Registry Information

Join the community – Sign up below

Welcome Parents & Caregivers

We are glad you found us. The KCNT1 community is comprised of generous parents and caregivers who will share their knowledge and experiences, and help you know you are not alone in this fight. The KCNT1 Foundation serves as the central point of contact and is keeping a Family Contact List of families impacted by this disease. With this membership list we will share updates on new discoveries, educational resources and opportunities to participate in outside studies. Also through our Research Registry you participate in Foundation research studies and can elect to be notified of study and clinical trial opportunities. With your consent, we can share your de-identified data with researchers and drug developers who are focused on KCNT1.

If you need assistance, email us at info@kcnt1epilepsy.org and we will schedule a time to help you.

Complete These Steps to Join the Community

1. Create a Unique ID (optional)

Take 3 minutes to create a unique Clinical Research ID (The CRID) for your child. This allows you to enter your child’s data in clinical research without sharing your personal information. Enter this ID into the Family Contact Form (in the next step) and use it in surveys you take through our Research Registry . By using your CRID number, researchers can then reuse, merge and share your research data (without using your personal identity). It’s a free service and we’ll never sell or share your information with anyone. Click to Create CRID Number

2. Join our Family Contact List

Completion of this form will add you to the KCNT1 database for our newsletters, announcements and social mailings. We will use it to notify you of clinical trials. This database is not shared with external organizations. If you provide permission to share your name with other families, we may reach out to you to introduce you to other KCNT1 families in your area. This is open to persons from every country and is independent of whether you join the Research Registry and consent to research. Click to Join and become a member of the KCNT1 community. Click here: Family Contact Form

4. Enroll in our RESEARCH REGISTRY

Create an account on our secure data platform, LunaDna. Through this platform the Foundation can send you health-related surveys that will provide insight to how the symptoms of this disease progress. You will create a login and answer the questions on your child’s or ward’s behalf. You will be notified of new surveys throughout the year.

If you are an adult with KCNT1-related epilepsy, or have lost a child to KCNT1 epilepsy, we encourage you to create an account as well.

You must use this link in order to access the KCNT1-specific surveys. If you need assistance, email us at info@kcnt1epilepsy.org and we will schedule a time to help you. Click to Sign Up for Registry on LunaDNA

3. Enroll in Citizen/Invitae

https://bit.ly/KCNT1-EF Join us!

U.S. based families can enroll in Ciitizen to have all of your child’s medical records and notes gathered into one place. Join other parents in pooling those de-identified records so we can study trends with KCNT1 disease progression. You’ll need your child’s birth certificate, genetic testing results, a drivers license or ID, and a list of your doctors and hospitals. Enrollment opening soon!

5. Join Our Facebook Page and Support Groups

Follow the KCNT1 Epilepsy Foundation Facebook page here

Also, Parents and caregivers are encouraged to participate in private Facebook Groups. You must be approved to join these. Experienced parents are a helpful resource and a provide a warm welcome and support just when you need it.

6. Gather Genetic Test and EEGs

It is important to keep a copy of your child’s genetic testing report. Many studies require this information in order to determine if you are qualified to participate. In addition, the Foundation will be working with researchers to learn more about this disease through genetic studies.

Also, obtain CDs with your EEG results. EEG patterns may be unique to KCNT1. We can only know this by studying these EEG test results. While it is not always easy to obtain medical records from your doctors, we encourage you to request these for future studies.
