Study genetics in heterotaxy and certain heart defects
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at the genes behind heterotaxy and related congenital (from-birth) heart defects. You may be able to join if you have this condition—or if you are a close family member of someone who does.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects
- Or you are a family member of someone with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects
- You must not be without heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects
- Family members must also be related to someone who has heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects

This study creates a DNA bank and a French database for babies and children with certain types of congenital heart defects, to better understand genetic causes. You’ll be asked to have a blood test and share consent, even though care can continue as usual at the study hospital.
This study looks at genetic (DNA) changes that may cause cardiomyopathy, a disease where the heart muscle is weakened. It may help families understand possible causes and inform future care.
This study looks at how genes may contribute to congenital heart disease. It may help researchers better understand causes and risk in families like yours.
This study looks for chromosome changes in children born with heart defects. It may help doctors understand why some children have these conditions.
This study looks at the genetic material in the fluid around the baby (amniotic fluid) and in the placenta to better understand complex heart defects in unborn babies. The goal is to find new clues that could help doctors care for these babies before and after birth.
This study looks at the genes behind cardiomyopathy (a disease of the heart muscle). It may help explain why it happens in your family and guide better care for you and relatives.
