Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include individuals with identified mutations in SLC16A2 or THRA and abnormal serum fT3/fT4 ratios.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have corrected or changed their molecular diagnosis or who withdraw consent will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This registry aims to enhance the understanding of thyroid hormone resistance by collecting data on patients with mutations in the SLC16A2 and THRA genes. It focuses on improving diagnostic methods through the analysis of serum fT3/fT4 ratios and exploring the genomic regulation of these genes. The study will also investigate the phenotypic spectrum of patients affected by these conditions, which can lead to severe developmental and intellectual disabilities. By gathering comprehensive genetic and clinical information, the registry seeks to facilitate better diagnosis and management of affected individuals.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could lead to improved diagnostic accuracy and better management strategies for patients with thyroid hormone resistance.
How similar studies have gone: While there is ongoing research in the field of thyroid hormone resistance, this specific registry approach is novel and aims to fill gaps in understanding the full spectrum of these conditions.
