Disease research snapshot

CureCurrent currently links 1 distinct registered clinical trials to NARP syndrome through its MONDO disease mappings. 1 of those studies have the registry status “recruiting” (100%). These are registry statuses, not availability guarantees, study results or evidence of effectiveness.

The leading sponsor shown in this linked dataset is Sanford Health, associated with 1 distinct linked trials. This is a count of records, not a ranking of the sponsor's scientific quality.

The highest-count mapped research city in the current result is Sioux Falls, United States. Only site locations available in the published registry projection are counted; some trial sites may be missing or outdated.

Numbers are derived from CureCurrent's current ClinicalTrials.gov projection and conservative MONDO/RxNorm mappings. See sources, counting rules and limitations and verify eligibility or clinical findings with the original study record.

Background context

Neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa

Neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa, also known as NARP syndrome, is a rare disease with mitochondrial inheritance that causes a variety of signs and symptoms chiefly affecting the nervous system Beginning in childhood or early adulthood, most people with NARP experience numbness, tingling, or pain in the arms and legs (sensory neuropathy); muscle weakness; and problems with balance and coordination (ataxia). Many affected individuals also have vision loss caused by changes in the light-sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye (the retina). In some cases, the vision loss results from a condition called retinitis pigmentosa. This eye disease causes the light-sensing cells of the retina gradually to deteriorate.

Background only. Canonical identity remains MONDO; clinical-trial relationships come from ClinicalTrials.gov.

How to interpret this record

CureCurrent links normalized diseases, medicines, registry study labels, sponsors and research sites. A link is not the same as a finding of clinical effectiveness. Our research guides explain how to compare studies, decode RxNorm identities, and avoid over-interpreting site and trial counts. See the published database coverage for mapping completeness.
