MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES

This program provides access to an experimental drug, AOC 1044, for people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) whose genetic mutation can be treated by skipping exon 44. The goal is to help control the disease and improve muscle function. Participants must be at least 2 years …

This study tests an oral drug called SAT-3247 in 51 boys aged 7 to 10 with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who can still walk. The goal is to find the best dose, check safety, and see if it helps muscle strength. Participants take the drug or a placebo for 12 weeks, and all continue …

This study tests a new medicine called DYNE-251 in boys aged 4 to 18 with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who can still walk. The goal is to see if it helps them move better and slows muscle damage. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo every 4 weeks for about …

This study tests a brain implant that records and stimulates brain areas to help adults with severe paralysis (from spinal cord injury, ALS, or stroke) control assistive devices like computers or wheelchairs. The main goal is to check safety, and researchers will also see if part…

This study is testing a handheld device called mScan that uses a tiny, painless electrical current to measure muscle health. Researchers want to see if it can give similar results to an MRI, but faster and more conveniently. The study involves 150 adults with and without muscle d…

This early-stage study tests a brain implant called BrainGate in just 3 people with severe paralysis or speech loss from conditions like ALS or spinal cord injury. The goal is to see if the device is safe and can let users control a computer cursor or other tools by thought alone…

This early study tests whether a brain implant can help people with severe paralysis from conditions like ALS, spinal cord injury, or stroke control devices using their thoughts. The implant records brain signals to decode text or synthesized speech. Only 3 adults will participat…

This study aims to find better ways to measure fatigue and walking problems in people with neuromuscular diseases like muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy. Researchers will use a wearable sensor to track physical activity for one week in daily life and during a walking…

This study tests a brain implant that reads signals from the brain to help people who have lost the ability to speak fluently communicate through a computer just by trying to talk. It involves up to 2 participants with conditions like spinal cord injury or ALS. The main goal is t…
