Natural history of mitochondrial diseases
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study follows people with mitochondrial disease over time to learn more about how the condition progresses. It may help researchers find better ways to manage and treat mitochondrial diseases in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of mitochondrial disease (by a doctor or genetic test).
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must be under the care of a neurologist for your condition.
- You must be willing to join the Australian Mitochondrial Disease Clinical Registry.
- You must be willing to have genetic testing done.
- You must be able to give your consent to participate.

This study aims to learn more about mitochondrial DNA diseases by building a group of people with these conditions. The information gathered may help doctors give better genetic counseling to families.
This study follows families using mitochondrial donation to reduce the risk from a confirmed mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutation. It aims to learn outcomes over about 18 months of the child’s life and whether the treatment works well and safely for families like yours.
This trial builds a large database and collection of lab results, and possibly tissue samples, from people with suspected or diagnosed mitochondrial conditions. It helps researchers learn more about these disorders and mitochondrial DNA changes, which may improve future diagnosis and treatments.
This study looks for the cause of suspected mitochondrial diseases by combining multiple lab tests on muscle and skin samples, plus genetic testing results. If your current gene tests didn’t find an answer, this could help researchers learn what might be causing your condition.
This trial checks if looking at RNA from blood or skin cells can help diagnose suspected mitochondrial disease. It may help people who have a genetic variant of uncertain significance thought to affect mitochondria.
This study collects information about people who have a suspected or confirmed mitochondrial disease. It aims to better understand how the disease looks over time, which can help future treatments.
