The Story of Cure CLCN6

Cure CLCN6 is committed to raising awareness of CLCN6 gene mutations, providing essential rare disease support and advocacy for affected children and their families, and funding the research and development of gene therapy initiatives and ultimately, a cure.

Meet Paxton

Paxton is the son of the founders of Cure CLCN6, Paul and Kristin.
Paxton was diagnosed with a CLCN6 mutation (F254S/Phe254Ser) variant in 2024, when he was seven years old.
Paxton is happy and loving boy who loves spending time with his family, going on the swings, playing with his stim toys, watching cartoons, and being with his friends at school. 

Paxton has lost speech and mobility over time, which highlights the urgency to develop a gene therapy treatment to stop neurodegeneration, to give him hope and an opportunity for a better future.
