Can digital tools better track disability in a rare nerve disease? a new study aims to find out.
NCT ID NCT06968975
First seen Jul 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026
Summary
This observational study follows about 200 people in the United States who have chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and still experience disability despite at least three months of standard treatment. Researchers will track changes in disability scores and explore digital biomarkers over one to two years. The goal is to better understand real-world outcomes and how treatment changes affect daily function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help identify better ways to measure disability and treatment response in CIDP, potentially guiding future care.
- What could go wrong
- As an observational study, it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may be influenced by differences in patient care and data collection across sites.

Inclusion Criteria: Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply: * Neurologist-confirmed diagnosis of CIDP found in the medical record, with the last neurologist visit prior to enrollment containing no information that suggests this diagnosis was reversed * Active use of at least one of the following CIDP treatments for three months or longer, with no evidence of discontinuation of this therapy as of the last neurologist visit prior to enrollment * immunoglobulin * corticosteroids, with the exception of prednisone (or equivalent) monotherapy at 10mg or less per day * plasma exchange * efgartigimod alfa * azathioprine * mycophenolate mofetil * cyclosporine * rituximab * methotrexate * Signed informed consent * Residual impairment, disability, or neurological deficits at enrollment, as defined by a raw I-RODS score of 44 or below Exclusion Criteria: Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply: * Evidence of participation in any interventional clinical trial with an investigational drug at the time of enrollment * Hyperreflexia (increased reflexes) recorded in the medical record during a neurological exam the year before enrollment and after CIDP diagnosis * Aged under 18 at the time of enrollment The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.
