Adult Phenotype of CHD2-Associated Disorders

Background and Objectives Pathogenic CHD2 variants are associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. While pediatric CHD2 phenotypes have been readily explored, adult phenotypes are not well understood. We aimed to investigate the phenotypic spectrum of...

While pediatric CHD2 phenotypes have been readily explored, adult phenotypes are not well understood. We aimed to investigate the phenotypic spectrum of adult patients with CHD2 variants. Methods Patients 18 years or older with likely pathogenic or pathogenic (LP/P) CHD2 variants were included. We used standardized tools to evaluate current seizures, medication use, sleep, gastrointestinal symptoms, pain response, gait, social communication disorder, and adaptive behavioral skills of patients. Results In this prospective study, 14 unrelated adult patients (age range: 18–45 years, median: 21 years) with LP/P CHD2 variants were described. Eleven novel variants were identified. No genotype-phenotype correlations were identified. 79% of adults still have ongoing seizures. Photosensitivity was present in 64% of adult patients. Autism spectrum disorder was diagnosed in 71% of patients. Only 29% were able to read and understand material at a sixth-grade level or higher. Behavioral issues were reported in 100% of adult patients, and 71% had internalizing features, such as anxiety. Self-injurious behaviors were present in 50%. Only 43% could ambulate independently. Additional characteristics included reflux (36%), constipation (71%), and abnormal pain responsiveness (43%). 1 patient presented with nonepileptic breath-holding spells leading to cyanosis. No patient could perform all basic activities of daily living independently, all the time. Higher seizure severity was associated with worse nonseizure outcomes (p = 0.04). Discussion Most adults with CHD2 continue to have seizures, and seizure severity is associated with worse comorbidities such as maladaptive behaviors, gait, gastrointestinal, sleep, and abnormal pain responsiveness. Longevity has not been systematically studied in this group of patients. Here we describe a group of adult patients (up to 45 years of age) and the natural history of this condition. These data may provide prognostic insights for families of pediatric patients and help identify key points to be addressed in future precision trials for patients with CHD2 variants.Facultad de Ciencias Experimentales20242024-11-2520242024-11-25journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/10641/7629reponame:DDFV.
