Study of genetic brain diseases
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study follows people with a confirmed genetic nerve or brain disease over time, collecting blood and sometimes spinal fluid samples to learn more about the condition. It may help researchers understand how the disease progresses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed genetic nerve or brain disease
- You must be at least 6 years old
- You must agree to give blood samples
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding
- You cannot be in another treatment study that might interfere with this one

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how to create laboratory models of genetic diseases using stem cells made from people’s cells. It may help researchers understand disease causes and how treatments could work, using genetic patients (and some non-patient controls).
This study uses a new, advanced DNA sequencing method to look for a specific type of genetic change (called 'repeat expansion') that may cause neurological disorders. The goal is to help people who have a neurological condition but whose standard genetic tests did not find the cause.
This study looks at genetic diseases that affect the immune system and the brain. It aims to better understand these conditions by comparing patients, their relatives, and healthy controls.
This study uses advanced DNA analysis to understand confusing genetic test results in people with brain or nerve diseases. It aims to improve diagnosis by reclassifying uncertain genetic findings.
This study is looking at people with inherited (genetic) neurological conditions, as well as their family members, to better understand these diseases. Participants will receive a thorough evaluation, which may help with diagnosis and research.
This trial follows people with genetic neurodegenerative (brain-wasting) disorders over time to better understand how the condition changes. The goal is to learn patterns that could help future treatments or care plans.
