Limb-Girdle Video Assessment

December 12, 2023 updated by: The Emmes Company, LLC

Limb-Girdle Video Assessment Concept Elicitation and Feasibility Study

The purpose of this study is to develop a new remote-based video assessment outcome measure for Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) trials. The overall objectives for this study are: 1. Identify domains and tasks meaningful to participants with a Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) for development of the LGVA, including considerations for subtype heterogeneity and functional subgroup branching; 2. Determine the feasibility and reliability of the LGVA with test-retest of the LGVA Video Capture Manual; 3. Assess and refine the LGVA Video Capture Manual to ensure standardization and incorporate feedback from participants; 4. Collect source material videos using the LGVA Video Capture Manual to support the development of scorecards for the LGVA.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to gain insight from people living with an LGMD and gather source material videos to develop and test Limb-Girdle Video Assessment (LGVA), a new outcome measure designed to assess changes in functional abilities of participants in LGMDs clinical trials. The LGVA is being designed as a remote video capture to assess nuanced changes in compensatory movement patterns over time. This study involves two stages. In the concept elicitation stage, the tasks for the LGVA Video Capture Manual will be finalized based on feedback from participants living with an LGMD 2A, 2B, or 2I in various stages of disease progression. After finalizing the LGVA Video Capture Manual, source material videos will be collected to evaluate the feasibility and appropriateness of the LGVA tasks, standardize capture procedures, and inform the development of scorecards for the LGVA.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Persons living with a confirmed diagnosis of LGMD 2A, 2B, or 2I.

Description

  • Person with confirmed diagnosis of an LGMD 2A, 2B, or 2I
  • ≥14 years of age at the timing of consent (if age 14 - 17, consent from the parent/ legal guardian is also needed)
  • Able to read, speak, and understand English
  • Residing in the USA
  • Willing and able to complete an electronic survey, which includes questions about personal characteristics and medical history as well as review of tasks

Cohorts and Interventions

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessing the fluctuation of movement abilities of LGMDs patients via remote video capture.
Time Frame: January 2023 - March 2023
Using the newly developed LGVA Video Capture Manual, participants are asked to record two sets of videos of them performing assigned tasks. Participants will have one week to complete each round of video capture, with approximately one month between each round. Videos will be captured remotely and uploaded through a secure platform.
January 2023 - March 2023

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Task Selection Survey
Time Frame: August 2022 - September 2022
Electronic survey asking LGMDs patients about tasks and activities they perform in their daily life, and if/ how these are impacted by their LGMD symptoms.
August 2022 - September 2022
Focus Group
Time Frame: September 2022 - October 2022
Small group discussion of participants with similar functional abilities to discuss the progression of symptoms and heterogeneity among subtypes.
September 2022 - October 2022
Exit Interview
Time Frame: January 2023 - March 2023
After the feasibility video captures are complete, participants are asked about their experiences using the LGVA Video Capture Manual and the recording procedures.
January 2023 - March 2023
