DMD-related muscular dystrophy

This study tested the safety of golodirsen (Vyondys 53) in boys and men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who can no longer walk. Only 2 people took part before the trial was stopped early. Participants received weekly IV infusions for up to 96 weeks, with extra follow-up. The goa…

This phase 2 study tested a drug called PGN-EDO51 in 7 people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy whose genetic mutation can be corrected by skipping exon 51. The drug was given by IV infusion to see if it is safe and tolerable. The trial was terminated, so results are limited.

This study tested a gene therapy (delandistrogene moxeparvovec) combined with a drug called imlifidase to see if it could safely deliver the therapy to boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who had antibodies that might block the treatment. Only 5 participants were planned, but t…

This Phase 2 trial tested a single dose of gene therapy (fordadistrogene movaparvovec) in 10 boys with early-stage Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The goal was to check safety and whether the therapy could help muscles produce a mini-dystrophin protein. The study was terminated earl…

This study follows 7 people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who previously received an experimental gene therapy called fordadistrogene movaparvovec. Researchers will monitor them for 10 years to check for side effects and see if the treatment continues to help with movement. Th…

This early-stage trial tested a single infusion of gene therapy (PF-06939926) in 23 people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, both those who could still walk and those who could not. The main goal was to check safety and tolerability, while also measuring dystrophin protein levels…

This early study tested whether a blood-cleaning procedure called plasmapheresis could allow boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who have antibodies against the gene therapy carrier to still receive the treatment. Only 3 boys were enrolled before the study was stopped early. Th…

This study tested whether two gut hormones, GIP and GLP-2, could reduce bone breakdown in children with spinal muscular atrophy, cerebral palsy, or Duchenne muscular dystrophy who use wheelchairs. Participants received a liquid meal and then either a hormone injection or a placeb…

This study collected bone, cartilage, skin, and fat tissue from 50 patients undergoing surgery at Children's National Medical Center. The goal was to grow cells from these tissues in the lab and analyze them to better understand bone and connective tissue diseases. The study was …
