Heart gene link explored in muscular dystrophy study
NCT ID NCT07515235
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to understand how different types of changes in the DMD gene are linked to heart problems in boys and young men with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. Researchers will use heart tests and blood samples to look for early signs of heart issues. The study involves 65 male participants aged 2 to 24. The goal is to improve early detection and care for heart complications in these conditions.
