Filter by:The aim of this project is (1) to investigate whether or not structural muscle abnormalities could be a consequence of the disorder and (2) to provide further clinical description of this rare phenotype. To do so, the investigators will (1) use Dixon MRI to quantify fatty infiltration in muscle tissue and compare it to muscle strength measurements from isometric dynamometry in order to access contractility and (2) describe the myotonic phenotype with simple squeeze test and questionnaires.
This is an open-label, multi-centre, single arm, interventional study to describe the steady-state PK, safety, and efficacy of mexiletine in paediatric patients (6 to <18 years of age) with myotonic disorders.
Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Mexiletine in Paediatric Patients with Myotonic Disorders Who Have Completed the MEX-NM-301 study.
The Myotonic Dystrophy Family Registry (MDFR) is an online, patient-entered database that collects information on myotonic dystrophy (DM) to aid researchers in developing new, effective treatments and help identify participants for research studies and clinical trials.
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are inherited disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and loss of muscle tissue. The purpose of this registry is to connect people with DM or FSHD with researchers studying these diseases. The registry will offer individuals with DM and FSHD an opportunity to participate in research that focuses of their diseases. The registry will also help scientists to accomplish research on DM and FSHD and to distribute their findings to patients and care providers.
