This study is testing the long-term safety of an mRNA therapy called mRNA-3705 in people with methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), a rare genetic disorder that prevents the body from breaking down certain proteins and fats. Participants have already been in earlier studies of this drug.…

This study tests a gene therapy for GM1 gangliosidosis, a fatal disorder that destroys nerve cells. The therapy uses a harmless virus to deliver a working gene, helping the body produce a missing enzyme. Up to 54 children with Type I (ages 6-12 months) or Type II (ages 1-12 years…

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 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 aims to learn more about methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) and related disorders by observing people with these conditions over time. Researchers will track complications, perform tests like blood draws and MRIs, and look for new genetic causes. The goal is to better unders…

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 follows people with propionic acidemia (PA), a rare metabolic disorder, to track how the disease affects the body over time. Researchers will collect medical history, blood, urine, and other samples, and perform imaging and heart tests during annual hospital visits. Th…

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 aims to understand why some people are more prone to fungal infections, especially from Candida yeast. Researchers will collect blood, saliva, urine, and tissue samples from people with immune disorders, their family members, and healthy volunteers. No treatment is giv…

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 looks at whether people with certain rare metabolic disorders that cause high ammonia levels will measure their ammonia at home every day. About 30 participants will use a special device to check their ammonia, along with temperature, heart rate, and blood oxygen. They…

This study looks at whether a special camp that teaches teens and young women with PKU or MSUD about their condition and nutrition can improve their pregnancy outcomes and quality of life. Researchers will compare the results of women who attended the camp to those who did not. T…

This study follows 180 children in Italy born with biotinidase deficiency, a rare condition that can cause skin, eye, and nerve problems if untreated. Researchers will compare each child's genetic makeup with their enzyme activity levels and health outcomes. The goal is to better…

This study looks at how two short-chain fatty acids, propionate and butyrate, affect metabolism in 10 healthy adults. Participants will take each fatty acid on separate visits, and researchers will measure changes in ketone bodies, glucose, and other markers. The goal is to under…

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 is not testing any new drug or treatment. Instead, researchers will look back at medical records of 60 people with propionic acidemia, a rare genetic disorder that affects how the body breaks down certain proteins and fats. The goal is to better understand the disease,…
