New DNA reader could solve mystery rare diseases

NCT ID NCT07400913

First seen Feb 15, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study will test a new DNA sequencing method (long-read sequencing) on 150 people with rare diseases like albinism or intellectual disability who haven't gotten a clear diagnosis from standard tests. The goal is to find hidden genetic changes, including methylation abnormalities, that standard short-read sequencing misses. If successful, this approach could help more patients get a diagnosis and guide future treatments.
