Overview
MyVHL is a multi-patient database which helps researchers identify patterns across VHL patients. MyVHL provides you -and researchers -with more complete information about VHL, like how your lifestyle, medications, and other factors impact the disease and quality of life. These insights help you better understand the condition and help researchers know where to focus their efforts. Due to its rarity, there is less understanding of VHL and the factors that may have an impact. The data individuals provide in MyVHL helps researchers identify and uncover factors that may increase risk, inhibit or slow tumor growth, or lead to an effective cure.
Primary outcome measures
- Number of patients with CNS, kidney, adrenal, retinal, thyroid, ear, and pancreatic tumors, along with cystadenomas and lesions in the lungs, liver and skin, as they relate to VHL, BHD, HLRCC, and SDHB and specific genetic mutation. [Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year.]
- Size of tumors in patients with CNS, kidney, adrenal, retinal, thyroid, ear, and pancreatic tumors, along with cystadenomas and lesions in the lungs, liver and skin, as they relate to VHL, BHD, HLRCC, and SDHB and specific genetic mutation. [Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year.]
