About this study

Official title: Survey of Current Management of Orthopaedic Complications in Charcot Marie Tooth Disease Patients

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is the most common inherited peripheral neuropathy. Foot deformities are frequent complications in CMT patients and orthopaedic surgery is often required. As yet there are no systematic studies on the management of orthopaedic complications in CMT patients and the current approach varies between centres. This study is a survey with the aim of understanding the current surgical approach to orthopaedic complications in CMT.

The target population includes orthopaedic surgeons who perform surgical procedures for foot deformities in CMT patients attending centres participating in the Inherited Neuropathies Consortium (INC).

Read the detailed description

The study protocol consists of a survey addressed to orthopaedic surgeons. The survey will be completed once and it includes two different scenarios of typical CMT patients (one adult and one child).

The orthopaedic surgeons will be asked which surgical procedures they would apply to each scenario:

  • forefoot cavus,
  • clawtoes and
  • hindfoot varus

No medications or therapeutic agents are a component of this project.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, run by University College London Hospitals at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Procedural correlations among orthopaedic surgeons on management of foot deformities in CMT patients (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jan 2015.
