NCT ID NCT07172971

Summary

This study aims to understand how a heart medication called empagliflozin is processed by the bodies of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Researchers will give the drug to 10 young DMD patients of different ages and sizes and measure its levels in their blood over 24 hours. The goal is to gather information to determine the safest and most effective dose for future studies aimed at treating DMD-related heart disease.
