Quality of life data for individuals affected by Spinal Muscular Atrophy: A baseline dataset from the Cure SMA Community Update Survey

Abstract: Abstract BACKGROUND Individuals and/or caregivers of individuals affected by Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) completed the 2019 Cure SMA Community Update Survey, online, assessing health-related quality of life (HRQoL), loss of work productivity, and fatigue using the Health Utilities Index Questionnaire (HUI), the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI), and the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Fatigue Short Form (PROMIS Fa… Show more

“…The SMN2 copy number is inversely correlated with the severity of SMA [6,7]; however, this correlation is not absolute due to additional genetic and epigenetic disease modifiers [8]. SMA, although a disease continuum, is classified into five types (0-4; most to least severe) [9][10][11][12] and SMA types differ with respect to survival and overall quality of life [13][14][15][16]. Type 0 SMA results in intrauterine or early neonatal death [9], whereas onset of Type 4 SMA occurs during adulthood and represents the least severe SMA type with the lowest incidence [17].…”

“…Nevertheless, it is clear that improvement in functional status after treatment with Zolgensma is associated with marked improvement in QOL. 11 In the case of Luxturna, patient or parent-reported questionnaires demonstrated significant improvement in activities of daily living compared with baseline and control groups after 1 year. 12 This, in addition to the modest adverse effects, suggests a highly favourable patient experience for both therapies.…”

“…Moreover, obtaining accurate measurements of quality of life (QOL) data for SMA patients is complicated by the incapacitating nature of these diseases. Nevertheless, it is clear that improvement in functional status after treatment with Zolgensma is associated with marked improvement in QOL 11 . In the case of Luxturna, patient or parent‐reported questionnaires demonstrated significant improvement in activities of daily living compared with baseline and control groups after 1 year 12 .…”

“…9,10 With 15 diseasespecific domains, the SMA-HI is capable of identifying clinically meaningful information that may not be adequately captured using common generic PROMs, such as the Health Utilities Index Questionnaire (HUI), the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI), and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL). [3][4][5][6][7] Qualitative reports suggest that even a seemingly minor improvement in just one domain of functioning can have potentially life-altering effects on a person's quality of life and indicate that it may be valuable to examine SMA-HI results for each subdomain in specific populations. 7,8 Here, we report results from a population of adolescents and young adults with SMA.…”
