A Study to Find Out How Nusinersen is Processed in the Body When Given Through the ThecaFlex DRx™ System in Adult and Pediatric Participants With Spinal Muscular Atrophy (PIERRE-PK)

California · Orange, CA

In this PIERRE-PK study, researchers will learn how the body processes nusinersen when it is given through the ThecaFlex DRx™ System, compared to when nusinersen is given by lumbar puncture (LP). The ThecaFlex DRx system is an investigational implantable medical device developed by Alcyone Therapeutics, Inc. It consists of a catheter, which is a flexible tube, connected to a port which is placed under the skin. Alcyone Therapeutics, Inc. has an ongoing study called PIERRE to test the ThecaFlex DRx system. Participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in the PIERRE study may be enrolled in the PIERRE-PK study. The main objective of the PIERRE-PK study is to learn how the body processes nusinersen when given by the ThecaFlex DRx system compared to a lumbar puncture. The main questions researchers want to answer are: * What is the highest amount of nusinersen found in the blood after dosing? * How much nusinersen is found in the blood over the first 24 hours after dosing? The PIERRE-PK study will be done as follows: * Participants will be screened to check if they can join the study. The screening period will be up to 30 days for this study and may overlap with the PIERRE study. * Participants will receive a dose of nusinersen by lumbar puncture. * The ThecaFlex DRx system will be implanted after the lumbar puncture, as part of the PIERRE study. * Participants will receive a dose of nusinersen by the ThecaFlex DRx system, as part of the PIERRE study. * Researchers will take blood samples before and after each dose. The last blood sample will be taken 24 hours after the dose. * The total study duration for each participant in the PIERRE-PK study will be approximately 5 months. This period will overlap with the participant's first 5 months in the PIERRE study.

A Study to Learn How Nusinersen (Spinraza) Affects Participants With Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Who Took it Before or During Pregnancy And About The Health of Their Babies

Massachusetts · Cambridge, MA

In this study, researchers will know more about the effects of nusinersen, also known as Spinraza®, in pregnant participants with spinal muscular atrophy, also known as SMA. This is a drug available for doctors to prescribe for people with SMA. Due to the current treatment options that exist, people with SMA may now reach the age where they can become pregnant. But, there is not enough information known yet about what the effects of nusinersen may be on pregnant people with SMA or on their babies. This is known as an "observational" study, which collects health information about study participants without changing their medical care. The pregnant participants for this study will be found using 3 different groups of SMA study research centers: * ISMAR-US (International SMA Registry in the United States) * UK Adult SMA-REACH (Adult SMA Research and Clinical Hub in the United Kingdom) * SMArtCARE (Austria, Germany, and Switzerland) The main goal of this study is to collect birth and health information from 3 groups of participants and their babies. These groups are: * Those who received nusinersen 14 months before the first day of their last period before getting pregnant * Those who received nusinersen 14.5 months before the day they got pregnant * Those who received nusinersen during any time in their pregnancy The main questions researchers want to learn about in this study are: * Loss of pregnancy overall * Loss of pregnancy before the baby was 20 weeks old * Loss of pregnancy after the baby becomes 20 weeks old * Live births * Loss of the baby after birth * Babies who have problems in their body that develop during pregnancy * Babies who are small for their age while in the participant's uterus * Pregnancy that happens outside of the uterus * How many participants die during pregnancy, while the baby is being born, and up to 12 weeks after delivering the baby * Babies who develop problems in their body after birth Researchers will also compare this information to people without SMA who have not received nusinersen. This study will be done as follows: * Information will start being collected when the participant decides to join the study. * Participants will be contacted at each trimester (about every 3 months) to learn about their health and pregnancy. * Participants' doctors will be contacted at each trimester, when the participants are about 6 or 7 months pregnant, and about 4 weeks after the delivery of the baby. * The babies' doctors will be contacted when the baby is 1, 2, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months old. * Each participant will be in the study until the end of their pregnancy and for up to 12 weeks after delivery. Each baby will be in the study for up to 2 years after birth. * The study overall will last at least 10 years from when the first participant joins the study.
