Screening for inner-ear tumors in people with Von Hippel-Lindau
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial focuses on checking whether a specific inner-ear tumor (called an endolymphatic sac tumor) can be found earlier in people with Von Hippel-Lindau (vHL) disease. It may help doctors detect problems sooner so you can discuss treatment options earlier, if needed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of Von Hippel-Lindau (vHL), either by genetic testing or by clinical signs (and possibly family history)
- You must be at least 15 years old
- You had an ear hearing test (like an audiogram) within the last 12 months
- You had an MRI scan of your brain that includes the inner ear within 12 months
- Your hearing test and MRI should be done within 12 months of each other

This study is for people with von Hippel-Lindau (vHL) disease to collect information for research. It may help researchers better understand the condition and how to care for people with it.
This study follows people who have von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) over time to better understand how the condition changes. It may help doctors plan future treatments by collecting long-term health information.
This study looks at how early changes in kidney cells can lead to tumors in people with VHL disease. It may help understand why some people develop kidney cancer and how to prevent it.
This study follows children with Von Hippel-Lindau disease to understand how hemangioblastomas in the brain and spine grow over time. It looks for patterns that might predict future problems, so doctors can plan better care.
This trial studies the natural course and management of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors in people with von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) disease. It may help doctors better predict how these pancreatic findings change over time and how to manage them.
This trial tests the drug belzutifan (a pill taken by mouth) in people with VHL syndrome who have kidney or other VHL-related tumors that are growing or can be measured. The study looks at how well belzutifan works in real-world conditions and whether certain genetic factors affect how the drug works.
