Neuromuscular diseases (NMD)

This study tests an experimental drug called AOC 1044 for boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who have a specific genetic change (exon 44 skipping). About 70 boys aged 7 to 16 who can still walk will receive either the drug or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the dru…

This trial is testing a robotic exoskeleton called ABLE Kids to see if it is safe and practical for children who have trouble walking due to conditions like cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, or muscle weakness. Fifteen children will use the device in up to ten one-hour training…

This study tests a new medicine called DYNE-251 in boys aged 4 to 18 with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who can still walk. The goal is to see if it helps them move better and slows muscle damage. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo every 4 weeks for about …

This phase 3 trial tests a single dose of NTLA-2001, a gene-editing therapy, in 60 adults with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN), a rare genetic disease that damages nerves. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the active treatmen…

This study tests whether a personalized exercise program can improve balance and physical function in adults with rare neuromuscular disorders like Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, and myotonic dystrophy type 1. Participants will receive a 12-d…

This study tests whether whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (WB-EMS) can help adults with neuromuscular diseases like ALS, SMA, and muscular dystrophy exercise safely. Because these conditions weaken the nerves that control muscles, traditional exercise is often too hard. W…

This study tests a new home-based program that uses a special treadmill and virtual reality to help children with conditions like cerebral palsy, muscle diseases, or obesity improve their walking. About 30 children aged 6 to 17 will try the program at home for at least 3 sessions…

This study collects blood, skin, and spinal fluid samples along with health information from 2,500 adults with neuromuscular diseases like ALS, neuropathy, and muscular dystrophy. The goal is to store these samples and share them with researchers to speed up discoveries about how…

This study looks back at the last 10 years in Denmark to understand how many people use breathing machines at home through a tube in their windpipe. Researchers will track which diseases lead to this need and how many patients survive one year after starting. The goal is to spot …

This study is checking whether a common nerve test called needle EMG causes muscle bleeding in people taking blood thinners (DOACs). About 30 minutes after the test, researchers will use ultrasound to look for any small bleeds in the muscles where the needle went in. The goal is …
