Study summary

The goal of this Natural History Study for Charcot-Marie-Tooth is to acquire, record, and analyze patient-reported data and associated genetic reports, Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and clinical notes to identify the burden, diagnostic journey, and prevalence of disease that will aid scientists in their work toward finding a cure.

Participants will be asked to complete a Natural History Survey.

Study population

This study is open to anyone that has Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease or other Inherited Neuropathies.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

Patients will be made aware of the study by HNF and others (referenced above) and invited to participate. Once patients have reviewed and signed electronically the document, it is attached to their file.

All affected individuals with CMT/IN are eligible to participate in GRIN with proper informed consent.

Children, adolescents and adults with either a confirmed diagnosis or suspected to have CMT/IN are eligible with parent and/or guardian consent.

Individuals that have been clinically diagnosed through family history and/or standard clinical testing (e.g. neuro exam, EMG, NCS) and/or genetically tested or suspected to have CMT/IN (note: many mutations have not been identified yet) are eligible.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

People that do not have Charcot-Marie-Tooth or other Inherited Neuropathies

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
