The variability observed following the advent of commercial availability of Nusinersen for all types of SMA has highlighted the need to identify tools that may allow to predict possible therapeutic responses. The aim of this project is to establish whether an integrated approach using clinical, imaging (muscle MRI) and circulating biomarkers, can provide the possibility to develop a predictive model of therapeutic response to novel therapies for SMA patients. More specifically we wish to establish the correlation between clinical response, different biomarkers indicative of central nervous system efficacy (e.g. determination of neurofilaments levels), and markers that provide evidence of the skeletal muscle response (e.g. serum myostatin and muscle imaging) in different types of SMA', 'detailedDescription': 'Hyphotesis and Significance:\n\nThe individual variability in clinical response to treatment reported in the first Nusinersen studies has been confirmed by post approval real-world data. While some children acquire unexpected motor abilities, others have an apparently more limited clinical response. Age at disease onset and severity are reported to play a role, but do not account for the entire spectrum of clinical responses observed. There is a strong need to identify clinical and laboratory biomarkers to better understand the variables that determine the response to treatment in individuals, especially under the prospect of having further therapeutic options approved in the near future.\n\nWorking hypothesis: The hypothesis is that circulating, including neurofilaments and myostatin pathway, and imaging biomarkers may provide additional information to clinical longitudinal data and that an integrated approach may provide a better possibility to develop a predictive model of therapeutic response to novel therapies for SMA patients.\n\nThe aim is to to set up a platform of biomarkers, including circulating NfL, myostatin pathway (GDF8, FOLLISTATIN, GDF11 and ACTIVIN A) and creatinine, to establish how they relate to clinical findings and to better understand if these variables may determine clinical response to the treatment in SMA.\n\nIn patients older than 5 years, muscle MRI at baseline will also be used to explore if the pattern and severity of muscle involvement can better define the phenotype and predict therapeutic response\n\nSpecific Aim 2:\n\nto identify trajectories of clinical progression in patients treated with Nusinersen, using our prospective data in combination with available data in other patients recently treated with Nusinersen\n\nSpecific Aim 3:\n\nThe overarching aim of this project is to explore the possibility to develop an integrated predictive model of therapeutic response to novel therapies for SMA patients'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'all pèatients withj a genetically confirmed diagnosis of 5Q spinal muscular atrophy who receive a treatment as part of standards of care', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n\\* All patients with SMA undergoing one of the treatments provided as standards of care\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* untreated patients\n* patients/crarers unwilling to sign consent'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05779956', 'briefTitle': 'Personalized Medicine for SMA: a Translational Project', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS'}, 'officialTitle': 'Personalized Medicine for Spinal Muscular Atrophy: a Translational Project to Achieve Patient Specific Therapeutic Guidance.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '3730'}}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Rome', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Italy', 'contacts': [{'name': "Adele D'Amico", 'role': 'CONTACT'}], 'facility': 'Ospedale Bambino gesu', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 41.89193, 'lon': 12.51133}}, {'city': 'Rome', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'Italy', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Eugenio Mercuri', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'eugeniomaria.mercuri@policlinicogemelli.it', 'phone': '063015', 'phoneExt': '5340'}], 'facility': 'Policlinico gemelli', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 41.89193, 'lon': 12.51133}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'eugenio Mercuri, MD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'eugeniomaria.mercuri@policlinicogemelli.it', 'phone': '063015', 'phoneExt': '5340'}, {'name': 'Marika Pane', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'marika.pane@policlinicogemelli.it', 'phone': '063015', 'phoneExt': '5340'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Eugenio Mercuri, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'F Policlinico Gemelli IRCCS'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO', 'description': 'aggregate data only in line with italian regulation and consnet'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'University of Milan', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Ospedale Pediatrico Bambino Gesu', 'class': 'UNKNOWN'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
