Do WFS1 gene changes cause a certain type of vision loss?
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at people with a change in the WFS1 gene to see if it can cause a specific form of inherited vision loss. If you have this gene change, joining may help doctors better understand your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a genetic test showing a change in the WFS1 gene.
- You are willing to have your medical records or genetic results reviewed.
- You do not have a change in the WFS2 gene.

This study builds an international online registry to learn how Wolfram syndrome (and related WFS1 conditions) changes over time. It may help researchers understand the disease course and improve future care by collecting health and family history data.
This study follows people with a genetic form of optic atrophy over time to understand how vision changes. It does not test a treatment but helps doctors learn more about the condition to improve care.
This trial tests a single gene therapy injection under the retina for boys with X-linked retinoschisis, a condition that causes vision loss. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and can improve vision.
This trial tests a gene therapy called GS010 given as an injection into the eye for people with vision loss from LHON. It aims to see if it can help improve vision in both eyes.
This study tests a new medicine called fosigotifator for people with vanishing white matter disease (VWM), a rare genetic condition that affects the brain and movement. It aims to see if the medicine is safe and helpful for patients from infancy to adulthood.
This study tests a new imaging technique to better understand and monitor a type of inherited vision loss caused by changes in the USH2A gene. It may help improve diagnosis and future treatment planning for people with this condition.
