LCAT Deficiency Natural History Study
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tracks people with LCAT deficiency over time to learn more about how the condition affects the body. It does not test a treatment, but helps researchers understand the disease better so they can design future studies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with primary LCAT deficiency, or have a genetic test showing two LCAT gene mutations that cause the condition.
- You can be any age, male or female.
- You or your legal guardian must be able to understand and sign a consent form.
- If you are deceased, your family may be asked to allow use of your medical records, if local rules allow.

This study looks at people with rare or unusual cholesterol, fat, or heart-related conditions. It helps researchers learn more about these disorders and improve testing. You do not need to have a known diagnosis to join initially.
This study looks at body chemistry (cholesterol-related lab findings) and physical features in people with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome and related rare genetic cholesterol disorders. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and how they affect the body.
This study observes people with lipodystrophy to better understand how the condition develops and affects the body over time. It may help researchers learn who is most affected and guide future treatments.
This study looks at how your body processes fatty acids after meals in people with lipoprotein lipase deficiency (a rare genetic condition). It also compares results to people without the condition, which may help researchers understand metabolism and guide future care.
This study follows people with SLC13A5 deficiency (a rare genetic condition that affects brain development) to learn more about the disease over time. It collects health information, assessments, and samples to help understand the condition and plan future treatments.
This study keeps a protected record of people with Lysosomal Acid Lipase (LAL) deficiency to learn more about the condition over time. It may help researchers better understand how patients are doing and support future studies.
