About this study
Official title: Search of Susceptibility Genes in Autism Spectrum Disorders
The main objective of the study is to define, for Autism Spectrum Disorder, the extent of genetic variation in synaptic pathways that may be targeted for therapeutic development. For this purpose the investigators will take advantage of large, well-characterized cohorts of patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder for genetic screenings. Targeted sequencing of selected synaptic genes, previously associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder, will be carried out in these cohorts with deep coverage of coding regions and a strong focus on previously untested regulatory regions. Genomic data from Copy Number Variant, whole genome sequencing and exome sequencing, available for some of these patients, will be integrated in the overall analysis. The investigators will strongly emphasize the establishment of comprehensive genotype/phenotype correlations and set up an induced Pluripotent Stem Cells collection from selected patients with synaptic mutations for functional and expression analysis.
Read the detailed description
Specific aims are:
Aim 1: To identify genetic variants in selected synaptic genes, by targeted sequencing with deep coverage of coding regions and a strong focus on previously untested regulatory regions in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Aim 2: To define the range of clinical phenotypes caused by mutations in synaptic genes by establishing detailed genotype/phenotype correlations and analyzing segregation in families with multiple individuals affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder traits or other neuropsychiatric disorders
Aim 3: To generate a repository of induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Autism Spectrum Disorder subjects with synaptic mutations for translational studies, including expression and functional assays.
Aim 4: To identify the neuronal phenotypes caused by deleterious synaptic mutations for further translational studies

Measured: up to 12 months after completion of the inclusion and molecular explorations
Secondary outcomes (1)
Prevalence of the deleterious mutations in the major biological pathways in Autism Spectrum Disorders:
The deleterious mutations that the investigators will identify in genes related to Autism Spectrum Disorders will help to have a comprehensive framework of biological pathways involved in Autism Spectrum Disorder

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Autism Spectrum Disorders, run by Institut National de la Santé Et de la Recherche Médicale, France at 5 sites in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 5 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Prevalence of synaptic gene deleterious mutations in patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (time frame: up to 12 months after completion of the inclusion and molecular explorations). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02628808, which also lists 11 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
