About this study

Official title: Identification of New Genes Involved in the Taybi-Linder Syndrome.

Taybi-Linder syndrome (TALS, OMIM 210710) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder belonging to the group of microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfisms (MOPD). This syndrome is characterized by short stature, skeletal anomalies, severe microcephaly with brain malformations and facial dysmorphism, and is caused by mutations in RNU4ATAC. Although RNU4ATAC-associated TALS is a recognizable phenotype, an atypical presentation is sometimes observed, thus expanding the clinical spectrum (TALS-like phenotype).

This study aims to identify new variants involved in Taybi-Linder syndrome and associated phenotypes (i.e.TALS-like).

This non interventional study will be performed on patients with no proven mutation of RNU4ATAC and their blood relatives (19 samples total) by high throughput sequencing and genetic analysis of already collected deoxyribonucleic acid samples.

Altogether, such a study will allow a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the Taybi-Linder syndrome and Taybi-Linder syndrome-like phenotypes as well as the pathophysiology of these devastating forms of microcephalic dwarfism.

  • Deoxyribonucleic acid analysisGenetic

    This study consists in the high throughput exome sequencing and subsequent genetic bio-analysis of 19 deoxyribonucleic acid samples from 6 families, already collected and consented, including patients diagnosed with a Taybi-Linder syndrome and their relatives (parents and/or siblings).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Taybi Linder Syndrome and Genetic Syndrome, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Audrey PUTOUX, MCU-PH (04 27 85 50 83 ext. +33, audrey.putoux@chu-lyon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identification of new variants involved in the Taybi-Linder syndrome (time frame: Collection at time of diagnosis = less than one day). 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 19 Jul 2017.
