Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe neuromuscular disease characterized by variable age of loss of ambulation. Hospital based physiotherapist-assisted (PA) functional assessments are commonly used for monitoring clinical progression. Stride Velocity at the 95th Centile (SV95C) captures daily ability using a wearable device in a real-life setting and therefore relies less on patient collaboration with assessment or inter-evaluator variability. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) qualified SV95C as a primary endpoint in DMD. This analysis aims to explore its validity and normative data in a prospective natural history (NH) study (GNT-014-MDYF). DMD boys, aged 5-9 years, receiving steroids and achieving an NSAA ≥18 were enrolled. The SV95C and other clinical functional outcomes (e.g., NSAA) were measured every 6 months. Data (n=77) were described for age subgroups (5-8Y and >8Y). SV95C reliability was analyzed by intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) with SV95C separated by 2 half recording periods. Spearman’s correlation and regression methods were employed to assess the relationship between SV95C and other functional outcomes. The sensibility to change by Standardized response mean (SRM) was assessed. Patients showed good compliance with the use of device (eg 96% at baseline). SV95C was highly reliable overtime (ICC 0.96- 0.98 over two years), with clear separation from the healthy controls. Good correlations were observed between SV95C and other PA outcomes (Correlation coefficient from 0.56 to 0.83).
At 1 and 2 years, SRM were -0.47 and -0.80 in SV95C with mean declines from baseline of 0.097m/s and 0.162m/s for 5-8Y and 0.298m/s and 0.363m/s for >8Y groups. This analysis demonstrated the validity of SV95C in a NH study with standardized follow-up and its consistency with published data. SV95C was sensitive to detect clinical change and correlated well with other clinical measures. The predictability and clinical meaningful thresholds are to be explored.
期刊介绍:
This international, multidisciplinary journal covers all aspects of neuromuscular disorders in childhood and adult life (including the muscular dystrophies, spinal muscular atrophies, hereditary neuropathies, congenital myopathies, myasthenias, myotonic syndromes, metabolic myopathies and inflammatory myopathies).
The Editors welcome original articles from all areas of the field:
• Clinical aspects, such as new clinical entities, case studies of interest, treatment, management and rehabilitation (including biomechanics, orthotic design and surgery).
• Basic scientific studies of relevance to the clinical syndromes, including advances in the fields of molecular biology and genetics.
• Studies of animal models relevant to the human diseases.
The journal is aimed at a wide range of clinicians, pathologists, associated paramedical professionals and clinical and basic scientists with an interest in the study of neuromuscular disorders.
