Understanding Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome: Research Study
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Digestive system, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing, Skin clinical trials.
This research study investigates Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS), a rare genetic condition affecting blood clotting and skin color. Researchers are looking for people with HPS or their family caregivers to participate in clinical evaluations and questionnaires to better understand the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome, or you are a family member caring for someone with HPS
- You are between 1 and 80 years old
- If you only participate in a symptom questionnaire, you must be at least 18 years old
- You are not pregnant
- You are able to understand and agree to the study (or have a legal guardian who can consent for you)

This study follows people with or suspected Hyper-IgE syndrome (a rare immune disorder causing repeated infections and skin problems) to understand how the condition develops, how best to manage it, and which genes are involved. Researchers also welcome healthy relatives of patients to help identify genetic patterns.
This study aims to learn more about rare disorders of purine and pyrimidine metabolism (DPPM), which can affect the brain, immune system, kidneys, and muscles. Researchers will study people with these disorders, their family members, and healthy volunteers to better understand the condition over time.
This study helps researchers understand Chediak-Higashi syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects how the body fights infections and controls bleeding. Participation involves medical evaluation and may help guide future treatments.
This trial is a global patient registry that collects health information from people diagnosed with PNH (a blood condition caused by a genetic change in the PIG-A gene). It may help researchers better understand the condition and what care people receive.
This study investigates Proteus syndrome, a rare condition that causes abnormal overgrowth of body parts, and related disorders. Researchers want to understand how these conditions develop, progress over time, and affect people of different ages—including how they may change into adulthood.
This study looks at how hormones, metabolism, and body signals relate to pulmonary arterial hypertension. You may be eligible if you (or a family member) have idiopathic, inherited, or related pulmonary arterial hypertension, and you can do required blood and other testing.
