Volunteer for glycogen storage disease type III (GSDIII) research studies

Glycogen storage disease type III (GSDIII), also known as Cori disease and Forbes disease, is a rare genetic disorder that causes glycogen (a type of sugar that the body uses for energy) to build up in the liver and muscles, preventing them from working properly.

GSDIII research is progressing, but can’t move forward without volunteers. Learn more about opportunities to participate in clinical research studies.

About clinical trials

Research studies and clinical trials test whether a new potential treatment is safe and effective for patients. In some cases, volunteering for research can be done from the comfort of your home. There are many reasons people choose to participate in research and join clinical trials, including access to treatment and receiving quality care. Consider taking advantage of the opportunity to share your experience with your disease or condition. The decision to join a clinical trial or a research study is always a personal choice, and you can leave a clinical trial at any time, for any reason.
