Mitochondrial disease registry and sample collection study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial builds a large database and collection of lab results, and possibly tissue samples, from people with suspected or diagnosed mitochondrial conditions. It helps researchers learn more about these disorders and mitochondrial DNA changes, which may improve future diagnosis and treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosed or suspected mitochondrial disorder
- You are an adult (18 or older), including people who carry known mitochondrial DNA changes
- Your lab testing suggests a mitochondrial disorder (if you’re unsure, your doctor may already have done this)
- You may be able to provide medical information and samples (and samples may be accepted from eligible deceased people)
Quick eligibility check

This study collects tissue samples to help researchers learn more about mitochondrial disorders—conditions related to how the body makes energy. It may help by improving genetic understanding for families who suspect an inherited cause.
This study aims to learn more about mitochondrial DNA diseases by building a group of people with these conditions. The information gathered may help doctors give better genetic counseling to families.
This study collects information about people who have a suspected or confirmed mitochondrial disease. It aims to better understand how the disease looks over time, which can help future treatments.
This study looks at immune system problems in people with mitochondrial diseases. It involves a blood draw to understand how the immune system works in these patients.
This study looks for the cause of suspected mitochondrial diseases by combining multiple lab tests on muscle and skin samples, plus genetic testing results. If your current gene tests didn’t find an answer, this could help researchers learn what might be causing your condition.
This study follows people with mitochondrial disease over time to learn more about how the condition progresses. It may help researchers find better ways to manage and treat mitochondrial diseases in the future.
