Gene therapy vs. steroids: Real-World duchenne battle

NCT ID NCT06270719

Summary

This study follows 500 boys and young men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy to compare a new gene therapy (delandistrogene moxeparvovec) against standard steroid treatment in real-world medical settings. Researchers will track walking ability, muscle function, heart health, and safety over time to see which approach works better. The study includes both walking and non-walking participants to understand how the treatments affect different stages of the disease.
