First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study follows up on a previous trial of the drug AEF0217 in people with Down syndrome. Researchers are asking participants and their caregivers to share their impressions of the treatment through a simple questionnaire. The goal is to understand what changes, if any, people noticed during the trial. Only 28 people who completed the earlier study are invited to take part.
