Detailed Description:

This is a prospective natural history study on patients with clinically defined sIBM. Participants will be assessed every 6 months over two years (five visits total). We will include 150 participants with sporadic IBM, diagnosed according to established criteria. Participants will require an routine serum sample via blood draw to evaluate for NT5c1A antibody status. This testing will be performed at Washington University School of Medicine in the Neuromuscular Laboratory. Investigators will be blinded to antibody status. A subset of participants (40) will undergo a muscle biopsy at the Baseline visit.

Aim 1. To determine for the first time whether NT5c1A antibodies mediate disease progression over a two-year interval in patients with sIBM.

We will perform a prospective, non-interventional, observational study on patients with sIBM with follow up and evaluations every 6 months over a two-year time frame. Primary analyses are: 1) the rates of disease progression and severity as measured by rates of decline in IBM Functional Rating Scale (IBMFRS) score and Timed Get Up and Go (TUG); 2) the presence or absence of serum antibodies to NT5c1A; and 3) the presence and frequency of variant T-cells in the serum and skeletal muscle.

Aim 2. To perform a detailed morphological, histochemical and immunohistochemical analysis of fresh muscle biopsy specimens obtained from a subset of patients with sIBM.

Aim 3. To characterize the distribution of "immunosenescent" lymphocytes in circulating blood from patients with sIBM.

Aim 4. To quantify the decline in the respiratory function of sIBM patients.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Inclusion Body Myositis Functional Rating Scale (IBMFRS) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    The IBMFRS is a 10 item questionnaire. Scores for each item range from 0 to 4. There is a total maximum score of 40 and minimum score of 0. The higher the score the better functional status of the person.

  2. Timed Up and Go (TUG) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    Stand up from a chair, walk 3 meters, sit back down in chair

  3. Frequency of immunophenotypic abnormalities in blood and muscle [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    Laboratory assessment

  4. Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) (sitting) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    breathing test


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Manual Muscle Testing [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    muscle strength testing

  2. Hand Held Dynamometry [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    muscle strength testing

  3. Sydney Swallow Questionnaire [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    swallow ability questionnaire

  4. EAT-10 Questionnaire [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    swallow ability questionnaire

  5. NIH PROMIS questionnaires [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    quality of life questionnaires

  6. Forced Vital Capacity (supine) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    breathing test done while lying down

  7. Maximum Inspiratory Pressure/Maximum Expiratory Pressure [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    breathing tests

  8. sporadic inclusion body myositis physical functioning assessment (sIFA) [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline to Month 24 ]
    functional ability questionnaire


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
DNA and RNA will be isolated from blood and muscle samples and stored for future research
