Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Specimen collection

Spinocerebellar Ataxia and Other Nucleotide Repeat Diseases - Participants with a clinical diagnosis of spinocerebellar ataxia and other nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) with or without a genetic mutation and unaffected family members (grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, cousins, uncles and aunts) who may or may not carry a genetic mutation for the disease.

Control Group - Participants with no known medical or family history of inherited neurodegenerative forms of spinocerebellar ataxia or nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) and spouses or caregivers of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia and nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) will serve as controls in the study.


Other interventions: Specimen collection
Blood, urine, stool, cerebrospinal fluid, and skin biopsy may be collected

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Males and females over the age of 18 years
* We acknowledge that some participants may be unable to consent due to underlying medical conditions; an eligible proxy may provide the informed consent and provide a signature on the designated line.
* Participants with a clinical diagnosis of spinocerebellar ataxia and other nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) with or without a genetic mutation and unaffected family members (grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, cousins, uncles and aunts) who may or may not carry a genetic mutation for the disease.
* Patients with genetic neurodegenerative form of spinocerebellar ataxia and other nucleotide repeat diseases excluding Huntington's Disease who do not have a known family history of genetic neurodegenerative spinocerebellar ataxia.
* Women of childbearing age will be included as they will not be exposed to any harmful substances nor any forms of treatment while in this study.
* Males and females over 18 years of age with no known medical or family history of inherited neurodegenerative forms of spinocerebellar ataxia or nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) will be enrolled as controls.
* Spouses and caregivers of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia and nucleotide repeat diseases (not including Huntington's Disease) may serve as controls in the study.

Controls will also be participants interested in the study after having viewed the advertisement displayed here at Mayo Clinic Florida or heard about the study by word of mouth.
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
Yes
Key exclusion criteria
* Patients that do not want to participate by either checking no on the contact letter or refusing over the phone. This will be recorded in the Progeny system and patients will not be contacted again.
* Allergy to study-related materials including lidocaine or iodine. We will make all efforts to utilize alternative means when obtaining specimens (i.e. using rubbing alcohol and obtaining blood samples instead of skin biopsies).
* Potential subjects will not be excluded based on being minorities.
* Pregnant subjects will not be included in the study.
* We propose to include 1000 subjects in our repository (500 affected plus unaffected and 500 controls patients).
