Mutations and Phenotypes of Unclassifiable Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes

Recruiting
Conditions
Inherited BMF Syndrome
Registration Number
NCT05436587
Lead Sponsor
Sohag University
Brief Summary

Inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFSs) are a diverse collection of genetic illnesses characterized by various degrees of peripheral cytopenias due to defective single-lineage or multi-lineage hematopoiesis, it can manifest itself at birth or later in life.

Detailed Description

Studying the genetic etiology underlying unclassifiable IBMFSs with bone fragility fractures should be useful for clarifying the undiagnosed pathophysiological mechanisms and other accessory factors to improve the diagnosis, follow-up, prognosis, and management of these patients as well as prevent future complications.

Moreover, early diagnosis of risk factors of unusual presentations of IBMFSs will be a useful tool for better treatment strategy.

In addition, along with typical IBMFSs, novel clinical entities must be included in an overall molecular portrait of IBMF disorders. As a result, comprehensive genetic analysis will be effective in establishing an accurate genetic diagnosis at medical evaluation.
