Inherited primary ovarian failure

This study tests a new growth hormone medicine called somapacitan, given once a week, in 47 children who are very short due to being born small for gestational age, or having Turner syndrome, Noonan syndrome, or idiopathic short stature. The main goal is to see if it is safe and …

This study tests a program called PIXI that coaches parents of infants diagnosed with rare neurogenetic disorders (such as Fragile X, Angelman, or Down syndrome) during the first year of life. The program combines education about the disorder, guided parent-child interaction acti…

This study tests if a new growth hormone medicine (somapacitan) given once a week works as well as the standard daily growth hormone (Norditropin) for children who are very short due to being born small, or having Turner syndrome, Noonan syndrome, or unknown causes. About 412 chi…

This study tests a new long-acting growth hormone (lonapegsomatropin) given once a week, compared to the standard daily growth hormone shot, in 48 prepubertal children with Turner syndrome who have not had growth hormone before. The goal is to see if the weekly shot is safe and h…

This study offers girls from birth to age 17 the chance to freeze their ovarian tissue before medical treatments that could harm their fertility, such as chemotherapy or radiation. The tissue is removed surgically and stored. Later, if they want to have children, the tissue can b…

This study offers voluntary screening for newborns in North Carolina to detect a wide range of rare health conditions early. Using a small blood sample already collected at birth, the program tests for dozens of disorders, including spinal muscular atrophy, cystic fibrosis, and m…

This study collects health information and test results from 317 people at high risk for pancreatic cancer, including those with cysts, genetic syndromes, or other risk factors. Researchers aim to build a database to find better ways to detect the disease early or prevent it. No …

This study looks at freezing ovarian tissue in girls with Turner syndrome, a condition that often causes early ovary failure and infertility. Researchers want to find out which patients are most likely to have healthy eggs in their tissue by checking their genes, hormones, and me…

This study aims to uncover the genetic roots of aortic aneurysms and valve disease by analyzing tissue and blood samples from 3,000 participants. Researchers will look for new disease-causing genes and factors that affect disease severity. The goal is to build a biorepository to …

This study follows 300 fetuses and children with sex chromosome disorders to track their growth, organ development, and overall health. Researchers will also look at genetic and gut microbiome factors. The goal is to better understand how these conditions affect children over tim…

This study looks at fetuses with sex chromosome disorders (like extra or missing X or Y chromosomes) that were either miscarried or electively aborted. Researchers will analyze the placenta and fetal tissues to see how the chromosome changes affect gene activity and development. …
