Research and Clinical Trials for Phelan-McDermid Syndrome
Our research focuses on developing and evaluating new treatment approaches for people with Phelan-McDermid syndrome. Through carefully designed clinical trials, researchers study potential therapies to better understand their safety and how they may support brain development, learning, communication, behavior, and daily functioning.
Families who choose to participate in research studies work closely with a specialized research team and continue to receive their usual clinical care. Clinical trials may be available for children and adults with Phelan-McDermid syndrome. Families seen at the Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Clinic can speak with our specialized team to learn more about research opportunities and eligibility.
