Official Title
Evaluating Genetic Modifiers of Cutaneous Neurofibromas in Adults With Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Brief Summary
The main goal of this protocol is to develop a well-phenotyped genetic biobank to identify
genetic variants associated with the heterogeneous clinical presentations of
Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). This will allow for improve understanding of NF1 pathogenesis
and more personalized disease management. The investigators will conduct a GWAS analysis to
identify common genetic risk variants associated with the development of cutaneous
neurofibromas.
Study Type
Observational [Patient Registry]
Primary Outcome
Determination of genetic variants associated with clinical presentations of NF1.
Condition
Neurofibromatosis 1
