4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this research study is to create and validate two patient reported outcome (PRO) questionnaires. PRO questionnaires ask questions that help to measure disability in patients with inherited neuropathies. These questionnaires ask questions about what participants think disability is for themselves or others with inherited neuropathies. These questionnaires are a useful tool when evaluating whether treatments are working in the day to day life of an individual, although there are currently no questionnaires available specifically for people who have Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT).
This project includes two projects. One is looking for new genes that cause Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT). The other is looking for genes that do not cause CMT, but may modify the symptoms a person has.
The purpose of this study is to identify the issues that have greatest impact on QOL for patients with Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) Disease. Patients who have -registered in the Inherited Neuropathies Consortium Contact Registry will be invited to participate.
This is an observational longitudinal study to determine the natural history and genotype-phenotype correlations of disease causing mutations in Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) type 1B (CMT1B), 2A (CMT2A), 4A (CMT4A), and 4C (CMT4C). The investigators will also be determine the capability of the newly developed CMT Pediatric Scale (CMT Peds scale) and the Minimal Dataset to measure impairment and perform longitudinal measurements in patients with multiple forms of CMT over a five year window
