Tell your story and make a difference by joining the NEW patient-powered LGMD2A/Calpainopathy Registry!

C3 IS EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE OUR NEW LGMD2A/CALPAINOPATHY REGISTRY. The registry will improve our understanding of the symptoms of Calpainopathy (including LGMD2A/R1 and LGMD1I/D4) and how they change over time. The study will also allow participants, if they choose, to be contacted about research studies and clinical trials. Patient-entered data is collected through a secure web-based application developed and maintained by the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD®).

The purpose of the LGMD2A/Calpainopathy Registry is to bring the Calpainopathy community together and collect data that is an essential requirement for policy makers, academic researchers, and therapeutics companies to advance treatments for the disease. Some of the goals of the Calpainopathy Patient Registry are:

  • To describe the people who have LGMD2A/Calpainopathy and to better understand the stages of the disease and the different ways the disease affects people.
  • To understand how LGMD2A/Calpainopathy changes over a person’s lifetime.
  • To help to develop management guidelines to improve the care and quality of life for people with LGMD2A/Calpainopathy.
  • To identify people with LGMD2A/Calpainopathy who might be willing to take part in other research studies or clinical trials.
