Charcot-marie-tooth (CMT) disease is caused by mutations in the genes that affect the structure and function of peripheral nerves that control movement and sensation. Defective genes can cause the nerve fibers (axons) or myelin sheaths (the fat layer that separates nerve fibers) to degenerate in the peripheral nerves. This weakens the transmission of nerve signals between the brain and limbs, causing muscle atrophy and decreased sensation. As charcot-marie-tooth disease progresses, symptoms will spread from the feet and legs to the hands and arms.
The severity of symptoms (that includes weakness in the legs, ankles, and feet, decreased muscle mass in the legs and feet, high foot arches, curled toes (hammer toes), and decreased walking and running ability, among others) varies from person to person, including between family members. The different types and subtypes of CMT are determined based on the mutant gene, genetic type, nerve conduction velocity, age of onset, disease severity, clinical symptoms, and peripheral nerve injury. The different types of CMT diseases include CMT1, CMT2, CMT3, CMT4, CMTX, and DICMT.
Market Dynamics
Increasing prevalence of charcot-marie tooth disease is one major factor driving the market growth. For instance, according to a data published by the Medscape in January 2021, the prevalence of CMT disease is one in 2,500 population, which is approximately 125,000 people in the U.S. The incidence of CMT 1 is 15 per 100,000 population; the incidence of CMT 1A is 10.5 per 100,000 population, or 70% of CMT 1. The incidence of CMT 2 is seven per 100,000 people. CMT X patients account for at least 10-20% of CMT syndrome patients.
