Abstract
BACKGROUND 5q spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a progressive autosomal recessive motor neuron disease. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the effects of nusinersen on motor function and electrophysiological parameters in adolescent and adult patients with 5q SMA. METHODS Patients with genetically confirmed 5q SMA were eligible for inclusion, and clinical data were collected at baseline (V1), 63 days (V4), 180 days (V5), and 300 days (V6). The efficacy of nusinersen was monitored by encompassing clinical assessments, including the Revised Upper Limb Module (RULM), Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE), 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), and percent-predicted Forced Vital Capacity in sitting position (FVC%) and Compound Muscle Action Potential (CMAP) amplitude. The patients were divided into "sitter" and "walker" subgroups according to motor function status. RESULTS 54 patients were screened, divided into "sitter" (N = 22) and "walker" (N = 32), with the mean age at baseline of 27.03 years (range 13-53 years). The HFMSE in the walker subgroup increased significantly from baseline to V4 (mean change +2.32-point, P = 0.004), V5 (+3.09, P = 0.004) and V6 (+4.21, P = 0.005). The patients in both the sitter and walker subgroup had no significant changes in mean RULM between V1 and the following time points. Significant increases in CMAP amplitudes were observed in both upper and lower limbs after treatment. Also, patients with RULM ≥ 36 points showed significant CMAP improvements. Our analysis predicted that patients with CMAP amplitudes of trapezius ≥ 1.76 mV were more likely to achieve significant motor function improvements. CONCLUSIONS Nusinersen effectively improves motor function and electrophysiological data in adolescent and adult patients with SMA. This is the first report on the CMAP amplitude changes in the trapezius after treatment in patients with SMA. The CMAP values effectively compensate for the ceiling effect observed in the RULM, suggesting that CMAP could serve as an additional biomarker for evaluating treatment efficacy.

Newborn Screening for Spinal Muscular Atrophy in New York State: Clinical Outcomes From the First 3 Years. Neurology 2022; 99:e1527-e1537. [PMID: 35835557 PMCID: PMC9576300 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000200986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) was added to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel in July 2018 largely on the basis of the availability and efficacy of newly approved disease-modifying therapies. New York State (NYS) started universal newborn screening for SMA in October 2018. The authors report the findings from the first 3 years of screening. METHODS Statewide neonatal screening was conducted using DNA extracted from dried blood spots using a real-time quantitative PCR assay. Retrospective follow-up data were collected from 9 referral centers across the state on 34 infants. RESULTS In the first 3 years since statewide implementation, nearly 650,000 infants have been screened for SMA. Thirty-four babies screened positive and were referred to a neuromuscular specialty care center. The incidence remains lower than previously predicted. The majority (94%), including all infants with 2-3 copies of survival motor neuron (SMN) 2, have received treatment. Among treated infants, the overwhelming majority (94%; 30/32) have received gene replacement. All infants in this cohort with 3 copies of SMN2 are clinically asymptomatic posttreatment based on early clinical follow-up data. Infants with 2 copies of SMN2 are more variable in their outcomes. Electrodiagnostic outcomes data obtained from a subgroup of patients (n = 11) demonstrated either improvement or no change in compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude at last clinical follow-up compared with pretreatment baseline. Most infants were treated before 6 weeks of age (median = 34.5 days of life; range 11-180 days). Delays and barriers to treatment identified by treating clinicians followed 2 broad themes: medical and nonmedical. Medical delays most commonly reported were the presence of AAV9 antibodies and elevated troponin I levels. Nonmedical barriers included delays in obtaining insurance and insurance policies regarding specific treatment modalities. DISCUSSION The findings from the NYS cohort of newborn screen-identified infants are consistent with other reports of improved outcomes from early diagnosis and treatment. Additional biomarkers of motor neuron health including EMG can potentially be helpful in detecting preclinical decline.
