What this trial studies
This observational study aims to longitudinally gather data on symptoms, treatment usage, and overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL) from patients diagnosed with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). Participants will use the Folia mobile app to report their experiences, including symptom burden and treatment changes, over a six-month period. The study will employ a hybrid recruitment strategy, combining clinic and community referrals, and will include monthly survey check-ins to enhance data collection. The goal is to create a real-world data source that reflects the variability of symptoms and HRQoL in PNH patients, including those on specific therapies like iptacopan.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the real-world experiences of PNH patients, potentially leading to improved management strategies.
How similar studies have gone: While the approach of using home-reported outcomes is gaining traction, this specific study represents a novel effort to systematically capture patient experiences in PNH.
