Genome-wide sequencing for rare diseases in Ontario
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at how genome-wide sequencing (a test that reads all your DNA) is being used for people with rare diseases in Ontario. It aims to improve how this test is offered and followed up, which may help you get clearer answers about your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had genome-wide sequencing in Ontario.
- You are a clinician (not a geneticist) in Ontario who has ordered this test for a patient.
- You are a caregiver of a patient who had this test through a non-geneticist clinician in Ontario.
- If you are a caregiver, you must be 18 years old or older.

This study aims to use advanced genetic testing to better understand rare and genetic diseases. It may help find a diagnosis or guide personalized care for you or your child.
This study looks at using whole genome sequencing in newborns and families with ongoing pregnancies, including those conceived naturally or with fertility treatments. It aims to better understand and manage genetic disease risks early.
This research study tests a new way to screen newborns for hundreds of genetic diseases using a sample of their blood or saliva. It aims to find conditions early so your baby can get the right care sooner.
This study offers genome sequencing (a complete look at your child's DNA) to help diagnose a suspected rare disease faster. It's for children who are newly referred to the genetics clinic at SickKids or CHEO and haven't had this type of testing before.
This study looks at how well a special type of gene testing (called sequencing) works for people with cancer. It aims to learn if this test helps doctors choose better treatments.
This study uses advanced gene sequencing to look for the genetic cause of rare diseases that haven't been explained yet. You or a family member might join to help find a diagnosis and contribute to medical research.
