Qualitative or quantitative protein defects in neuromuscular diseases

This study tests whether cycling while using a virtual park app can slow the loss of motor function in children and teens with neuromuscular diseases like muscular dystrophy. Twenty-two participants will first receive standard care for 3 months, then use the virtual park bike 3 t…

This study follows children and adults worldwide who have a rare genetic muscle disease called TNNT1 myopathy. Researchers aim to document how the disease progresses over time, including survival and motor milestones. The goal is to identify reliable measures that can be used in …

This study will collect electronic health records from up to 2500 people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy, including female carriers, across U.S. clinics. The data will be combined with patient-reported information to give researchers a fuller picture of the diseases. T…

This study is building a worldwide online registry for people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy, including female carriers. Participants share their health information to help researchers learn more about the disease and to match patients with clinical trials. The goal i…

This research study at Boston Children's Hospital is looking at the genes and proteins involved in congenital myopathies—rare muscle diseases that are present from birth. Researchers will analyze DNA from up to 4,000 participants, including patients and their family members, to f…

This study follows 100 people in Spain with nemaline myopathy, a rare muscle disease, to see how their symptoms change over time. Researchers will use ultrasound, movement tests, and breathing checks to map the disease's natural course. The goal is to build a detailed patient dat…

This study is a registry that collects health information from people in Switzerland who have neuromuscular disorders like SMA, DMD, BMD, and others. It aims to track symptoms, treatments, and outcomes over time to help researchers and doctors improve care. No new treatments are …

This 24-month observational study will follow up to 1000 people with certain types of muscular dystrophy (LGMD, DM2, and late-onset Pompe disease) aged 6-50. Researchers want to see if specific physical tests, like the North Star Assessment and a 100-meter walk, are good ways to …
