Trial Now Recruiting: Characterization and Contribution of Genome-wide DNA Methylation (DNA Methylation Episignatures) in Rare Diseases With Prenatal Onset (NCT06475651)
Researchers are looking for 63 participants to help them understand how DNA changes in babies before birth compare to DNA changes after birth. They want to collect DNA from amniotic fluid (the fluid around a baby in the womb) or from tissue samples after delivery to create a reference guide. This guide will help doctors better diagnose rare genetic diseases that start before birth.
WHY IT MATTERSThis trial could improve how doctors diagnose rare genetic diseases in fetuses and newborns by establishing what normal DNA patterns look like before birth, which is currently unknown.
