Natural History Study of HPDL Mutations

This is an observational study for individuals with HPDL gene mutations. The study aims to understand how conditions like Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) and Neonatal Encephalopathy develop over time in people with these mutations. You can join if you have been diagnosed with an HPDL variant, which includes conditions like HPDL-related hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG83) or neurodevelopmental disorder with progressive spasticity and brain white matter abnormalities (NEDSWMA). The main goal is to collect medical information through a patient registry and gather dry blood spot samples to learn more about the disease. The study will assess your clinical information using a questionnaire after 12 months.

Study design
This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 50 participants. It involves creating a patient registry.
What's involved
You would be enrolled in a patient registry and provide dry blood spot samples. Your medical records will be used for data extraction.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your clinical information will be assessed at 12 months using a clinician questionnaire.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Any individuals diagnosed with HPDL variants
Clinical diagnosis can include:
HPDL-related hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP)
HPDL-related neonatal mitochondrial encephalopathy
Spastic paraplegia -83 (SPG83)
Neurodevelopmental disorder with progressive spasticity and brain white matter abnormalities (NEDSWMA)

Exclusion

Any known genetic abnormality (other than HPDL mutation)
Any condition that, in the opinion of the Site Investigator, could put the participant at undue risk and/or would ultimately prevent the completion of study procedures
