About this trial

Participants will attend up to 4 study visits to collect clinical assessments. The assessments will evaluate participants' symptoms and quality of life to understand disease activity in patients with CMS due to mutations in DOK7, MUSK, AGRN, or LRP4.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Summary statistics of retrospective and prospective collection of data on diagnosis.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
2

Summary statistics of retrospective and prospective collection of data on health care utilization.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
3

Summary statistics of retrospective and prospective collection of data on medications.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
4

Secondary outcomes

1

Change from baseline for QMG total score, each component score, and raw values

The Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) consists of 13 items that assess ocular, bulbar, and limb function. Six of the 13 items are timed endurance tests measured in seconds. Each item has a possible score from 0 to 3, with 3 being the most severe. The total possible score is 39, with higher scores indicating more severe impairments.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
2

Change from baseline for MG-ADL total score

The Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) is an 8-item scale that assesses MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities. The 8 items are rated by the participant on a scale of 0 to 3. The total score can range from 0 to 24, with higher total scores indicating more impairment.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
3

Change from baseline for PROMIS-GHS

The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Global Health Scale (PROMIS-GHS) is a quality-of-life questionnaire that comprises questions on overall physical health, physical function, pain, and fatigue (GPH); and quality of life, mental health, satisfaction with social activities, and emotional problems (GMH). The participant marks their response on a 5-point Likert scale, with lower scores indicating poorer health

Time frame
Up to 12 months
4

Change from baseline for PROMIS-DFL

The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Dyspnea Functional Limitations (PROMIS-DFL) is a questionnaire that evaluates the impact of dyspnea on the ability to perform daily activities within the last 7 days. The participant marks their response on a 4-point scale (0 to 3), with lower values indicating less functional impairment.

Time frame
Up to 12 months
