TPM2-related myopathy

This study is testing a handheld device called mScan that uses a tiny, painless electrical current to measure muscle health. Researchers want to see if it can give similar results to an MRI, but faster and more conveniently. The study involves 150 adults with and without muscle d…

This study tests whether cycling while using a virtual park app can slow the loss of motor function in children and teens with neuromuscular diseases like muscular dystrophy. Twenty-two participants will first receive standard care for 3 months, then use the virtual park bike 3 t…

This research study at Boston Children's Hospital is looking at the genes and proteins involved in congenital myopathies—rare muscle diseases that are present from birth. Researchers will analyze DNA from up to 4,000 participants, including patients and their family members, to f…

This study follows 100 people in Spain with nemaline myopathy, a rare muscle disease, to see how their symptoms change over time. Researchers will use ultrasound, movement tests, and breathing checks to map the disease's natural course. The goal is to build a detailed patient dat…

This study is looking at whether a molecule in the blood called miR-1 can help doctors understand how muscle diseases like Duchenne muscular dystrophy and myotonic dystrophy are progressing. Researchers will compare miR-1 levels in 104 people, including patients with different mu…

This study aims to find better ways to measure fatigue and walking problems in people with neuromuscular diseases like muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy. Researchers will use a wearable sensor to track physical activity for one week in daily life and during a walking…
