NCT ID NCT06660108

First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to uncover the genetic causes of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), a condition where children have trouble learning language without other known medical issues. Researchers will analyze the DNA of 50 children with severe DLD and their families using advanced genome sequencing. The goal is to find specific gene changes that may explain why some children struggle with language, which could improve diagnosis and future treatments.
