NCT ID NCT00111384

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study looks at genes that might explain why some people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) have more serious health problems than others. Researchers will examine medical histories, take blood samples, and perform imaging tests on patients and their family members. The goal is to find genetic clues that could help predict disease severity and improve future care.
