Patient Registry
With such a rare disease, every patient participant is critical to our success.
Please be part of solving the mystery that is KLS!
The KLS Foundation partnered with public health research firm Beneufit to create a patient registry that will accelerate our collective understanding and treatment of KLS. The registry serves the dual purposes of being a contact database to maintain an accurate list of KLS patients, families and doctors—which will further the Foundation’s ability to support both patients and physicians; and a research database to support scientific research and disease understanding by collecting medical histories and specific disease information.
All patient information will be kept confidential in accordance with HIPAA laws. The KLS patient registry has been approved by a U.S. Institutional Review Board (IRB) and is compliant under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The registry was developed and launched with funding raised from individual donors to the KLS Foundation.
