View clinical trials related to Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne.
Filter by:Examining two strategies as potential adjuvant therapies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD); aerobic exercise training (to induce adaptations in skeletal muscle and improve cardiovascular health) and tadalafil, an FDA-approved vasodilator (to optimize blood flow and muscle perfusion which is impaired and often overlooked in DMD). Target: improved muscle function, vascular health, and DMD treatment.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of BMN 351 in participants with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) with a genetic mutation amenable to exon 51 skipping.
This study will help determine if an Interactive Virtual Reality system can improve the physiotherapy of young patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
This is a multicenter, prospective, observational Phase 4 study in the United States. The study is designed to collect both medical history and prospective data on Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treatment outcomes in participants receiving delandistrogene moxeparvovec as part of clinical care, compared to participants with DMD receiving or prescribed to start chronic glucocorticoid treatment at baseline in routine clinical practice. In addition, treatment outcomes will be collected prospectively from post-trial participants who have received delandistrogene moxeparvovec through participation in select SRP-9001 studies.
AOC 1044-CS2 (EXPLORE44-OLE) is an Open-label Study to Evaluate the Pharmacodynamics and Long-Term Safety and Tolerability of AOC 1044 Administered Intravenously to DMD Participants with Mutations Amenable to Exon 44 Skipping.
This is a gene transfer therapy study evaluating the safety of delandistrogene moxeparvovec and delandistrogene moxeparvovec dystrophin expression in association with imlifidase, in participants with DMD with pre-existing antibodies to rAAVrh74 over a period of 104 weeks.
This research study is testing whether an experimental drug, called SRD-001, is safe and helps the weakened heart of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) regain its ability to effectively pump blood to the rest of the body. SRD-001 is a form of gene therapy. The goal of SRD-001 gene therapy is to provide the heart muscle cells with extra copies of the SERCA2a gene so that they can produce more SERCA2a protein to help the heart muscle cells squeeze/contract better. Researchers will compare SRD-001 treated participants with no-treatment participants; all participants will continue to take their current heart medications. All participants will be followed very closely for 2 years and undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging of their heart at baseline, year 1 and year 2 along with assessment of upper limb function and lung function. After the 2 years of close follow-up, all participants will roll over into long-term follow-up where they will be called biannually for information on their current medical status.
The purpose of this study is ; to evaluate the effects of aquatic therapy applied in addition to conventional physical therapy on balance, functionality and quality of life in children with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy.
This study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of 6PBRT in individuals with DMD and its applicability on these patients.
Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) is present in the maternal blood from the early first trimester of gestation and makes up 5%-20% of the total circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal plasma. Its presence in maternal plasma has allowed development of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis for single-gene disorders (SGD-NIPD). This can be performed from 9 weeks of amenorrhea and offers an early, safe and accurate definitive diagnosis without the miscarriage risk associated with invasive procedures. One of the major difficulties is distinguishing fetal genotype in the high background of maternal cfDNA, which leads to several technical and analytical challenges. Besides, unlike noninvasive prenatal testing for aneuploidy, NIPD for monogenic diseases represent a smaller market opportunity, and many cases must be provided on a bespoke, patient- or disease-specific basis. As a result, implementation of SGD-NIPD remained sparse, with most testing being delivered in a research setting. The present project aims to take advantage of the unique French collaborative network to make SGD-NIPD possible for theoretically any monogenic disorder and any family.
