Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research study is to identify individuals that have a rare genetic disease without an adequate therapeutic strategy that might be treatable with drug developed to target the disease-causing genetic alteration.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Rare genetic disease individualized drug development screening candidate

Patients with targetable disease-causing genetic alterations will be evaluated on a case by case basis. The research study will utilize biospecimens to determine if an individualized therapeutic may be developed as a possible treatment option. If an individualized therapeutic drug can be developed, a future IND FDA application (n=1) will be filed.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Has Mayo Clinic or other medical health system ID, or another unique identifier.
* Able to provide informed consent.
* Individual must have evidence of a genetic disorder as determined by a provider or genetic counselor with causative or likely causative genetic variants identified by molecular testing.
* Genetic variants must be hypothesized to be targetable using antisense oligonucleotide drugs (such as: knockdown gain of function alterations, increase protein production for reduced function alterations, or modulate mRNA splicing to correct abnormal splicing, promote normal splicing, or return reading frame to an out-of-frame transcript to restore function, etc.) based on current acceptable understanding of ASO mechanisms of action and tissue/organ targeting efficiency.
* Biological family member of an enrolled individual.
* Would be able to travel to a Mayo Clinic site for ongoing treatment should a therapeutic be developed.
* Treatment at the individual's current disease state would likely provide benefit based on current clinical data and understanding of the progression of the disease.

-Or-

* Biological family member of an enrolled individual
* Able to provide informed consent or has a LAR available to provide informed consent

Exclusion Criteria
