Exploration of Gross Motor Function in Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Background: Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a spectrum of motor abilities. While the Aicardi-Goutières syndrome severity score favors severely impacted individuals, there is an unmet need to define tools measuring function across the Aicardi-Goutières syndrome spectrum as potential outcome assessments for future clinical trials. Methods: Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM-88) and AGS Severity Scale were administered in individuals affected by Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (n = 71). We characterized the performance variability by genotype. Derived versions of the GMFM-88, including the GMFM-66, GMFM-66 item set (GMFM-66IS), and GMFM-66 Basal&Ceiling (GMFM-66BC) were calculated. The Aicardi-Goutières syndrome cohort was divided into
