Rare gene variant under the microscope: new study aims to map disease patterns
NCT ID NCT07124377
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 57 people aged 20 to 70 who carry the Val50Met gene variant linked to hereditary ATTR amyloidosis, a condition that can damage nerves and the heart. Researchers want to describe the different symptoms people experience, such as heart problems, nerve issues, or a mix of both. The goal is to better understand how the disease shows up in a region where this variant is not common.
