The Study for
Pregnant Women Expecting an Ectodermal Dysplasia (XLHED) Affected Boy
Now enrolling
Edelife is a clinical study on the safety and possible health benefits of an investigational medicine for those affected by XLHED.
When given to XLHED-affected boys at the right time in the mother’s pregnancy, the investigational medicine should in theory act as a replacement for a missing protein and potentially lead to improved development of a baby’s sweat glands, teeth, and skin.
Timing is Critical
- Pregnant women must be enrolled in the clinical trial during the second trimester, no later than pregnancy week 23.
- The investigational medicine must be given before birth during the development of sweat glands, teeth, skin, and other important structures. No treatments are administered after the child is born.
- Pregnant women who suspect they have XLHED or are unsure about their XLHED status may be eligible to take part in Edelife.
- There will be no costs associated with taking part in this study.
