ClinConnect Summary

The IBMDx Study is a clinical trial aimed at understanding inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMF) and related conditions by analyzing the genetic information of patients. Researchers will use advanced techniques to look closely at the DNA and gene activity of 350 individuals who may have these disorders. The goal is to improve the ability to diagnose these conditions, which can lead to better treatment options for patients.

To participate in this study, individuals must be at least 3 months old and either able to provide their own consent or have a parent or guardian who can do so. They should have a diagnosis or suspected diagnosis of an inherited bone marrow failure syndrome or a related disorder. However, people with acquired forms of bone marrow failure or those who already have a clear genetic diagnosis for their condition will not be eligible. Participants can expect to undergo genetic testing, and their information may help advance the understanding of these conditions for future patients.
