Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Children with Type I SMA up to 6 months old or Type II SMA up to 5 years old at diagnosis who started risdiplam within six months of diagnosis and meet stability and nutrition criteria.

Probably not a fit

Patients who do not receive risdiplam or who have comorbid conditions that preclude interpretation of outcomes may not experience clear benefits from participation.

What this trial studies

This is a multicenter, non-interventional study with a retrospective component designed to observe the real-world use of risdiplam in SMA patients. It will collect medical history and prior visit data from records, and follow participants for up to 24 months to monitor motor function and safety. The study includes participants who started risdiplam within six months of diagnosis and are in good nutritional and health status at the index date. Data will come from clinical records at participating sites in Cairo, Egypt. No interventions beyond standard risdiplam treatment are administered within this observational framework.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: Participants may have improved understanding of how risdiplam performs in typical care settings and over longer periods.

How similar studies have gone: Observational, real-world data have previously provided useful insights into risdiplam’s safety and efficacy in SMA populations, though site-specific results may vary.
