Intervention Type: Diagnostic test, Other
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

The aim of this study is to determine the clinical spectrum and natural progression of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias (HSP) and related disorders in a prospective multicenter natural history study, identify digital, imaging and molecular biomarkers that can assist in diagnosis and therapy development and study the genetic etiology and molecular mechanisms of these diseases.

Estimated Completion Date: 2041-08
Participants
Target number of participants: 2000
Treatments
Primary participant:
Participants affected by hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) or a phenotypically related disorder Primary participants will be followed at annual intervals. The workup includes clinical, imaging, sensor-based, patient/observer reported and molecular outcome parameters and biosampling.~Participants with unknown genetic diagnosis may receive genetic testing including whole exome or whole genome sequencing and other OMICS techniques.
Secondary participant/ First or second-degree
First or second degree unaffected family members of primary participants. Secondary participants may undergo the same study procedures as primary participants.
Unrelated healthy control
Unrelated healthy controls Healthy controls may undergo the same study procedures as primary participants.
