This study tests whether adjusting sex hormone levels with aromatase inhibitors can improve metabolic health and sperm production in men with Klinefelter syndrome. It also examines if adding semaglutide (a weight-loss drug) or hCG provides extra benefits. The trial involves 150 m…

This study tests a 16-week inclusive exercise program called PACE for adults with intellectual disability. Participants will attend fitness classes, meet with coaches, and use a web dashboard to set goals. The trial includes 376 people and will measure daily steps and moderate-to…

This study offers boys aged 0-17 the chance to freeze testicular tissue before undergoing treatments like chemotherapy or radiation that could cause permanent infertility. The tissue is stored for potential future use to achieve pregnancy. Researchers will track whether transplan…

Researchers are collecting blood samples from pregnant women at higher risk of having a baby with a chromosomal condition. The goal is to develop a noninvasive prenatal test that looks at cell-free DNA in the mother's blood to detect Down syndrome. Participants give blood between…

This study is testing a new blood test that looks for fetal cells in the mother's blood to detect genetic conditions like Down syndrome. The test will be compared to standard diagnostic methods such as amniocentesis or newborn testing. The study involves 1,000 pregnant individual…

This study tests a special nasal airway device (ssNPA) in 40 children with weak throat muscles and obstructive sleep apnea, including those with Down syndrome. The device is designed to keep the airway open during sleep without needing surgery. Researchers will measure how well i…

This trial tests whether a 10-session group program called Social Management Training can improve mental health, executive function, and social skills in adults aged 16 to 69 who have sex chromosome aneuploidies (extra or missing sex chromosomes). Participants complete questionna…

This study aims to better understand trisomy 8 mosaicism, a rare genetic condition where some cells have an extra copy of chromosome 8, and its link to autoinflammatory disease (TRIAD). Researchers will follow affected individuals and their healthy relatives over time, collecting…

This study looks at how certain brain cells (cholinergic neurons) change with age in adults with Down syndrome, and how that relates to Alzheimer's disease risk. Researchers will use brain scans and EEGs to measure these changes in 30 adults aged 18-55 who do not have dementia. T…

This study creates a large collection of blood, saliva, urine, and other samples from 2,500 people with and without Down syndrome. The goal is to help researchers better understand Down syndrome and its related medical conditions. Participants must be between 6 months and 89 year…
