Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Retrospectively included patients presenting severe intellectual disability without a molecular diagnosis, born from consanguineous parents and / or with intra-familial recurrence, whose parents are requesting for molecular diagnosis, in a context of deadlock with conventional techniques

Who may be able to join

  • Clinical diagnosis of syndromic or isolated severe intellectual disability (IQ <50) without a molecular diagnosis
  • Recurrence in siblings (multiplex families) suggesting autosomal recessive inheritance (with or without parental consanguinity) or sporadic cases from a consanguineous union
  • Conventional genetic tests performed (including array-CGH) and MRI/CT-scan available
  • DNA samples from parents and from both unaffected or affected siblings available, for parental segregation and confirmation of candidate variations identified.
  • Availability of a signed informed consent
  • To be affiliated or beneficiary of French social security/healthcare system

Who cannot join

  • Parents in the exclusion period of another study or as provided by the national register of volunteers
  • High-probability diagnostic hypothesis for which a molecular test is available at lower cost than exome sequencing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Severe Intellectual Disability, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 2 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 22 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Number of patients with a molecular diagnostic and diagnostic yield (time frame: up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Jul 2020.
