Let’s cure CLCN4
We are a registered charity aimed at providing support, raising awareness, and funding medical research for effective treatments for CLCN4-related condition.
CLCN4 is a rare genetic condition that causes intellectual disability and other problems such as epilepsy, behavioural disorders, movement disorders, and microcephaly.
Turning research into hope
Scientific research
We fund and collaborate on CLCN4 research worldwide, aiming to uncover how the gene functions and how its disruption causes neurological symptoms. By connecting researchers and families, we’re building the path toward effective therapies.
Family support
Families affected by CLCN4 gene variants often face challenges such as developmental delay, seizures, and learning or behavioural differences. We’re here to offer guidance, community, and support, helping families navigate the diagnosis.
Raising awareness
We raise awareness of CLCN4-related neurodevelopmental condition among doctors, scientists, and the wider community, improving diagnosis, connecting families, and accelerating research toward treatments.
Help us
Join us from anywhere in the world in helping individuals and families living with CLCN4. Donate, fundraise or volunteer your time or expertise.
Patient registry
The CLCN4 patient registry, hosted by Simons Searchlight, helps researchers and families work together to move closer to treatments. By collecting information about people with CLCN4-related condition, we can better understand how the condition affects different individuals and support future research and clinical trials.
What We Do
Cure CLCN4 is committed to finding viable treatment options for families affected by CLCN4 variants. Some of the things we support include:
– The identification of suitable research projects
– Setting up and maintenance of a patient registry
– Facilitation of a community of affected families
Our Story
Cure CLCN4 was established by a family with an affected child. Read our story here.
Our journey is an ongoing learning experience on how to open new pathways for game-changing treatments for patients, families and researchers.
We Invite Families All Over the World
If you have a family member affected by CLCN4-related condition variant, we invite you to get in touch and join our Registry.
