Genetic Causes of Discrepant Clinic in Monogenic Twins


Sponsor

University Hospital Tuebingen

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Dec 1, 2019

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

In the DISCO-TWIN study (prospective, open-label molecular-genetic study), twin pairs with one healthy and one affected twin with molecularly undiagnosed diseases will be analysed by means of omics technologies and/ or re-analysed using existing datasets. Phenotype and omics data will be shared within the University Hospital Tübingen and with external collaborators to improve the diagnostic rate of the subjects included in the study.

  • Unclear diagnosis
  • Suspected (mono-)genetic cause of the disease in one twin

Exclusion Criteria2
