Filter by:This is a multicenter prospective non-drug screening study. The working period is 12 months. There is no research product to be followed or used in the study. Demographic data, medical and family histories of the patients included in the study will be collected at the first admission. The following laboratory values of the patients will be collected: - Alanine Transaminase (ALT) - Aspartate Transaminase (AST) - Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) - Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) - In addition, physical examination information and Abdominal USG and Liver Biopsy Results, if any, will be collected. Following the above scans, enzyme analysis for late-onset Pompe disease in boys and girls and adolescents with high CPK levels and molecular genetic tests for Duchenne muscular dystrophy in boys and adolescents with high CPK levels will be performed.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Viltolarsen compared to placebo in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients amenable to exon 53 skipping.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral weekly glucocorticoid steroids in patients with Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD), an inherited disorder in which patients experience weakness of the legs and pelvis, and Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD), an inherited disorder in which patients experience progressive muscular weakness predominately in their hip and shoulders. The primary objective is safety which we the investigators will measure using laboratory testing and forced vital capacity (FVC), a breathing test that measures the strength of your lungs. The secondary objective is efficacy which will be measured by a change in MRI muscle mass, improved muscle performance, and quality of life. The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive oral weekly glucocorticoid steroids will have improviements in strength and quality of life compared to their baseline. Furthermore, the investigators anticipate that oral weekly glucocorticoid steroids will not have significant adverse impact on patients.
This study examine whether an evidence-based individual user-preferred exercise program will increase the physical activity level in boys with Duchenne muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
This study is being conducted to determine if DMD patients / families and healthcare providers experience burdens related to access, and if so, to identify them, and to determine life impacts to the patient, if any, of these burdens. Data from healthcare providers will be collected by an online survey and from patients/families by one on one telephone interview.
The aim of this population based study is to examine, quantify and describe physical activity level in Norwegian boys with DMD, and to compare the level of physical activity level between boys with DMD and age matched healthy boys. A co-project will validate ActiGraph accelerometry to measure physical activity in boys with DMD.
Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy and Becker Dystrophy, hereafter DMD and BMD, is a serious and progressive disease that affects 1 in 3,500-6,000 males born alive. Scale 6-minute walking test, is used for determine the inclusion of children with DMD in pharmacological studies. Furthemore, is used to verify a training effectiveness assessing muscular endurance and cardio-respiratory functions. This Research evaluates the feasibility and effectiveness of a multimodal physiotherapist program with virtual reality glasses.
This study is designed to generate additional data on the effect of ataluren for producing dystrophin protein in nonsense mutation nmDMD participants. This study will evaluate dystrophin levels from participants with nmDMD who currently have been receiving ataluren for ≥9 months. The study will have a single visit (Visit 1).
BLS-M22 is being developed as an anti-myostatin agent for the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (Muscular Dystrophy). A total of 37 subjects participated in this study to confirm the safety of BLS-M22.
The aim of our study is to Assess skeletal muscle structural status in children with inflammatory myositis and Duchenne muscular dystrophy using musculoskeletal ultrasound and to perform a longitudinal follow up of these changes over 2 years and to assess the relation between these findings with clinical parameters, functional scales, biochemical and electromyographic tests.
