Study of Aicardi syndrome in X-linked disorders
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial looks at people with features that suggest Aicardi syndrome, a rare condition that can affect the brain and eyes and may include seizures. Researchers want to better understand the condition and how it shows up, which may help guide care in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have features that suggest Aicardi syndrome (not all features are required)
- Your brain imaging suggests missing development of the corpus callosum
- Your eye exam shows specific abnormal eye findings called chorioretinal lacunae
- You have seizures that may include infantile spasms
