The primary objective of this study is to quantify disease progression measured by best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the real-world setting among Choroideremia (CHM) participants. The secondary objectives are to describe demographic and baseline clinical characteristics among CHM participants and to match CHM participants in the Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS®) Registry to Biogen's investigator sponsored trial (IST) study population using propensity score matching.
This study is a retrospective cohort study of CHM eyes and participants which will include all eligible participants and eyes with the first documented diagnosis of CHM from July 1st, 2013 to December 31st, 2019 that meet the study criteria. This study will be conducted using data from American Academy of Ophthalmology's (AAO) IRIS® Registry which captures CHM participant's demographics, clinical characteristics and clinical outcomes from 2013.

Matching Participants with CHM in the IRIS® Registry to Biogen's IST Study Population Using Propensity Score (PS) Matching
A propensity score matching approach will be performed to select eligible male CHM participants from IRIS Registry to match Biogen's IST study population. With the approach, the probability of participating in the IST study given the observed baseline participant characteristics will be estimated for each participant. Propensity score will be estimated using logistic regression and pre-specified baseline covariates including participants demographics and clinical characteristics. The propensity match will be considered adequate if all the variables between the PS-matched CHM cohort and IST study cohort have an absolute value of the standardized mean difference (SMD) in PS-score that is less than 0.1.
Time frame: Up to 6 years
