Natural History Evaluation of Charcot Marie Tooth Disease (CMT) Types CMT1B, CMT2A, CMT4A, CMT4C, and Others
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
This is an observational longitudinal study to determine the natural history and genotype-phenotype correlations of disease causing mutations in Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) type 1B (CMT1B), 2A (CMT2A), 4A (CMT4A), and 4C (CMT4C). The investigators will also be determine the capability of the newly developed CMT Pediatric Scale (CMT Peds scale) and the Minimal Dataset to measure impairment and perform longitudinal measurements in patients with multiple forms of CMT over a five year window
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: All patients must be seen in-person at a participating center for the initial visit. Inclusion Criteria - patients with CMT (all subtypes) 1. Patient has documented, pathogenic or likely pathogenic CMT-causing variant(s) OR 2. Patient has a first- or second-degree family member (parent, child, sibling, half-sibling, aunt, uncle, grandparent, or grandchild) with a documented pathogenic or likely pathogenic CMT-causing variant AND a clear link between that family member and the affected patient AND a phenotype consistent with the diagnosis i. A clear link is necessary for a second-degree relative. For example, if a grandparent is affected and has a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant, and the parent does not have any signs, symptoms, or electrophysiology consistent with the diagnosis, there is no clear link unless the parent has also been found to have the pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant such as in cases with reduced penetrance ii. In cases where clear lin
