NCT ID NCT07429240

First seen Mar 04, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a one-time gene-editing treatment called PBGENE-DMD in 18 boys aged 2-7 with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The goal is to see if it is safe and can restore dystrophin, a protein missing in DMD. The treatment aims to correct the genetic error by removing a faulty section of DNA. While not a cure, it may slow or stop disease progression.
