RESUMEN
The Myotubular and Centronuclear Myopathy Registry is an international research database containing key longitudinal data on a diverse and growing cohort of individuals affected by this group of rare and ultra-rare neuromuscular conditions. It can inform and support all areas of translational research including epidemiological and natural history studies, clinical trial feasibility planning, recruitment for clinical trials or other research studies, stand-alone clinical studies, standards of care development, and provision of real-world evidence data. For ten years, it has also served as a valuable communications tool and provided a link between the scientific and patient communities. With the anticipated advent of disease-modifying therapies for these conditions, the registry is a key resource for the generation of post-authorisation data for regulatory decision-making, real world evidence, and patient-reported outcome measures. In this paper we present some key data from the current 444 registered individuals with the following genotype split: MTM1 n=270, DNM2 n=42, BIN1 n=4, TTN n=4, RYR1 n=12, other n=4, unknown n=108. The data presented are consistent with the current literature and the common understanding of a strong genotype/phenotype correlations in CNM, most notably the data supports the current knowledge that XLMTM is typically the most severe form of CNM. Additionally, we outline the ways in which the registry supports research, and, more generally, the importance of continuous investment and development to maintain the relevance of registries for all stakeholders. Further information on the registry and contact details are available on the registry website at www.mtmcnmregistry.org.
