Résumé

5q-Associated spinal muscular atrophy is a hereditary neuromuscular disease leading to progressive muscle weakness in which fatigue occurs and affects quality of life. Treatment with the antisense oligonucleotide nusinersen has been shown to improve motor function. Fatigue can be measured within the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). FSS is a self-reported questionnaire consisting of nine items to quantify fatigue severity within the last week. Higher values indicating a higher severity. Using the FSS, fatigue was measured in 28 adult patients, subdivided into ambulatory and non-ambulatory, suffering from a genetically confirmed 5q-SMA under treatment with nusinersen in accordance with the label. Correlations were performed among FSS and motor scales, 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and Hammersmiths Functional Motor Scale Expanded (HFMSE). Evaluation was performed prior to treatment initiation and after 6 and 10 months. The mean FSS score for all 28 patients at baseline was 4.61 ± 1.44. After 6 months mean FSS score significantly reduced to 3.92 ± 1.35. After 10 months mean FSS score had not differed from baseline, 3.84 ± 1.25. A moderate negative correlation of the difference of FSS and 6MWT after 6 months compared to baseline conditions was measured. Nusinersen reduces fatigue as measured by the FSS in adult patients with 5q-SMA transiently after initiation of treatment. There was no reduction of FSS 10 months after the beginning of treatment when compared to baseline.
