Study your rare eye gene and track retinal disease over time
This study builds a registry and tracks the natural history of rare retinal dystrophies while also testing people for disease-causing gene variants. It may help researchers better understand what causes retinal degeneration and how it progresses.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 4 years+ - NCT02450851Recruiting
Find answers for undiagnosed medical conditions using genetic testing
This study helps look for causes of health problems when no one has been able to give a diagnosis. It tests and shares medical and genetic information (with privacy protections) so researchers can better match findings to possible causes.

Rett syndrome genetic registry for MECP2 changes
This trial is a registry that collects health and genetic information from people with Rett syndrome. It may help researchers better understand how MECP2 loss-of-function changes lead to symptoms and how to support patients.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges birth–99 years - NCT01193088Recruiting
Study genetics to find who modifies Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT)
This study looks at DNA changes in families with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), especially a known gene duplication called PMP22. It aims to understand what other genetic factors may change how CMT shows up, which could help future diagnosis and care.

Testing a New DMD Treatment Given Every 4 Weeks
This study tests whether a new medicine called zeleciment rostudirsen can help ambulatory (walking) males with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The medicine is given as an intravenous infusion (through a vein) every 4 weeks and works by helping the body produce a protective muscle protein.

What taking part in a genetic disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
