The INCLUDE (INvestigation of Co-occurring Conditions Across the Lifespan to Understand Down Syndrome) Project's Collaboration for Down Syndrome Progress (CDP) Program

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: RTI International

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The Collaboration for Down Syndrome Progress (CDP) is a long-term study that follows people with Down syndrome of all ages. The goal is to better understand their health, development, and everyday experiences over time. Participants and their caregivers will answer questions, share medical information, and may give samples like blood or saliva. Some participants may also take part in optional activities such as sleep studies, movement tracking, or brain imaging. By collecting the same types of information at many sites, the CDP will help researchers learn why certain health conditions are more common in people with Down syndrome and how to improve care and quality of life.
