Study population: FOP Cohort(s): The International Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva Association (IFOPA) membership has 235 confirmed people living with FOP in the US. From this membership database, there were 131 members or next of kin of members who opted-in to allow for the tokenization of their membership data to occur. Comparator Cohort: A random sample of 100,000 people from an insured population without FOP diagnosis living in the U.S. and matched to the FOP population.

Who may be able to join

  • FOP Cohort(s):
  • Living with FOP in the United States who have been identified from the IFOPA membership database
  • Confirmed FOP diagnosis through IFOPA membership database will be tokenized and linked with HealthVerity's medical claims data, pharmacy claims data, laboratory data and obituary data, as defined in the protocol
  • Comparator Cohort:
  • People without FOP living in the U.S. randomly sampled from HealthVerity's closed medical claims data and matched to the FOP population
  • Index date are defined as each person's cohort entry date. People may exit and re-enter the cohort, with the period during which they were not in the cohort excluded from the analysis
  • The comparator cohort will be matched to the cohort of people with FOP on the following variables: age, sex, insurance type and first index date

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP), run by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals 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 7 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Demographic characteristics (time frame: Up to 5 years). The study lists 16 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 3 Jul 2025.
