Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

This Phase 2 trial tests a drug called RO7204239 in 51 adults with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a genetic condition that causes progressive muscle weakness. The drug is an antibody that blocks myostatin, a protein that normally limits muscle growth, to help pres…

This study is for people with FSHD, a genetic disease that causes muscle weakness. It tests the long-term safety and how well the body tolerates a drug called AOC 1020, given through a vein. About 84 adults who completed a previous study will take part. The main goal is to check …

This study aims to create a simple test battery to determine fall risk in people with neuromuscular disorders, such as muscular dystrophy or ALS. Researchers will assess 108 participants using several physical tests like walking, standing, and rising from a chair. The goal is to …

This study looked at whether having more frequent contact with a clinician (at least once a week) improves satisfaction for people with long-lasting musculoskeletal conditions. Participants were split into two groups: one with standard contact and one with extra check-ins via tex…

This study tests whether a Norwegian clinic (NSAC) helps people with common mental health issues or muscle pain return to work sooner. 2500 adults are split into three groups: one gets treatment quickly, one waits 10-14 weeks, and one gets a basic check-up. Researchers will track…

This study involves 324 adults with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) across 14 international sites. Researchers are testing two new measurement tools—a functional test called FSHD-COM and a muscle-impedance device—to better track disease progression. The goal is to i…

This study looks back at the medical records of about 4 million people who had physical or occupational therapy for muscle and joint problems. Researchers want to see if different ways of giving therapy lead to different results. No new treatments are tested—the goal is to learn …

This study aimed to see if a mobile monitoring tool could accurately identify surgical site infections (SSIs) in orthopedic surgery patients, compared to the usual manual review. The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. It was design…

This study is working to create better tools for measuring muscle function in people with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Researchers will follow 100 adults with FSHD for up to 24 months, testing new ways to track disease progression. The goal is to make future cli…

This study aims to find better ways to measure disease progression in people with advanced facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) who use wheelchairs. Researchers will test various muscle strength and function tests over two years in 30 adults. The goal is to develop relia…

This observational study will enroll 40 adults with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) to understand how muscle degeneration affects movement. Researchers will use MRI to assess muscle health and 3D motion capture to analyze walking and posture. The goal is to create a…
