Tracking the course of charcot-marie-tooth disease over time
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study follows people with certain types of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), a genetic nerve disorder, over time to understand how the condition progresses. It also includes healthy volunteers as controls, and no experimental treatments are given.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or a close relative must have a confirmed gene change that causes CMT (or a strongly suspected one).
- If you don't have your own genetic test result, you need a family member with a confirmed gene change and a clear link to your condition.
- You must not have another known cause for your nerve problems, like diabetes or injury.
- If you're a control participant, you must not have any nerve problems.
- You must be willing to sign a consent form (teenagers 13-17 need to sign an assent form).

This study looks at how Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) or related inherited nerve conditions change over time. It may help researchers better understand what to expect and guide future treatments.
This study follows people who have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and compares them with people without it. It aims to better understand CMT, using both clinical symptoms and genetic test results, which may help future care.
This study examines tremor (involuntary shaking) in people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a genetic nerve condition that affects the legs and feet. Researchers will compare people with CMT who have tremor to healthy volunteers to better understand this symptom.
This study watches how people with certain muscle or nerve diseases walk over time. It may help doctors understand changes in walking patterns and is open to adults who can walk and have a genetic diagnosis of a neuromuscular condition.
This study looks at genes linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), a condition that affects nerves in the arms and legs. It aims to find new causes and understand why symptoms vary. If you join, you may give a blood or saliva sample for genetic testing.
This study is looking for people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (a nerve condition) and healthy volunteers to track long-term changes in the body. Researchers want to see if certain biomarkers (measurable signs) can help predict how CMT progresses over time.
