Trial Information
Hospices Civils De Lyon in France is conducting a single-site natural history study of patients with Sanfilippo Syndrome Type C (MPS IIIC or MPS 3C). This study will combine a retrospective review of medical records and an ongoing collection of clinical data on an observational basis from participants with Sanfilippo syndrome type C.
Number of participants: 15 children with MPS IIIC, ages 12 month old and older
Duration: 24 months.
Participants will be asked to attend clinic visits in person on a yearly basis. In clinic visits will include neurocognitive, developmental, behavioral, biochemical, imaging measures as well as retrospective medical record analysis. At 6-month intervals between clinic visits, participants will be contacted remotely for some safety assessments (e.g., collecting information about concomitant medications, concurrent illnesses, and procedure-related adverse events [AEs] and serious AEs [SAEs] since last clinic visit). At 6-month intervals, caregivers will complete questionnaires and record home video assessments using a dedicated, compliant study application (app) called C-RARE (Recording Application for Real-World Evidence). The C-RARE app consists of 9 tasks of Activities of Daily Living and socialization as well as two parent reported questionnaires.
Location: Hospices Civils De Lyon, Bron, France
