Disease-modifying therapies (DMT)

DMT received CR  PR  datestamped 

Specifies whether the individual has ever received a disease-modifying therapy for their neuromuscular condition.

For SMA, these currently include nusinersen (Spinraza), Zolgensma (AVXS-101) and risdiplam (Evrysdi).

Record

DMT episode CR  PR    episode   

The episode dates must be provided if and only if the therapy is administered over a period of time (currently nusinersen and risdiplam). For a therapy with a single administration (currently Zolgensma), the item DMT single administration date must be used. Registries should ensure that the individual's weight approximately at the beginning of the therapy is collected in the item Weight; in particular, if the therapy began before the baseline entry of the registration, the data collection form should include a field for the weight at therapy begin, which is then mapped to a value of Weight and datestamped with the therapy start date.

Note that the existence of an instance of this record implies that the individual is receiving or has received the therapy specified in DMT. It is not possible to express the fact that the individual has not received or is not receiving a certain therapy.

Consistency rules:

A value for DMT ongoing date must be provided if and only if DMT status has the value Ongoing. If DMT single administration date is provided, all other dates in this record must be empty.

DMT single administration date CR  PR 

Date on which the individual received a single administration of the therapy specified in DMT.

Item type: date
DMT stopping reason CR 

Reason the individual has stopped receiving the therapy specified in DMT (in the case of a continuous treatment), or has received a different disease-modifying therapy after receiving a single-administration therapy specified in DMT.

In addition to the values listed for this item, registries may add further options in their data collection forms if relevant locally, and/or provide a free text field. However, additional options not specified in this dataset must not be provided in a data submission for a TREAT-NMD enquiry. Future revisions of this dataset may include additional values, and these can be suggested (along with justification) by using the “Report an issue with this item” function.

If Side effects from procedure or Side effects from drug is selected, a registry may remind the user to enter the side effects using the items in the group “Hospitalisations and comorbidities”. A registry may arrange their data collection form to collect side effects in any way that works best for them, for example in the same place as the disease-modifying therapies. However, the data structure must match the dataset items for hospitalisations and comorbidities to allow standardised data submission in case of enquiries.

DMT administration intervals

This item currently only applies to nusinersen. For any episodes where DMT is not nusinersen, this item is not intended for collection.

Comma-separated list of ISO 8601 durations that specify the intervals between the administrations. Repeating intervals may be specified as ISO 8601 recurring intervals by prepending Rn/, where n either is the number of repetitions, or absent in the case of unbounded repetitions.

For example, P14D, P14D, P30D, R/P4M specifies the (as of writing) current recommended dosing schedule for nusinersen: three loading doses administered at 14-day intervals, a fourth loading dose administered 30 days after the third dose, and maintenance doses once every 4 months thereafter.

DMT administration schedule deviation CR 

This item currently only applies to nusinersen and risdiplam. For any episodes where DMT is not nusinersen or risdiplam, this item is not intended for collection and thus not mandatory. However, this item may be applied to future disease-modifying therapies in subsequent versions of this dataset.

Deviation definition for nusinersen: Specifies whether the interval between any two consecutive administrations of nusinersen differs by 14 days or more from that specified in the applicable prescription information.

Deviation definition for risdiplam: Specifies whether the individual has ever failed to take the prescribed dosage of risdiplam for 7 consecutive days or more during this episode.

Item type: yes/no

DMT administration schedule deviation reason CR 

This item currently only applies to nusinersen and risdiplam. For any episodes where DMT is not nusinersen or risdiplam, this item is not intended for collection and thus not mandatory. However, this item may be applied to future disease-modifying therapies in subsequent versions of this dataset.

Reason for not following the dosing schedule generally recommended at the time of administration. In case the value of DMT administration schedule deviation is Yes, this item must be collected. Otherwise, in particular when there was a schedule deviation which does not satisfy the condition specified in DMT administration schedule deviation, this item may also be collected.

In addition to the values listed for this item, registries may add further options in their data collection forms if relevant locally, and/or provide a free text field. However, additional options not specified in this dataset must not be provided in a data submission for a TREAT-NMD enquiry. Future revisions of this dataset may include additional values, and these can be suggested (along with justification) by using the “Report an issue with this item” function.
