Registration Number
NCT04586400
Lead Sponsor
Washington University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

Patients with deletion of chromosome 9 P are rare (\~200 in the medical literature) and have a diverse set of phenotypic characteristics. We propose using state of the art genome sequencing methods to define the location and size of the deleted portion of chromosome 9 P as well as the genetic background in affected patients (whole genome sequencing) and correlate the genes in the deleted portion of chromosome 9 P with specific phenotypic characteristics of each patient. Enrolled participants will be asked to complete a detailed questionnaire, complete a medical release form, and provide a biospecimen sample.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Genotypic and Phenotypic CorrelationAs enrollment increases the team hopes to have preliminary results by 2022

By use of demographic and genetic material we hope to gain a better understanding between the deletion on the short arm of the 9th chromosome and the features presented.
