Exercise hope: new study tests Muscle-Strengthening in kids with DMD
NCT ID NCT07581743
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test different types of strengthening exercises in 45 children aged 6 to 10 with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The goal is to see if these exercises can improve muscle strength, walking distance, and chemical markers in the blood. The results could help guide physical therapy to keep children active and independent longer.
