Condition(s) studied

Variant Nucleotide

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Long-read sequencing

Long-read sequencing: The technology performed belongs to third-generation sequencing strategies and is capable of analysing very long DNA and RNA fragments.

Study summary

If the study is able to demonstrate that the LRS concretely overcomes the technical limitations of diagnostic methods routinely used in laboratories, its clinical application may make possible a more accurate analysis of repeated genomic regions and offer greater sensitivity for identifying SVs (Structural Variants)
