Trial summary

Neurogenetic diseases (NGD) represent rare and hereditary forms of neurological diseases. The goal of CNGD is to create a one-window approach for NGDs, to facilitate and accelerate participation in research projects through deep phenotyping and the availability of low-cost biological samples for research teams.

About this study

Official title: Clinical and Paraclinical Characterisation of Neurogenetic Diseases, and Creation of a Hub to Facilitate Translational Research, From Basic to Clinical Research

Neurogenetic diseases (NGD) represent rare and hereditary forms of neurological diseases. The goal of CNGD is to create a one-window approach for NGDs, to facilitate and accelerate participation in research projects through deep phenotyping and the availability of low-cost biological samples for research teams. It is positioned as a true hub allowing new connections between clinical and basic research teams and ultimately as an incubator for translational projects for NGDs, in order to be able to initiate therapeutic trials, the ultimate objective of clinical and translational research.

Read the detailed description

Neurogenetic diseases (NGDs) represent rare inherited forms of neurological diseases. They constitute a constellation of different diseases, affecting neurodevelopment (syndromic or non-syndromic intellectual disabilities (ID), with or without autism spectrum disorders (ASD), epileptic encephalopathies, neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) with or without ID... ) or leading to early neurodegeneration (Huntington's and Huntington-like disease, hereditary ataxias, hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP), primary dystonias, neurodegeneration due to intracerebral iron accumulation (NBIA), neurometabolic diseases, etc.). Progress in the knowledge of the genetic causes of NGDs is unceasing, with the discovery of new genes involved in their determinism being continuous. As a result, the boundary between routine care and clinical research is extremely narrow and blurred, and the two activities are totally intertwined and interdependent in the care of patients.

For patients with NGDs already characterized by molecular genetics, at an early, intermediate or presymptomatic stage, we will perform a comprehensive annual standardized clinical and paraclinical evaluation for deep phenotyping as part of routine care; collection of biological samples (annual blood and urine sampling, optional skin biopsy and optional cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling), for functional analyses and better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms involved. This study will last 3 years

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Patient cohortProcedure or surgery

    • For patients: annual follow-up in Neurogenetic reference center, as part of routine care, with exhaustive standardised clinical evaluation
    • Paraclinical monitoring (e.g. MRI, EEG, EMG, etc.) modelled on standard care according to current recommendations
    • Biological samples offered to patients in the context of research:
    • Annual blood sample
    • Annual urine sample
    • Collection of 1 skin biopsy at the inclusion visit (for 30 patients)
    • Cerebrospinal fluid sample at the inclusion visit (for 15 patients
  • Control cohortProcedure or surgery

    • controls without LP: 1 visit for blood, urine and optional skin biopsy
    • controls with LP: additional blood and cerebrospinal fluid tubes for blood sampling and LP as part of routine care, without longitudinal follow-up

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Constitution of a biobank of NGD patients correlated with clinical data

    Number of participants for whom minimum clinical data have been collected and for whom at least one at least one protocol sample has been collected

    Measured: Inclusion visit, 12 months visit and 24 months visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Patient cohort in people with Genetic Disease and Nervous System Diseases, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux 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 7 inclusion and 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Chloe ANGELINI, MD (+335 56 79 59 52, chloe.angelini@chu-bordeaux.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Constitution of a biobank of NGD patients correlated with clinical data (time frame: Inclusion visit, 12 months visit and 24 months visit). 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 25 Feb 2025.
