Scientists map the devastating course of rare childhood diseases

NCT ID NCT00668187

Summary

This study aims to carefully track how rare, inherited disorders called gangliosidoses (like Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff disease) progress over time. Researchers will follow about 52 participants, from infants to adults, using tests and brain scans to measure changes in development, movement, and brain structure. The goal is to create a detailed picture of these diseases to help design and test future treatments.
