Inborn disorder of purine or pyrimidine metabolism

This study tests a gene therapy given by IV for ADA-SCID, a rare and life-threatening immune disorder. The treatment uses a modified virus to deliver a working gene, aiming to restore the immune system. Ten participants will be monitored for safety and immune recovery over one ye…

This program provides access to two experimental drugs, doxecitine and doxribtimine, for people with thymine kinase 2 deficiency (TK2d), a rare genetic disorder that can cause severe muscle weakness and early death. It is for children and adults who have a confirmed TK2 gene muta…

This study tests whether a purine-rich diet can lower disease markers in people with AICA-ribosiduria, a rare genetic condition causing severe disability and epilepsy. Ten participants will follow a diet with 160 mg of purines per day. Early results in one patient showed promise,…

This study tests a new drug called dorzagliatin in 44 adults with a rare, inherited form of diabetes (GCK-MODY). The drug works by activating a key enzyme to help the body better control blood sugar. Participants will receive both the drug and a placebo at different times to see …

This trial tests a gene therapy for children with ADA-SCID, a severe immune disorder often called 'bubble boy disease.' Doctors take the child's own blood stem cells, add a working gene, and return them via infusion. The goal is to restore immune function and improve survival. Th…

This study tests liraglutide, a drug used for type 2 diabetes, in 50 adults with MODY, a rare genetic form of diabetes. The goal is to see if it improves blood sugar control and reduces stomach issues like nausea. Researchers will also study participants' cells to understand why …

This study tests a different chemotherapy drug (trifluridine/tipiracil) for people with metastatic colorectal or gastroesophageal cancer who have a genetic condition (DPD deficiency) that makes standard chemo very toxic. About 73 participants will receive this drug along with oth…

This study tests a virtual peer support program for people with type 1 diabetes and their loved ones across Canada. Participants join small online meetings and larger webinars to share experiences and reduce diabetes distress. The program is designed by researchers who also live …

This study aims to learn more about rare disorders that affect how the body processes chemicals called pyrimidines and purines. These disorders can cause problems in the brain, blood, kidneys, and immune system, ranging from mild to life-threatening. Researchers will compare test…

This study creates a global registry for people with mitochondrial disorders—rare diseases that affect energy production in cells. By collecting health data from 6,000 participants worldwide, researchers aim to understand how these diseases progress and identify the best ways to …

This study follows people with rare inherited forms of kidney stones and chronic kidney disease, such as primary hyperoxaluria, cystinuria, and Dent disease, to learn how these conditions develop over time. Researchers will measure markers of inflammation in blood and urine and t…

This study aims to create a nationwide registry of Indian children with hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSDs), a group of inherited metabolic disorders affecting the liver and muscles. By collecting genetic, clinical, and outcome data from 250 children, researchers hope to map…

This study investigates whether a person's glycolytic power — how efficiently their body uses sugar for quick energy — can predict muscle growth from resistance training. Healthy adults who have not done structured weight lifting in the past year will take a 10-second all-out cyc…

This study creates a biobank of blood, urine, and tissue samples from people with rare kidney stone diseases—primary hyperoxaluria, cystinuria, APRT deficiency, and Dent disease—and their family members. By storing these samples, researchers hope to enable future studies that cou…

This study collects medical information from people around the world who have one of four rare hereditary kidney stone diseases: primary hyperoxaluria, Dent disease, cystinuria, or APRT deficiency. By gathering data from many patients, researchers hope to better understand how th…

This study gathers medical information from people with MNGIE, a rare genetic disease that affects the nerves and digestive system. Researchers want to learn how the disease progresses and find better ways to measure it. Up to 50 patients worldwide can join, and no new treatments…

This study looks at how a supplement called nicotinamide riboside (NR) and a low-carb, high-fat 'ketogenic' diet affect the way the body burns fat and uses energy. Researchers will measure changes in metabolism in 100 overweight or obese adults. Participants will eat a standard d…

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 is creating a large digital registry to find and understand rare forms of diabetes caused by a single gene (monogenic diabetes). Researchers will enroll up to 5,000 people in China who were diagnosed with diabetes at a young age and test their DNA. The goal is to learn…

This study follows 36 people with type 1 diabetes who have received a pancreatic islet transplant. Researchers will use continuous glucose monitors to see if a measure called 'Time in Tight Range' can detect early loss of graft function. The goal is to find a simple way to spot p…

This study takes a small sample of skin, blood, or urine from people with diabetes and healthy volunteers. Scientists will turn those cells into stem cells and then into insulin-producing cells in the lab. The goal is to learn more about diabetes and pave the way for future cell-…

This study follows 1500 people with rare genetic brain disorders to learn how these diseases progress. Researchers measure thinking, movement, and daily living skills over time, and also look at brain scans and body fluids. The goal is to better understand the diseases and how tr…

This study tracks 200 people with ultra-rare glycogen storage diseases (GSDs) like types 0a, 0b, VII, X, XII, XIII, XV, PRKAG2 syndrome, and Danon disease. Researchers will collect medical records and other data to see how these conditions progress over time. No treatments or dru…

This early-phase study looks at whether reducing high insulin levels (common in type 1 diabetes) with an SGLT2 inhibitor can improve heart and blood sugar health. Researchers will compare people with type 1 diabetes, those with a mild genetic diabetes (GCK-MODY), and healthy volu…
