Diaphragmatic Hernia Research & Exploration, Advancing Molecular Science

NCT00950118

This study is recruiting at 11 US sites in 9 states, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .

Summary

The goal of this study is to identify genes that convey susceptibility to congenital diaphragmatic hernia in humans. The identification of such genes, and examination of their structure and function, will enable a delineation of molecular pathogenesis and, ultimately, prevention or treatment of congenital diaphragmatic hernia. There are many different possible modes of inheritance for congenital anomalies, including autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, and multifactorial.
