This study uses MRI scans and smell tests to understand how the brain processes smells in children with Prader-Willi syndrome. It may help explain why some children have trouble with smell and could lead to better care.
This trial tests whether a gentle, non-invasive nerve stimulation (like a small device on the neck) can help people with Prader-Willi syndrome regulate emotions and improve planning and focus. It may be a new option if you have trouble with emotional control or daily organization.
This is a patient registry that collects information about people with Prader-Willi syndrome. It may help researchers better understand the condition and plan future studies.
This trial tests an investigational drug called CSTI-500 for people with Prader-Willi syndrome who are in the hyperphagia (constant hunger) phase. It aims to see if the drug can improve behavior and reduce overeating. You and your caregiver will need to visit the clinic regularly and answer questions about symptoms.
This study tests a group therapy program designed to help teenagers with Prader-Willi syndrome (a genetic condition) learn better emotional control and regulation skills. Your teen and family would attend weekly group sessions to practice tools for managing emotions like anger or frustration.
This trial studies whether taking prebiotics and probiotics can help children with Prader-Willi syndrome manage obesity. It’s testing a gut-focused approach to weight control over the study period.
