Understanding Adult SMA Diagnosis & Treatment Experiences
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial explores the experiences of adults with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in the MedStar Health System, looking at how they are diagnosed and treated, and any differences in care they may face.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
- You must be 18 years old or older.

This study creates a registry and clinical hub for adults with 5q spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). It aims to track health outcomes and improve care for people living with SMA.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is safe and tolerable for people with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). It may help improve muscle function by activating low motor neurons.
This study looks at changes in two genes, SMN1 and SMN2, which are linked to spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). It aims to better understand the different versions of these genes in healthy people and those with SMA. Participating involves a blood sample and genetic analysis.
This trial tests a new medicine called EXG001-307 for babies with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) types 1 and 2. The goal is to see if it is safe and helps with muscle strength and breathing.
This study uses wearable devices (like smartwatches or activity trackers) to monitor movement and motor development in young children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare genetic condition affecting muscle strength. The goal is to see if wearables can track disease progression and treatment response better than traditional clinic visits.
This study tests a virtual reality rehabilitation program for young people with SMA (spinal muscular atrophy, a genetic muscle-weakening condition). Researchers want to understand if VR-based exercises can help improve function and quality of life.
