NCT ID NCT01851447

First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study looks at blood markers (enzymes) in adults with a type of muscular dystrophy that makes muscle membranes fragile. Researchers want to see how these markers change with rest and exercise. The goal is to better understand the disease, not to provide treatment. Participants will make four 5-day visits to the NIH for blood draws, physical tests, and imaging.
