NCT ID NCT05050669

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study follows children aged 2 to 18 with confirmed ENPP1 deficiency or early-onset ABCC6 deficiency to understand how these rare diseases progress. Researchers will measure blood markers, check for calcification in arteries and organs, and track bone health and movement over time. No treatment is given—the goal is to gather natural history data to inform future care and research.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better understand how these rare diseases develop and change over time, potentially guiding future treatments.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with no treatment being tested. It will not directly improve participants' health, and results may not apply to all patients.

Inclusion Criteria: Individuals eligible to participate must meet all of the following inclusion criteria: 1. Must provide written consent of the legally authorized representative/caregiver and assent for subjects after the nature of the study has been explained and prior to any research-related procedures, following the policies of the clinical site 2.
