NCT ID NCT05429372

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study tested a gene therapy called fordadistrogene movaparvovec in 10 boys with early-stage Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The goal was to see if it was safe and could help their muscles produce a shortened version of the missing protein, dystrophin. The trial was terminated early, so results are limited. Participants had to have a confirmed genetic diagnosis and no antibodies to the virus used to deliver the therapy.
