What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of measurement of spirometry

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  2. Change respiratory force

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation to change Inspiratory and expiratory force

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  3. Change CO2 response (Read test)

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  4. Change subjective sleepiness (Epworth)

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  5. change Krupp's Fatigue Severity Scale (KFSS)

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation This is a short questionnaire of 9 questions to which the patient responds on a Likert scale ranging from 1 to 7

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  6. change cognitive impairment by Trail Making Test A & B

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation Trail Making Test is a neuropsychological test of visual attention and task switching. It consists of two parts in which the subject is instructed to connect a set of 25 dots as quickly as possible while still maintaining accuracy.

    Measured: every year during 5 years

  7. change Oximetry

    composite predictive factors of alveolar hypoventilation

    Measured: every year during 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myotonic Dystrophy, Steinert, run by University Hospital, Lille at 6 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 7 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 5 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in France. 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?

Change of measurement of spirometry (time frame: every year during 5 years). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Dec 2025.
