NCT ID NCT05577754

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug alpelisib can help children and adults with MCAP syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects brain growth and development. For the first six months, some participants will receive the drug while others get a placebo, followed by an open period where everyone can receive the treatment. The main goal is to see if the drug improves patients' daily living skills, communication, and socialization.
