This is a controlled, open-label, single-ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of SGT-001 in adolescents and children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Patients will receive a single intravenous (IV) infusion of SGT-001 and will be followed for approximately 5 years. The protocol was amended to drop the control arm after 4 subjects were dosed. Subjects currently enrolling are assigned to active treatment. Control subjects enrolled under original protocol will continue through the study per the original protocol.
This is a first-in-human/first-in-patient, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized, ascending dose, safety and tolerability study of a single intravenous infusion of PF-06939926 in ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Other objectives include measurement of dystrophin expression and distribution, and assessments of muscle strength, quality, and function. A total of approximately 22 subjects will receive PF-06939926, and these will include both ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects. Up to 13 subjects may be included in a cohort that includes the concomitant medication, sirolimus. In order to mitigate unanticipated risks to subject safety, enrollment will be staggered within and between two planned dose-levels and will include a formal review by an external data monitoring committee (E-DMC) prior to dose progression.
A randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, 48-week clinical trial with a core population (group A) of 79 ambulant 6.5 to 12 years old Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients that are under stable standard treatment of care with glucocorticoids. Furthermore, the investigators plan to include 6-20 non-ambulant patients who do not receive glucocorticoids (as parallel group B), 10 to 16 years old, to obtain efficacy and safety data in a broader DMD population. All patients will receive 20 mg of tamoxifen (TAM) or placebo once daily during 48 weeks. An open label extension (OLE) trial for participants of the TAMDMD main study will be performed. All TAMDMD patients on TAM or placebo are offered to enter this OLE.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating X-linked disease which leads to loss of ambulation between ages 7 and 13, respiratory failure and cardiomyopathy (CM) at any age, and inevitably premature death of affected young men in their late twenties. DMD is the most common fatal genetic disorder diagnosed in childhood. It affects approximately 1 in every 3,500 live male births across all races and cultures, and results in 20,000 new cases each year worldwide.Significant advances in respiratory care have unmasked CM as the leading cause of death. As there are yet no specific cardiac treatments to extend life, the current study aims to address this unmet medical need using a new therapeutic strategy for patients with DMD.

A cross-sectional study to explore the relationship between clinically assessed pulmonary function test (PFT) measures and transdiaphragmatic (Pdi) measures in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) as well as to explore the relationship between sniff nasal inspiratory pressure (SNIP) and transdiaphragmatic (Pdi) measures in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The proposed clinical trial study of rAAVrh74.MCK.GALGT2 for duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients. There will be a modified intravascular limb infusion (ILI) procedure that will be used to sequentially deliver vector to each whole lower limb of DMD subjects via a major lower limb artery.
This research study wants to learn more about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and exercise. Today it is unknown how exercising impacts boys with DMD. The investigators believe that increasing activity and aerobic exercise may help with heart, lung, and muscle function. The investigators are hoping to compare physical strength and blood samples of boys with DMD to see if there are any differences between kids who exercised more as a child versus those who didn't.
This is a phase 2, randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled study to evaluate the micro-macroscopic effects on muscles, the safety and tolerability, and the efficacy of givinostat in patients with Becker Muscular Dystrophy. Approximately 48 eligible patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to be treated with givinostat or placebo for a period of 12 months.
This is a 48-week open-label extension of our initial proof-of-concept study (UCD0113) in patients with Becker muscular dystrophy who participated in the earlier trial. This single center study will enroll up to 10 adults who will receive the purified nutritional extract (-)-epicatechin 100mg/day orally for 8 weeks. After screening visits, participants will be enrolled in the study if they meet all inclusion criteria. They will be evaluated at screening, baseline, and weeks 4, 8, 12, 24, 16 and 48. The main criterion for success of the study will be presence of one or more biologic or strength and performance outcome measures that yield a response magnitude that allows for sufficient power in a Phase II B study with a sample size of 30 individuals.
