  1. • The change in percentage in individuals 18+ years old

    from 2019 to 2021 was +0.5%, +1%, and +2.3% in OC, aEMR, and ORD, respectively. [Figure 1] Figure 1. Percent of individuals with SMA that were 18 years or older in each cohort (2019-2022), by dataset Percent of Females • Our model suggests that 51% of the population is female. • In this analysis, the percentage of females was 49.5%, 80.4%, and 52.5% in OC, aEMR, and ORD, respectively, in 2021. • The change in percentage of females from 2019 to 2021 was +0.1%, +2.1%, and +0.2% in OC, aEMR, and ORD, respectively. Figure 2. Percent of individuals with SMA that were female in each cohort (2019-2022), by dataset • Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a rare disease with an estimated incidence of 1 in 11,000-15,000 births in the United States (US).1,2 • Estimating national characteristics for the SMA population proves challenging due to low disease prevalence, lack of fully representative standardized US data sources, classification complexities in real-world data (RWD), geographic variability, and more. • Additionally, the impact of treatment development and newborn screening programs continue to change the SMA landscape. • The first SMA treatment was FDA-approved in 2016, and today there are 3 approved treatments. • Since 2018, 48 states have implemented newborn screening programs for SMA. • Cure SMA previously created a model (“SMA Model”) to estimate characteristics of the current US population with SMA. • The objective of this analysis was to utilize multiple large RWD sources as a benchmark to further understand demographics of the US SMA population. The SMA Model • Results from the SMA model were based on internal and external real-world inputs available at the time of creation. • The following assumptions were made: • SMA incidence 1 in 11,0001 • SMA subtype incidence of 60% for Type 1, 30% for Type 2, and 10% for Type 3/41 • Median age of survival of 4 years, 40 years, and 78 years for SMA Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3, respectively2 • Race and ethnicity estimates adjusted based on SMA carrier rates described by Sugarman et al.3; and the 2010 US Census4 Estimating Demographic Characteristics of Individuals with Spinal Muscular Atrophy in the United States: Comparing 3 Large Real-World Databases to the Cure SMA Model Sarah Whitmire MS, Lisa Belter MPH, Mary Curry ND, Mary Schroth MD, FAAP, FCCP Cure SMA, Elk Grove Village, IL Table 1. Description of RWD sources used • Any individual with evidence of SMA within an annual cross-section (2019, 2020, or 2021) was included. • Individuals can be counted in multiple cross-sections • Evidence of SMA was defined as: • At least 2 claims or records with a diagnosis of SMA (ICD-10-CM or SNOMED-CT, depending on data source) at least 30 days apart, or • At least 1 claim or record with a diagnosis of SMA and at least 1 claim or record for an FDA approved treatment for SMA. • This was a descriptive analysis, and no statistical analyses were performed. • Counts and percentages were reported. Race / Ethnicity Distribution • The SMA model predicts 70% of the SMA community is white and non-Hispanic and 16% is Hispanic. • Race and ethnicity were also assessed in aEMR and ORD. However, a high proportion of race/ethnicity data were missing, making the results difficult to interpret. Data is not shown. This research was supported by a grant from Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. Thank you to IQVIA and Optum for executing the analyses in their respective databases. • This analysis characterized the demographics of the prevalent SMA population in the US using 3 large external datasets to compare to the Cure SMA Model. • Among the external datasets: • OC and ORD results were consistent the SMA Model. • In contrast, aEMR showed a substantially higher proportion of adults and females with SMA. • This may be due to baseline data characteristics or how it was sourced. • Therefore, aEMR data by itself may not be appropriate for national SMA estimates. • The OC and ORD datasets show the percent of adults with SMA in 2021 was ~60-62%, which is slightly higher than our model estimate. • This suggests that the survival rates in our model may need to be revisited, and additional analyses are needed to confirm. • Subtle increases in the percentages of adults from 2019-2021 were seen (not statistically tested). • While the databases used in this analysis are large, additional work is needed to understand if the data is truly representative of the US SMA community. • This analysis can be used as a benchmark or comparison as we work to update our model.

Table 2. Final sample sizes in each cross-section Percent of Adults • Our SMA model suggests that 57% of the prevalent SMA population is 18+ years old. • In this analysis, the percentage of individuals 18+ years old was 60.1%, 85.5%, and 62.0% in OC, aEMR, and ORD, respectively, in 2021.
