View clinical trials related to Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type I.
Filter by:Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a serious neuromuscular disease characterized by the degeneration of alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord, resulting in progressive proximal muscle atrophy and denervation. The main problems are posture disorders, scoliosis, pelvic curvature, contracture, hip dislocation, foot and chest deformities. In this study, examining the effectiveness of trunk support used to alleviate the progression of scoliosis in children diagnosed with SMA Type I will contribute to the current literature.In addition to Individualized Trunk Exercises (ITE), Individualized Pulmonary Rehabilitation (IPR) and Chest Care (CC) Programme, the use of thoracolumbosacral spinal orthosis in Type I children will be used for the first time in our country and in the world literature. SMA. Our aim in the project is to examine the effectiveness of this treatment program on the motor functions, scoliosis Cobb angle, pelvic curvature and chest deformity of children with Type I SMA.The project is planned to be carried out with children diagnosed with Type I SMA who are followed up at Medipol Mega University Hospital Pediatric Chest Diseases Polyclinic.In evaluating the development of scoliosis as the primary outcome measure; Radiological evaluation (Cobb Angle) and examination of chest deformity; Lung X-ray (Basal Chest Wall Upper-Lower Ratio Measurement) will be used. As secondary outcome measures, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test for Neuromuscular Disorders and the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded were used to assess motor functions and examine the level of motor development; In the World Health Organization Motor Development Scale body posture assessment; Supine Trunk Rotation Angle Test and Pelvic Curvature Test, pulse oximetry to assess oxygenation; In determining the level of satisfaction with orthosis use; Children/families' information will be questioned through the Quebec Assistive Technology User Satisfaction Evaluation Survey and Personal Information Form.The active control group will receive the ITE, IPR and CC program as a home program and once a week in the outpatient clinic for 8 weeks, 7 days a week, once a day, each session being 50-60 minutes. In the ITE-IPR-CC + spine orthosis group, in addition to the control group program, a thoracolumbosacral spine orthosis specially designed for the child will be used every day of the week and 8 hours a day for 8 weeks. Evaluations will be made at baseline and at week 8.
The goal of this pilot interventional study is to learn about the use of an in-home harness system in children who have been treated for spinal muscular atrophy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is the in-home body weight support harness system a feasible option for families to use? 2. Is the in-home body weight support harness system a useful tool for children treated for spinal muscular atrophy? 3. Is the in-home body weight support harness system a safe tool for children treated for spinal muscular atrophy? Participants will be given an in-home body weight support harness system and taught how to use it. Families will document how often and for how long they use the system over 6 months. Children will be given tests of motor function at the beginning, 3-months, and 6-months. At the end of the study, families will be asked to fill out a questionnaire about thier experience using the system.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate safety and efficacy of intravenous delivery of EXG001-307 as a treatment of spinal muscular atrophy Type 1 (SMN1).
This is a long-term follow-up safety and efficacy study of participants in clinical trials for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) who were treated with onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi. Participants will roll over from their respective previous (parent) study into this long-term study for continuous monitoring of safety as well as monitoring of continued efficacy and durability of response to onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi treatment.
This is a Phase 3, open-label, single-arm, single-dose, trial of onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi (gene replacement therapy) in participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) Type 1 and who are genetically defined by a biallelic pathogenic mutation of the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) with one or two copies of survival motor neuron 2 gene (SMN2). The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi by assessing the proportion of symptomatic SMA Type 1 participants who achieve the ability to sit unaided for at least 10 seconds up to and including the 18 months of age trial visit. At least 6 participants aged < 6 months (< 180 days) at the time of gene replacement therapy (Day 1) will be enrolled.
This is a multi-center trial to test safety and evaluate early treatment intervention with valproic acid and carnitine in moderating SMA symptoms of Type I infants.
The purpose of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dosage of sodium phenylbutyrate in children with spinal muscular atrophy type I; and to determine if the drug has an effect on SMN mRNA and protein levels.
