Eye imaging for X-linked disorders
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study uses special eye imaging to look at changes in the brain and eyes of people with creatine transporter deficiency (a condition that affects brain energy) or fragile X syndrome. It aims to find a way to see these brain changes without needing a biopsy or spinal tap.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a male with creatine transporter deficiency (confirmed SLC6A8 mutation) or fragile X syndrome (confirmed FMR1 mutation), or a female with creatine transporter deficiency
- Males must be between 5 and 35 years old; females between 5 and 60 years old
- You need to be a native French speaker
- You or your parent/guardian must sign a consent form and agree to be told about any results found during tests
- You must have French health insurance (sécurité sociale) coverage
- If you are a healthy control, you cannot have any history of learning disabilities or neurological/psychiatric problems

This study explores how people with Down syndrome or Fragile X syndrome learn to trust others. It uses simple tasks and a brain scan (MRI) to compare their responses with those of typically developing children and young adults.
This trial tests a new medicine called CTH120 to see if it is safe and helpful for adult men with Fragile X syndrome. You may be able to join if you meet certain health and age requirements.
This trial tests an experimental medicine called SPG601 to see if it can help with Fragile X syndrome symptoms in adult males. It also checks how safe the medicine is.
This study aims to find the best ways to measure how creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) affects people. It includes both males and females with CTD, as well as healthy volunteers, to compare results and develop better tests.
This study follows people with a rare genetic condition called 7q11.23 microduplication over time to understand how it affects development, learning, and health. Participants will have interviews, thinking and memory tests, and an MRI brain scan.
This study tests whether a daily dose of CBD (a cannabis compound) can change brain activity in people with Fragile X syndrome. It also includes a healthy control group to compare results.
