New drugs aim to slow muscle decline in duchenne muscular dystrophy

NCT ID NCT07682129

First seen Jul 02, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026

Summary

This study tests two experimental drugs, ENTR-601-44 and ENTR-601-45, in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who have already taken part in earlier studies. The goal is to see if long-term use is safe and tolerable, and whether it can help maintain muscle function. Participants receive regular intravenous infusions and undergo tests like blood work, physical exams, and muscle biopsies. The study also tracks changes in walking speed and other physical abilities over time.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

ENTR-601-44 and ENTR-601-45 (intravenous infusions)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that long-term treatment with these drugs is safe and may help preserve muscle function in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase extension study, so it is small and not designed to prove effectiveness. The drugs may cause side effects or not work as hoped.
