About this study
Official title: A Prospective Longitudinal Observational Study of a Patient With Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome: Establishing Natural History Data for the Development of AAV-Cas13-Based RNA-Targeting Gene Therapy
This study is a prospective, non-interventional, single-patient observational study following one patient with Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS), a rare disease that causes rapid, premature aging, over a 3-year period without any therapeutic intervention. The main purpose of this study is to track disease-related biomarkers over time - through physical measurements, cardiac and vascular ultrasound, bone age and bone density scans, cognitive testing, and quality-of-life assessments, along with blood tests (a total of 4 research blood draws, 3ml each) - in order to establish baseline natural history data that will support the future development and evaluation of an RNA-targeting gene therapy (based on AAV-Cas13 technology) for this condition.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2026. 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 South Korea. 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.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Longitudinal change (Baseline vs Year 1/2/3) in molecular, cardiovascular, skeletal, and clinical severity biomarkers in one HGPS patient (LMNA p.G608G) (time frame: From September 2026 to December 2029). 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 24 Sep 2026.
