Predicting and treating adolescent idiopathic scoliosis with genetic data
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at genetic and physical markers to better predict and treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). It may help tailor care to each patient.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
- You are between 10 and 18 years old.
- You are willing to sign a consent form and come back for check-ups.
- You can have X-rays, blood tests, and genetic tests.

This study tests a new 3D imaging method to assess scoliosis by comparing back height difference and trunk rotation angle. It aims to find a simpler way to measure spinal curves in teenagers with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
This study looks at how the brain and muscles work together in teens with spinal curves (scoliosis). It uses skin sensors and brain wave tests to understand muscle control, which may help improve treatments.
This trial tests a 3D depth camera to measure spinal curves in teens with scoliosis. It may help avoid repeated X-rays while tracking your curve.
This study looks at cell “signaling factors” to understand what predicts how adolescent idiopathic scoliosis may change over time. It may help doctors better forecast which curves are more likely to progress and tailor follow-up care.
This study uses MRI and physical measurements to look for early signs of scoliosis (a side-bending of the spine) in children who are at higher risk. It may help doctors understand when scoliosis starts and improve early monitoring.
This trial tests whether a home-based exercise program delivered through video calls can help teens with idiopathic scoliosis. It aims to improve spine curvature and overall well-being without the need to travel to a clinic.
