This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study looks for brain activity patterns (biomarkers) in girls with Rett syndrome. Researchers will use EEG to measure brain waves and see if these patterns change with symptoms or stay stable over time. About 200 girls with Rett syndrome and typically developing girls will take part. The goal is to find reliable markers that can help develop better treatments in the future.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Enrolled participants with Rett syndrome will include individuals receiving clinical care through the Rett Syndrome clinics at participating sites. Typically developing individuals will be recruited using study recruitment centers or family members of Rett participants at each site. Each of the sites are International Rett Syndrome Foundation Centers of Excellence (Rettsyndrome.org).

Ages

1 year to 18 years

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Rett Group: Females ages 3-18 (inclusive) with a clinical diagnosis of RTT with a likely pathogenic or known pathogenic variant in MECP2. 2. Likely Rett Group: Females from 1 year to \< 5 years of age with MECP2 variant if regression has not yet occurred or child is within 6 months of last skill loss. 3. Typically developing (TD) Group: Females age matched to RTT population (1-18) with no developmental or cognitive concerns as assessed using the Child/Adult Behavioral Checklist, Survey of Well-Being of Young Children (\<5yo), or the Wide Range Achievement Test-4 (\>5 yo). Exclusion Criteria: Rett and Likely Rett Groups: 1. Presence of a duplication in MECP2 or any other identified pathogenic mutation in another gene. 2. Active medical conditions not typically found in RTT. Typically Developing Group: 1. Score below norms on the performance tests 2. Have a known neurological disorder (excluding migraine) 3. Being on neuroactive medications.
