Collaboration for Down Syndrome Progress Research Study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health clinical trials.
This research study aims to better understand Down syndrome by collecting health information, family history, and sometimes brain imaging or sleep data from children and adults with Down syndrome and their families. The goal is to advance knowledge that could improve health and development for people with Down syndrome.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your child has been diagnosed with Down syndrome (any type: Trisomy 21, mosaic, or translocation)
- Your primary home language is English, Spanish, or Portuguese
- You can attend visits in person or by video call
- A parent or caregiver can provide accurate information about health history and family background
- For some parts of the study, a biological parent may need to provide a blood or saliva sample
- For imaging or sleep studies, you don't have other genetic conditions or serious medical issues that would make participation unsafe

This is a study registry that collects information from people with Down syndrome (or certain forms like mosaic or partial trisomy 21) and their families. It helps researchers learn about health and needs over time and makes it easier to contact people for future studies.
This study looks at how genetics and gene-regulation (how genes turn on and off) differ between close family members who have different Down syndrome status. Researchers hope the findings will help explain why Down syndrome outcomes can vary even in very closely related people.
This study enrolls adults with Down syndrome to better understand how thinking and memory develop and change over time. It may help by building a “trial-ready” group and by measuring thinking in a careful, consistent way.
This study looks at genetic-related and blood/biologic markers in people with an inherited (genetic) intellectual disability. The goal is to better understand these differences and how they might relate to the condition.
This study includes people of many ages to help researchers learn more about Trisomy (an extra chromosome condition) in those with and without Down syndrome. It may help improve understanding and future care for people affected by chromosome differences.
This study looks at how well a brain chemical system works in adults with Down syndrome as they age, including how it relates to Alzheimer’s-type brain changes and thinking skills. It uses brain scans and memory/thinking tests to see whether these measures can help track risk or changes over time.
