Study summary

Observational, single-site prospective and minimally interventional study in women with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), conducted in France.

Read the detailed description

Patients accepting participation (after signing ICF) will be followed up to at least 2 years or until they started treatment for X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) or withdraw consent, whichever occurs first. Follow-up will be extended beyond 2 years if deemed appropriate after an interim report. Tests and questionnaires will be assessed at baseline and yearly. If the study is extended, beyond 2 years, patients will be assessed at 1-year intervals.

At baseline visit and follow-up visits, patients will undergo an MRI of the brain and the spinal cord and assessments of body sway, EDSS, ADL, pain VAS and SF-36 questionnaire. Plasma biomarkers will be assessed from samples obtained through routine blood draw and a monthly falls diary will be provided each visit to be completed once a month.

This study will not assess any specific medicinal product or intervention, and the study will not interfere with that prescribed in clinical practice.

Study population

The study will include up to 40 adult women with X-linked ALD who attend to a regular visit, who meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria.

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

  1. Women aged 18 years old or older.
  2. Diagnosis of X-linked ALD based on genetic testing, altered VLCFA levels, or family history.
  3. Willing to undergo annual follow-up visits, including brain and spinal cord MRI scans.
  4. Provision of written .
  5. Affiliation or beneficiary of a French social security system or of such a regime.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Any condition that in the opinion of the investigator are likely to adversely affect the study participation, interfere with study compliance, or confound the study results.
  2. Under treatment or previous treatment with leriglitazone.
  3. Pregnant or lactating women.
  4. Subjects benefiting from laws aimed at protecting vulnerable adults: subjects being deprived of liberty by judicial or administrative decision, subjects under guardianship.
  5. Participation in an interventional clinical trial.
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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Spinal cord magnetization transfer ratio (MTR)

    To assess the disease evolution on spinal cord MRI

    Time frame: Change from baseline up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Spinal cord morphometry. Cross sectional area (CSA) to cover the C1 to C7 vertebral levels.
