NCT ID NCT07589283

First seen May 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026

Summary

This study looks back at the medical records of 150 people diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a rare and fast-moving brain disorder. The goal is to collect and analyze information from routine tests like brain scans, blood work, and spinal fluid exams to see how the disease typically shows up in real-world clinics. No new treatments or tests are given—just learning from what already happened. The hope is to help doctors recognize CJD faster in the future.
