Researchers track rare muscle disease to uncover its secrets
NCT ID NCT06078553
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study is for people with a rare genetic muscle condition called congenital myasthenic syndrome (CMS). It does not test any new drug or treatment. Instead, researchers will collect information from up to 100 participants over 4 visits to better understand how the disease affects symptoms and quality of life. The goal is to learn more about the natural course of CMS caused by specific gene mutations.
