An Ambispective Natural History Study in Myotonic Dystrophy Patients Linking Retrospective Data Captured From the DM-Scope Registry With a Prospective 24-month Follow-up Period

Официальное название

An Ambispective 24-Month Longitudinal Natural History Study in Myotonic Dystrophy Patients Using DM-Scope Registry (TRACK-DM Study)

Обзор

This natural history observational study is being conducted to follow patients with DM1 or DM2 over a 2 year period to study the presence of myotonia, how it's perceived and its impact on patients quality of life. This study will be conducted at 6 study sites located in France.100 Patients will be recruited from the DM Scope Registry only. The study involves two parts. Part 1 will look back up to 18 months of past medical history that is already available from the DM Scope Registry. Part 2 will follow the same patients for 24 months, with study visits at Day 1 (Baseline), 12 months and 24 months. The goal is to better understand how myotonia symptoms and complications such as heart and other systemic problems develop and change over time. A smaller, sub-study will take place at one site, using new exploratory methods in about 40 patients with DM1 who are also part of the Track DM Study.

Подробное описание

The rationale of the study is to gather longitudinal data on patients with DM1 and DM2 in order to better understand disease progression and evolution of myotonia and other symptoms and their associated complications/risks, particularly in relation to cardiac and other systemic manifestations. The primary objective is to investigate the evolution of myotonia presence, perception and its impact on the burden of disease over time in patients with Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and type 2 (DM2). The secondary objective is to evaluate the progression of other DM-related multisystemic symptom manifestation such as cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal (GI), hepatic, and renal impairments/disorders, muscle weakness, stumbling and falls in DM patients over 24-months. Additionally, the study will assess the use of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments for myotonia during the data collection period.

All of the patients will be recruited through the DM-Scope Registry. The registry database will be the source of the retrospective data to be used in the study. The study will begin with a detailed retrospective medical history assessment (up to -18 months to baseline) based on the annual routine DM-scope visits in the database. This will provide a comprehensive view of the patients' health status before the study. The 24-month prospective assessment period visits will occur at baseline, 12 months and 24 months. This approach allows for detailed tracking of disease progression and associated complications/risks over time.

The exploratory sub-study aims to broaden the understanding of DM1 pathophysiology by incorporating biophysical, functional, and behavioral measurements beyond traditional motor function and muscle strength. It also aims to evaluate the reliability of several innovative assessments, including advanced tools to deliver a multidimensional view of disease progression.
