Australian CADASIL study: learning more about this condition
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is building a group of Australians with CADASIL (a genetic condition that affects blood vessels in the brain) to learn more about the disease. As a participant, you will have a medical exam, a blood test, and a short memory test.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You can visit a testing location in person.
- You are willing to have a medical exam, blood test, and a short memory test (about 20 minutes).
- You either have a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of CADASIL, are a close relative of someone with CADASIL, or are a healthy volunteer without CADASIL.

This trial studies CADASIL (a genetic blood-vessel condition in the brain) by following people over time with MRI scans, blood draws, and questionnaires. It may help researchers better understand how the condition changes and how factors like medications affect outcomes.
This study looks at how genetic and brain imaging changes relate to symptoms in people with CADASIL, a genetic condition that affects small blood vessels in the brain and can cause strokes. It aims to better understand the disease to improve future care.
This study builds a group “registry” of people affected by CADASIL (a genetic brain blood-vessel condition) and people who carry the NOTCH3 mutation, even if they have no symptoms. It helps researchers learn more about the condition over time and compare experiences between patients, carriers, and healthy relatives or controls.
This study follows people with CADASIL over time to learn more about the condition. It may help researchers understand how CADASIL progresses and improve care for patients.
This study uses MRI scans to look at how well the small blood vessels in the brain work in people with CADASIL, a genetic condition that can cause strokes and cognitive problems. The goal is to develop a new test to better understand and monitor the disease. Participants will have an MRI and may also do simple tasks during the scan.
This study collects blood and other biological samples from people with rare diseases affecting the brain's small blood vessels, such as CADASIL, and from healthy volunteers. The samples are used to better understand these diseases and improve future diagnosis and treatment.
