Gene therapy trial offers hope for rare muscle disease

NCT ID NCT05224505

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether a new gene therapy called GNT0006 is safe for people with FKRP-related limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMDR9). Six patients will receive the treatment, which delivers a working copy of the FKRP gene directly to muscle cells. Researchers will monitor participants for five years to check for side effects and see if the treatment helps improve muscle function and quality of life.
