NCT ID NCT05689164

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 7 people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who previously received an experimental gene therapy called fordadistrogene movaparvovec. Researchers will monitor them for 10 years to check for side effects and see if the treatment continues to help with movement. The goal is to better understand the therapy's long-term safety and effectiveness.
