Inborn disorder of amino acid transport

This study tests a new type of stem cell transplant for children with primary immune deficiencies or inherited metabolic disorders. The transplant uses stem cells from a half-matched family donor, which are specially processed to remove certain immune cells. The goal is to see if…

This early-stage trial tests a single dose of TSHA-105, a gene therapy injected into the spinal fluid, in 8 people aged 2 to 20 with SLC13A5 citrate transporter disorder. The goal is to see if it is safe and whether it can improve motor and thinking skills. Because the trial is v…

This study tests a bone marrow transplant from a family donor for children under 21 with severe non-cancer blood disorders like sickle cell disease, bone marrow failure, or immune problems. The goal is to see if the transplant can replace the diseased cells with healthy donor cel…

This program offers extra stem cells from a half-matched family donor to patients who are getting a cord blood transplant for serious blood cancers or immune disorders. The goal is to help the bone marrow recover more quickly while the cord blood cells take over permanently. It i…

This study is testing whether a special PET/CT scan using an amino acid tracer can better detect tumors in people with amino acid transport disorders, primary hyperparathyroidism, or glioma. About 500 adults will receive a single injection of the tracer and then get scanned. The …

This study aims to better understand and treat people with certain inherited metabolic or genetic disorders. Researchers will use standard medical tests like blood work and imaging to diagnose and care for participants, who may also join other related studies. The goal is to expa…

This study looks at children with suspected or confirmed genetic and metabolic disorders to find new disease-causing gene mutations. Researchers will analyze blood samples for DNA and metabolites, and in some cases take a small skin sample. The goal is to better understand these …

This study at Necker Hospital in Paris is checking how well patients with inherited metabolic diseases follow their daily oral medication routines. About 200 patients (children aged 7 and up, teens, and adults) will fill out a questionnaire during a regular visit. The goal is to …

This study enrolls up to 15,000 children with known or suspected endocrine or metabolic disorders, along with their family members. Researchers will collect medical records, blood, saliva, and other samples to identify genetic changes linked to these conditions. The goal is to be…

This study is creating a large collection of blood, urine, stool, and heart tissue samples from 10,000 people with and without heart or metabolic conditions. The goal is to store these samples along with medical information to speed up future research into what causes these disea…

This study tests a new communication tool called 'Let's Get REAL' that helps children and teens (ages 8-17) and their families talk together about stem cell transplant or cellular therapy decisions. The goal is to see if the tool is easy to use and helpful for families. About 60 …

This study aims to find the specific genes and mutations that cause rare, inherited forms of kidney stone disease. Researchers will analyze DNA from up to 6,000 participants to understand how these genetic changes lead to stones. The goal is to use this knowledge to develop bette…

This study uses MRI scans to look for brain differences in people with metabolic diseases compared to healthy volunteers. Researchers will track changes over time and link them to body fat and other health measures. About 126 adults will take part at Ulm University Hospital. No d…

This study looks at how often young children (ages 1 to 6) with inherited metabolic diseases develop eating disorders when they are on special diets. Researchers will use a feeding scale to measure eating problems in 200 children. The goal is to understand the link between these …

The SMILE study is tracking 10,000 adults aged 18 and older to see how sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) and metabolic diseases like diabetes influence overall health and lifespan. Researchers will collect data from medical records, tests, and surveys over time. This is an obs…

This study follows 100 children under 18 who are already on a ketogenic diet for conditions like drug-resistant epilepsy, autism, chronic migraine, or brain tumors. Researchers want to see if the diet supports healthy growth, improves symptoms, and boosts quality of life. The die…
