Finding cell markers for rare eye diseases in adults
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks for biological markers in the blood or eye samples of people with rare eye diseases compared to healthy volunteers. It aims to better understand and diagnose these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have one of the listed rare eye diseases (or you are a healthy volunteer without one).
- You are willing and able to give written consent to participate.
- You are covered by a health insurance plan (like Social Security in France).
- You have not had eye surgery in the last 3 months.
- You have not changed your eye drop medications in the last month.

This study looks for new ways to diagnose and track eye disorders using imaging and genetic tests. It may help find better treatments for conditions linked to blood vessel and nerve problems in the eye.
This study looks at a specific lab marker (sCD160) in blood and eye fluids to see how it relates to poor blood flow in the retina. You may be asked for samples taken during eye surgery to help doctors understand the disease better.
This is a national study that follows people with certain rare eye birth defects and their families, including pregnant people. It aims to better understand how often related health issues happen and to study inheritance (DNA) in families.
This study looks for proteins in the blood and eye fluids that may help doctors better understand and monitor three common eye conditions: age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinal detachment. If you have one of these conditions, or if you are a healthy control with no retinal disease, you may be able to help by giving a small sample of blood or fluid from your eye during a routine procedure.
This study collects samples like blood and a small skin biopsy (and sometimes urine, hair, or saliva) to better understand causes of eye diseases. The goal is to study eye conditions and may help researchers build better tests or treatments.
This study builds a registry and tracks the natural history of rare retinal dystrophies while also testing people for disease-causing gene variants. It may help researchers better understand what causes retinal degeneration and how it progresses.
