In this study, researchers will learn more about the safety of tofersen, also known as Qalsody®. This is a drug available for doctors to prescribe for participant with a certain type of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS. This type is in participant who have a mutation in the superoxide dismutase 1 gene, also known as SOD-1.
This is known as an "observational" study, which collects health information about study participants without changing their medical care. Participants for this study will be found using 2 different groups of study research centers that help provide clinical care for participant with ALS. These groups are in Europe and the United States and are called:
The main goal of this study is to collect safety information in participants with SOD-1 ALS who were in either of the groups.
The main question researchers want to answer in this study is:
An adverse event is a health problem that may or may not be caused by a drug during the study. An adverse event is considered serious when it results in death, is life-threatening, causes lasting problems, or requires hospital care.
Researchers will also learn more about:
This study will be done as follows:
The primary objectives of this study are to describe demographic and clinical characteristics of participants with superoxide dismutase 1-amyotropic lateral sclerosis (SOD1-ALS); to describe the frequency of SAEs among participants with SOD1-ALS, including serious neurologic events previously reported in clinical trial participants (e.g., myelitis, radiculitis, aseptic meningitis, increased intracranial pressure, and/or papilloedema).
The secondary objectives of this study are to describe the frequency of new comorbid conditions, pregnancy and pregnancy outcome among participants with SOD1-ALS; to describe the frequency of treatment discontinuation among participants with SOD1-ALS treated with tofersen.
NHC registry has started the data collection while the Treatment Research Initiative to Cure ALS (TRICALS) is yet to start.
