Filter by:This study will investigate reproductive genetic carrier screening (RGCS) in 10,000 couples across Australia. Carrier screening for approximately 1300 genes associated with severe, childhood-onset, X-linked and autosomal recessive conditions will be performed on each member of the couple. A combined result will be issued indicating whether the couple has a 'low' or 'increased' risk of having a child with a genetic condition. It is anticipated that 1-2% of couples will be at an increased risk of having an affected child. The study will evaluate all aspects of the RGCS program to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a publicly-funded population-wide RGCS program, including: - education of recruiting healthcare providers - education of participating couples - implementation and uptake of RGCS - frequency of increased-risk couples and their reproductive decisions - psychosocial impacts - ethical issues - health economic implications - health implementation research
This is an open-label extension study for patients previously enrolled in the AB2 Bio Ltd. ongoing Phase III clinical trial NLRC4/XIAP.2016.001 (IND N° 127953). This OLE study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Tadekinig alfa in patients suffering from pediatric monogenic autoinflammatory diseases harboring deleterious mutations of NLRC4 and XIAP.
OBJECTIVES: I. Identify the molecular defects responsible for primary immunodeficiency disorders. II. Explore the mutations within each syndrome to better understand the genetics of these disorders. III. Study the function of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome proteins (WASP). IV. Design methods to identify carriers and for prenatal diagnosis. V. Explore new avenues for therapy.
