About this study

The long term goal of this proposal is to precisely characterize the auditory and vestibular abilities of children with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) and how these abilities evolve during the progression of the disorder. This information will be used to refine the management methods for hearing loss and vestibular disorders in these patients. Given that the phenotypic severity is variable within the CMT patient population, we predict that not all CMT patients will present with auditory and vestibular dysfunction. We will therefore collect specimens (i.e., buccal swabs and saliva) from study participants so that their DNA can be isolated and used to determine the genetic basis for auditory and vestibular dysfunction in peripheral neuropathies.

Read the detailed description

Aim #1: Evaluate the prevalence of auditory and vestibular disorders in children diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth.

We hypothesize that a significant number of children with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) will develop auditory and vestibular neuropathies, due to the progression of the disorder. We will examine the characteristics of auditory and vestibular abilities of children and how these relate to the type of CMT.

Aim #2: Examine the progression of hearing and vestibular abilities during the course of the disorder.

We hypothesize that the hearing and vestibular abilities of some children with CMT will deteriorate with time. We will repeat the auditory and vestibular testing on a yearly basis to precisely describe the progression of these abilities.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of auditory disorders in children diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Characteristics.

    We will evaluate how many children with CMT have present hearing loss. The presence of hearing loss will be based on the results of the following tests (passed or failed): otoacoustic emissions, auditory brainstem responses, auditory event related potentials, audiometry and speech perception

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Prevalence of vestibular disorders in children diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth

    We will evaluate how many children with CMT have present vestibular disorder. The presence of vestibular disorder will be based on the results of the following test (passed or failed): video head impulse test

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Progression of hearing loss

    We will follow subjects longitudinally to evaluate the progression of hearing loss. The degree of hearing loss will be monitor over time to evaluate if changes are noticed.

    All tests listed in Outcome 1 will be repeated and compared to initial values to define the presence or absence of changes in the degree of hearing loss.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, run by Nemours Children's Clinic 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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2023. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Unable to recruit participants). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Prevalence of auditory disorders in children diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Characteristics. (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 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 Apr 2023.
