Clinical Trial: Identification of Genes and Pathogenesis Involved in Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm

Study Status: Recruiting
Recruit Status: Recruiting
Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Identification of Genes and Pathogenesis Involved in Familial Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (TAA)

Brief Summary:

The primary objectives of the study are

  • to assess the contribution of alteration of each known gene on non-syndromic TAA.
  • to map and identify unknown gene involved in the non-syndromic TAA.

Detailed Summary:

The secondary objectives of the study are

  • to study the correlation of phenotype-genotype, in particular, to compare the aortic phenotype of non-syndromic TAA patients and TAA syndromic patients.
  • to develop national standardized strategies of genetic diagnosis and of clinical management using genetic data.

Current Primary Outcome: Impact of known mutations and research of new genes involved in non syndromic TAA [ Time Frame: 1 year ]

Research for mutations in known genes such as FBN1, TGFBR1, TGFBR2, ACTA2, or MYH11.

Research for new genes in families and in individuals TAA patients without known mutation.
