About the NAVIGATE-CIDP Study
The NAVIGATE-CIDP Study looks at how CIDP affects a person’s daily life, based on symptoms and quality-of-life surveys. It also tracks treatment patterns—like why people switch medications—and builds a foundation for future research.
By capturing comprehensive medical records directly from patients across all care sites, this study builds a longitudinal view of disease course — not limited to a single clinical location.
That data will inform understanding of MDEs, HCRU, treatment patterns, and quality of life in these ultra-rare conditions.
- Diagnosed with CIDP by a neurologist
- Receiving healthcare in the United States
- Aged 18 or older
- Able to provide informed consent and HIPAA authorization for medical record release

02 Consent
Flexible, patient-centric consent approaches reduce participation barriers and meet patients where they are.
03 Curate
Ongoing data capture combines longitudinal EHR data and monthly ePROs via self-report.


04 Deliver
