Filter by:This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose escalation study aimed at evaluating the safety, early efficacy and potential biomarkers of (+)-epicatechin in patients with Becker or Becker-like Muscular Dystrophy (BMD).
Relation between clinical and genetic features and acute digestive events in Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients
Foot and body postures of patients with DMD will be evaluated. Foot structure characteristics such as foot length, metatarsal width, calcaneal valgus angle will be calculated for the foot posture. Also, the Foot Posture Index (FPI-6) scale will be used. The body posture will be evaluated with the New York Posture Scale. Many gait characteristics such as step length, cadence, support surface of the patients will be determined with GaitRite instrumented walkway. Patients' balance assessment will be evaluated with Bertec Balance Advantage. The statistical analysis method will determine the relationship between foot and body posture and gait and balance.
The purpose of the study is to explore the biomarker Fast Troponins response to exercise in patients with Becker muscular dystrophy, Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and McArdle disease
This study is designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) in male children with nmDMD aged ≥6 months to <2 years treated daily for 24 weeks with orally administered ataluren 10, 10, and 20 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) (morning, mid-day, and evening dose, respectively).
Spinal cord injuries and people with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy or Infant Spinal Muscular Atrophy (ISA) are prone to pain and pressure sores associated with prolonged sitting. For this reason, it is recommended that people with spinal cord injuries release pressure every 15 to 30 minutes and motorized wheelchair users use the electric positioning functions at least 1 minute every hour. The aim is to prevent and/or reduce pain and pressure sores. These devices could help to observe daily the variability of users' pressure maps, their impact on occupational performance, the link with pain and redness and could propose customized adjustments.
The purpose of this project is to devise instrumented insoles capable of accurately measuring gait at each footfall, over multiple hours in any environment. To achieve high accuracy, the investigators will develop a new learning-based calibration framework. Features will be tested in controlled lab settings 39 during a single visit in people with SMA (13), DMD (13) and healthy controls (13) and in 15 participants in real-life environments.
This is an 48-week open-label study to determine the efficacy and safety of AMONDYS 45, EXONDYS 51, VYONDYS 53 for the treatment of boys with duchenne muscular dystrophy who have a single exon duplication of either exon 45, 51 or 53, respectively. There will be weekly infusions and two muscle biopsies at baseline and at month 12.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is the most common neuromuscular disease in childhood with an estimate incidence of 1 in 3500 to 5000 male births. The effect of aerobic training on muscle architectural properties and motor functions such as muscle activation is not clear in DMD. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of aerobic training on these parameters in children with DMD. Twenty children with DMD included in the study will be divided into two groups as home program and home program+aerobic training with block randomization method. Home program including stretching, respiratory, range of motion and mild resistance exercise with body weight will be asked to apply 3-5 days a week for 12 weeks, aerobic training will be performed 3 days a week for 12 weeks at 60% of their maximum hearth rate with 50 minutes total duration consisting of 10 min warm up and 10 min cool down period. Muscle architectural properties, muscle strength, muscle activation and motor function will be assessed with ultrasonographic, hand-held myometry, surface EMG and Motor Function Measure, consecutively. Assessments will be applied at pre-training and after 12 weeks of training.
This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of NS-089/NCNP-02 in subjects diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and to determine the dosage for subsequent studies.
