Gene therapy readiness check: new study maps virus immunity in muscle disease patients
NCT ID NCT07633951
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test blood samples from 450 people aged 6 to 60 with inherited neuromuscular diseases to see if they have antibodies that could block gene therapy viruses (AAVs). The goal is to understand how common these antibodies are and which patients might be good candidates for future gene therapies. No treatment is given; it is an observational study to gather important information.
