Rare and Undiagnosed Disease Research Biorepository

Conditions
Rare Diseases
Undiagnosed Disease
Registration Number
NCT04703179
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

This research study is being done to find markers and identify causes of rare and undiagnosed diseases by analyzing patient's DNA (i.e., genetic material), RNA, plasma, urine, tissues, or other samples that could be informative of symptoms. Researchers are creating a biobank (library) of samples and information to learn more about treating rare and undiagnosed diseases.
