Background: Patient registries are an effective tool in tracking the natural history of rare diseases as well as post-marketing surveillance of novel therapies. The Canadian Neuromuscular Disease Registry (CNDR) is a pan-neuromuscular disease registry that prospectively collects Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)-specific data in 28 clinics across Canada. The objective of this study is to describe real-world data from the CNDR-SMA patient population. Methods: We report cross-sectional data from Canadian SMA patients. Patients were included in analysis if they were active (alive and with follow-up within 24 months). Results: Of 171 SMA patients included in analyses, 37% currently use non-invasive ventilation, 2% invasive ventilation, and 61% no ventilation support. Feeding tubes are used by 27% of patients. and 28% of patients have a history of scoliosis surgery. Of the 171 patients, 137 have had disease-modifying therapy: 96 on nusinersen, 22 on risdiplam, and 19 on onasemnogene abeparvovec (OA). Median (min,max) years of age at therapy initiation was 7 (0,54), 20.5 (5,53), and 1 (0,6), respectively. At therapy initiation, functional status was 32% non-sitters, 38% sitters, and 30% walkers. Conclusions: The CNDR captures a comprehensive SMA dataset that prospectively evaluates real-world data, supporting post-marketing surveillance of novel therapies in Canada.
