Summary

This study aims to find better ways to measure disease progression in people with advanced facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) who use wheelchairs. Researchers will test various muscle strength and function tests over two years in 30 adults. The goal is to develop reliable tools for future treatment trials in this group.

Inclusion Criteria: * Genetically confirmed FSHD1 or clinical diagnosis of FSHD with characteristic findings on exam and an affected parent or offspring * Age 18-75 years * Symptomatic limb weakness * FSHD patients who use the wheelchair daily and are able to stand or to walk at most 30 meters with assistance, and wheelchair-bound patients who are unable to walk. * Clinical severity score (CSS) ≥ 8 * Patient affiliated to the social security system * Patient giving written consent after written and oral information. * If taking over the counter supplements, willing to remain consistent with supplement regimen throughout the course of the study Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with comorbidity not related to the disease that can modify the natural evolution of the disease or would interfere with safe testing in the opinion of the Investigator * Regular use of available muscle anabolic/catabolic agents such as corticosteroids, oral testosterone or derivatives, or oral beta agonists * Use of an experimental drug in an FSHD clinical trial within the past 30 days * Pregnancy * Vulnerable person (person deprived of their administrative and legal liberty, hospitalized person for other purposes than research)
