This phase 3 trial tests whether PLX-200 (gemfibrozil) can safely slow the progression of CLN3 disease, a rare genetic disorder that causes loss of motor skills, vision, and seizures in children. About 39 kids aged 6-18 will receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 96 weeks…

This early-stage study tests a single intravenous dose of a gene therapy called LY3884961 in 15 adults with Gaucher disease type 1. The goal is to see if it is safe and can reduce or replace the need for ongoing enzyme replacement or substrate reduction therapy. Participants must…

This early-phase trial tests a single intravenous dose of LY-M001 gene therapy in 9 children (ages 6 to 17) with type 1 Gaucher disease. The goal is to see if it is safe and can improve key symptoms like liver size and blood markers. Researchers will monitor participants for side…

This study tests an oral drug called nizubaglustat in children and teens with rare genetic disorders (GM1, GM2 gangliosidosis) that damage the brain and nerves. The goal is to see if the drug can slow disease progression and improve movement and coordination. About 75 participant…

This phase 2 trial tests an oral drug called venglustat, given alongside the standard enzyme therapy Cerezyme, in adults with Gaucher disease type 3 (a rare genetic disorder affecting the body and brain). The study has four parts: first, it checks spinal fluid biomarkers to disti…

This early-stage trial tests a one-time gene therapy called CLN-301 in 7 children aged 3 to 10 with CLN3 Batten disease, a rare genetic disorder that causes progressive loss of vision, movement, and thinking skills. The therapy delivers a working copy of the CLN3 gene directly in…

This study follows 75 people with Gaucher disease type 1 who previously received FLT201 gene therapy. Researchers will monitor them for 5 years to see if the treatment remains safe and if its effects last. The goal is to understand whether a single dose can provide long-term dise…

This study follows 7 people who previously received a gene therapy called AXO-AAV-GM2 for Tay-Sachs or Sandhoff disease — rare, fatal genetic disorders that destroy nerve cells. Researchers will track them for up to 5 years to see if the treatment remains safe and whether it help…

This study follows 10 people with CLN6 Batten disease who received a single dose of gene therapy (AT-GTX-501) in an earlier trial. Researchers are checking long-term safety and how the disease progresses over time. No new treatment is given in this follow-up.

ScreenPlus is a large pilot program that offers families the option to have their newborn screened for a panel of rare genetic disorders, in addition to standard newborn screening. The study aims to screen 100,000 infants born at eight hospitals in New York. Researchers will eval…

This study offers voluntary screening for newborns in North Carolina to detect a wide range of rare health conditions early. Using a small blood sample already collected at birth, the program tests for dozens of disorders, including spinal muscular atrophy, cystic fibrosis, and m…
