Sponsor's own description
Heterozygous mutations in ADCY5 induce hyperactivity of striatal adenylate cyclase type 5 (AC5), manifesting as early-onset hyperkinetic movement disorders. Numerous treatments have been tried without much efficacy thus far. Two patients from the same family reported efficacy of caffeine on paroxysmal episodes, both to prevent episodes and to reduce their duration (efficacy estimated to be around 80%), which was specific to caffeine as it was reproduced with caffeine citrate capsules. Interestingly, there is a rationale underlying this observation. Indeed, caffeine is an antagonist of adenosine A2A receptors (A2AR), which activate AC5 and are localized preferentially in striatal neurons that express dopamine receptors D2 .Caffeine therefore likely induces AC5 inhibition, and thus clinical improvement in patients with hyperactivity of this protein. This observation has been recently published in2019. The investigators will collect preliminary data by interviewing our neurologist and neuropediatric colleagues, in France and abroad since it is a rare disease, on the effect of caffeine on motor symptoms and global clinical status in their ADCY5 patients.
