Thyroid Health Study in RASopathies (ECORAS)
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at the thyroid (a small gland in your neck that controls energy) in people with RASopathies (genetic conditions like Noonan syndrome). They will use an ultrasound to check the shape and structure of the thyroid and test your thyroid's function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed genetic RASopathy (like Noonan syndrome).
- You must be between 3 and 25 years old.
- You cannot have had radiation therapy or significant radiation exposure.
- You cannot have an iodine deficiency or be taking large amounts of iodine (including some medications).
- You cannot have a congenital (from birth) thyroid condition or severe obesity with complications.

This study looks at people who have a RASopathy—a genetic condition—and also have solid tumors (tumor growths not in blood). To join, your RASopathy must be confirmed by genetic testing, not only by symptoms.
This study looks at people with certain inherited genetic conditions called RASopathies and their family members. It helps researchers understand these conditions and how genetic changes run in families, which may improve future care.
This study looks at medical records of children with a genetic condition called RASopathy who developed thickened heart muscle and needed hospital care for heart failure in their first six months of life. The goal is to understand how the heart condition progresses over time.
This study looks at how puberty develops in people with RASopathies. It aims to understand the process better by studying those who have already completed puberty.
This study collects and stores health samples and information from people with RASopathy conditions (like Noonan or Costello syndromes) and from family members who may not have the condition. It helps researchers understand these disorders and supports future studies that could lead to better care.
This study looks at cholesterol and fat levels in people with Noonan syndrome or related conditions. It aims to understand how these levels change with age, gender, and genetic cause.
