MORC2 gene mutation study for nerve and brain conditions
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how changes in the MORC2 gene relate to nerve or brain development problems. It may help doctors better understand these conditions and improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed change (mutation) in the MORC2 gene linked to nerve issues or learning difficulties.
- You have had or can have a nerve test called an EMG.
- You are covered by a national health insurance or similar plan.
- You agree to provide a blood or tissue sample for testing.
- If you are a minor, your parents or guardians must agree for you.
- You do not have any other known genetic cause for your nerve or brain condition.

This study looks at how Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) or related inherited nerve conditions change over time. It may help researchers better understand what to expect and guide future treatments.
This study follows people who have Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and compares them with people without nerve disease. The goal is to better understand different CMT types and how symptoms and nerve test results change over time.
This study looks at how nerves work and their structure in people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, CIDP, or anti-MAG neuropathy. It may help doctors better understand these conditions.
This research study evaluates people with inherited neurological conditions (nervous system disorders that run in families) and their relatives. Researchers aim to better understand these conditions and improve diagnosis through clinical exams and genetic testing.
This trial looks for new markers of Charcot-Marie-Tooth 1A (CMT1A) early in the disease. Researchers hope to find signs that can help diagnose and track the disease better, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
This study follows people with rare genetic conditions (GM1, GM2, sialidosis, or galactosialidosis) that affect how the body breaks down certain substances in cells. Researchers track how these diseases progress to better understand them and potentially help future patients.
