What this trial studies

This registry aims to gather individuals who are either affected by or have a family member with Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). Participants will be added to a list that researchers can use to identify potential candidates for future studies related to CADASIL. The registry will collect uniform data to evaluate outcomes for this specific condition and will remain active until participants choose to withdraw. This initiative is led by Dr. Jane Paulsen and her research team at the University of Wisconsin.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could facilitate more targeted research and clinical trials for CADASIL, potentially leading to better treatment options.

How similar studies have gone: While this registry approach is common, it is essential for advancing CADASIL research, and similar registries have successfully facilitated research in other rare conditions.
