Study summary

GALAXY is a registry research study that plans to learn more about individuals with X\&Y variations (also called sex chromosome aneuploidies) through collecting information from medical records.This includes genetic tests, imaging, medications, and more for hundreds of patients seen at a number of clinics across the US. The purpose of the GALAXY Registry is to collect and store this information with the overall goal to improve health outcomes in individuals with X\&Y variations and the care they receive.

Study population

The study population for this registry is patients diagnosed with sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) conditions throughout the lifespan.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Genetically-confirmed diagnosis of a sex chromosome aneuploidy condition
  2. Any age
  3. Any gender
  4. for individuals >18 years of age, parent/guardian permission for individuals \<18 or proxy-consent from legally authorized representative if impaired decision making

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

a. Lack of documentation of genetic testing confirming SCA diagnosis

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Health Conditions

    Average number of chronic diagnoses per person

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Prevalence of mental health diagnoses

    Prevalence of mental health diagnoses is defined as the number of participants in the sample diagnosed with a mental health disorder by a clinician according to their medical record out of the total sample. This will be determined by a diagnosis of any of the following in a clinical encounter, problem list, and/or past medical history: * Depression * Anxiety * Mood disorder NOS * Psychotic disorder * Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) * Autistic disorder

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

  2. Cardiometabolic diagnoses - prevalence of obesity

    Prevalence of obesity is defined as the number of participants in the sample with obesity in their medical record out of the total sample. Obesity in pediatric populations is determined using BMI-for-age and obesity in adult populations is determined using BMI. BMI is calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the height in meters squared. Participants will be considered to have obesity if: * There is a diagnosis of obesity in the medical record in a clinical encounter, problem list, and/or past medical history * For children 17 years and younger: there is an available growth chart/height/weight/other data necessary to calculate the BMI-for-age and the BMI-for-age is at or above the 95th percentile * For adults 18 years and older: there is a BMI at or above 30 kg/m2 or the data necessary to calculate BMI and it is at or above 30 kg/m2

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

  3. Cardiometabolic diagnoses - prevalence of dyslipidemia

    Prevalence of metabolic syndrome is defined as the number of participants in the sample with dyslipidemia in their medical record out of the total sample. Dyslipidemia will be defined as: * Diagnosis of dyslipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia in a clinical encounter, problem list, and/or past medical history * Laboratory evidence of elevated total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, and/or low HDL for sex and age

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

  4. Cardiometabolic diagnoses-prevalence of hypertension

    Prevalence of hypertension is defined as the number of participants in the sample with evidence of hypertension in their medical record out of the total sample. Evidence of hypertension includes: * Formal diagnosis of hypertension in a clinical encounter, problem list, and/or past medical history * For children under 13 years old: a blood pressure reading at or above the 95th percentile for age, height, and sex * For children between 13 and 17 years old: a blood pressure reading at or above 130/80 mmHg * For adults 18 years or older: a blood pressure reading at or above 140/90 mmHg

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

  5. Autoimmune diagnoses - prevalence of hypothyroidism and of hyperthyroidism

    Prevalence of hypothyroidism is defined as the number of participants in the sample with evidence of hypertension in their medical record out of the total sample.

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

  6. Autoimmune diagnoses - prevalence of diabetes

    Prevalence of diabetes is defined as the number of participants in the sample with evidence of hypertension in their medical record out of the total sample. Both type 1 and type 2 are included.

    Time frame: From study start until condition observed, up to 15 years

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 18, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
