20 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, run by Uskudar University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2022. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact tuba kolaylı, MSc. (+905413698977, tubakolayli@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Demographic information form (time frame: 20 munites). The study lists 6 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 21 Sep 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
