First human test of gene therapy for devastating muscle disease

NCT ID NCT03362502

Summary

This was an early safety study by Pfizer for a new gene therapy, PF-06939926, for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It tested a single intravenous dose in a small group of boys, both walking and non-walking, to see if it was safe and tolerable. The study also looked for early signs that the therapy might help produce the missing muscle protein, dystrophin.
