Decade-Long quest to map the progression of a rare nerve disorder

NCT ID NCT00598351

Summary

This study aims to understand how neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) progresses over time. Researchers will follow 269 participants, aged 8 to 75, for up to ten years, tracking their health with annual check-ups, MRI scans, hearing tests, and blood draws. The goal is to learn what causes tumors to grow and how they affect functions like hearing, speech, and swallowing, which could help guide future treatments.
