Measuring limb movement in people with FGFR3-related skeletal dysplasia

Official title: Prospective Longitudinal Multicentric Study to Measure Limb Movement in Patients With FGFR3-related Skeletal Dysplasia Using Syde®

Run by Sysnav · NCT07388966 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This project will try using Syde® wearable movement recordings to see which measurements reliably track limb movement in people aged 3 and older with achondroplasia or hypochondroplasia.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are people aged 3 years or older with a genetically confirmed pathogenic FGFR3 variant causing achondroplasia or hypochondroplasia, who can walk unassisted for at least 10 meters and are willing to use wearable devices and complete study procedures.

Probably not a fit

People with short stature from other conditions, those with cognitive impairments that prevent device use or consent, or those unable to walk unassisted are unlikely to benefit from this project.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This prospective, longitudinal monocentric project at Hôpital Necker will collect repeated limb movement recordings from people with FGFR3-related skeletal dysplasia using Syde® wearable technology. Participants aged 3 and older with genetically confirmed achondroplasia or hypochondroplasia who can walk at least 10 meters unassisted will wear devices and complete questionnaires during four-week recording periods every six months. The main aim is to identify which Syde®-derived digital outcomes are reliable and reproducible as natural history measures. Collected data will be analyzed for measurement reliability, feasibility of remote device use, and suitability as endpoints for future studies.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the study could provide objective digital measures to monitor limb movement and disease course, improving how progression and treatment effects are tracked.

How similar studies have gone: Wearable digital outcomes have shown promise in other movement and neuromuscular conditions, but their use specifically in FGFR3-related skeletal dysplasia is still novel and largely unproven.

Exclusion Criteria:

3. Presence or history of any concurrent disease or condition that could interfere with study participation, impact pediatric growth, affect motor or balance or gait function (such as neurological, endocrine, infectious, allergic, osteoarthritis, or inflammatory), assessed by the investigator.
4. Females who are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant during the study duration.
5. Body Mass Index = 35 kg/m2.

8. Presence of guided growth hardware (such as 8-plates) or planned orthopedic surgeries during the study.
9. Vulnerable patient (guardianship, curatorship or safeguarding of justice), unable to provide informed consent or who is unable to express their consent.
