NCT ID NCT05794139

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested an experimental drug called NMD670 in 52 adults with type 3 spinal muscular atrophy who can still walk. The goal was to see if the drug helps them walk farther in 6 minutes and improves muscle strength compared to a placebo. The trial is now complete, and results will show whether NMD670 can ease symptoms of this muscle-weakening condition.
