Study of bone disorders and inherited genetic factors
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at bone (skeletal) disorders to better understand possible genetic causes, especially when phosphate levels or bone growth are affected. You may join either if you (or your child) has a bone disorder, or if you’re an unaffected family member who might help compare results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your child has a bone (skeletal) disorder, or you’re an unaffected family member of someone with one
- Your bone disorder may involve phosphate levels, abnormal bone overgrowth, or unclear cause findings
- You must be willing and able to follow study steps and be available for the whole study period
- You must be age 2 months or older
- A parent/guardian can sign consent if the person can’t
- You should not be pregnant to join

This study tracks people with bone diseases or problems with how their body handles calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals. Researchers want to understand how these conditions develop and change over time to help improve future treatments.
This is an observational study that follows people who have or may develop parathyroid-related conditions. The goal is to better understand how these problems change over time and what patterns show up, which can help improve future care.
This study looks at genetic causes of skeletal (bone growth) disorders in people who show signs based on height and bone imaging. Genetic testing may help explain what’s behind the condition, especially when it seems inherited.
This early study looks at how the body’s handling of phosphate may affect aging and bone health. It is meant for people with certain rare genetic conditions that change phosphate levels, to better understand their biology and responses to study tests.
This study collects blood and tissue samples from children with bone or growth plate problems to build a research database. It aims to better understand these conditions and may help improve future treatments.
This study looks at how certain muscle and bone diseases show up in people and in their family members. It may help researchers better describe these conditions and improve future diagnosis and care.
