There are very few people with this microdeletion so dont expect too much info. my daughter is 36 and we are still trying to get information and treatments for her. We are aware of 10 other people with 1p13.3 and they all have very different symptoms. The geneticist may not have a lot of info for you but hang in there. Most of our kids are relatively healthy and do fairly well in comparison to many people with genetic disorders. let me know how you appointment goes.

We just found out yesterday that my daughter has a Microdeletion on this chromosome 1p13.3. She is 8 months old, cannot rollover or sit up. She is verbal in her own way ( She's a baby) but we are just getting started with all this. Any advice? I am about to be referred to a Genticist. Thanks.

I have just found this site. My son is 8 and has 1p13.3p21.1deletion. He is non-verbal, has epilepsy and is incontinent. I haven't found any similar conditions before. I am in Australia.

So glad to hear from you! Glad John is doing better. Kim is too. We had a rough couple of years but she is really doing a lot better lately.

Hi Wildeerth, Is John your son? Is he also missing part of this chromosome? I think it's neat that they can find out this stuff about our genes now, but also kind of scary since so much is still a mystery. Thanks for the info, and take care! P.S. Hi Nightsong!
Clinical Trials
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures for rare diseases. The CoRDS team works with patient advocacy groups, individuals and researchers to help in the advancement of research in over 7,000 rare diseases. The registry is free for patients to enroll and researchers to access.
Enrolling is easy.
- Complete the screening form.
- Review the informed consent.
- Answer the permission and data sharing questions.
After these steps, the enrollment process is complete. All other questions are voluntary. However, these questions are important to patients and their families to create awareness as well as to researchers to study rare diseases. This is why we ask our participants to update their information annually or anytime changes to their information occur.
Researchers can contact CoRDS to determine if the registry contains participants with the rare disease they are researching. If the researcher determines there is a sufficient number of participants or data on the rare disease of interest within the registry, the researcher can apply for access. Upon approval from the CoRDS Scientific Advisory Board, CoRDS staff will reach out to participants on behalf of the researcher. It is then up to the participant to determine if they would like to join the study.
Visit sanfordresearch.org/CoRDS to enroll.
