Trial summary

Many therapeutic trials in DMD exclude non-ambulatory boys and men. Rate of progression in these non-ambulatory patients has been studied but consensus has not been reached for what measures are most reliable and reproducible. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 7 to 22 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Non ambulatory boys and men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Who may be able to join

  • For Non-ambulatory study, boys must be unable to walk without assistive devices for greater than or equal to one year.
  • Age at onset of study for non-ambulatory boys and men: greater than or equal to 7 years through age 22 years.
  • Genetic or biopsy confirmation of dystrophinopathy or clinical diagnosis of DMD with biopsy/genetic confirmation in a primary relative.

Who cannot join

  • 1. For Non-ambulatory study, the inability to understand and cooperate with the testing would exclude a subject. -

About this study

Official title: Clinical Outcomes Validation in Non Ambulatory and Young Boys/Men With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)

Many therapeutic trials in DMD exclude non-ambulatory boys and men. Rate of progression in these non-ambulatory patients has been studied but consensus has not been reached for what measures are most reliable and reproducible. Furthermore, any treatment trial would be expected to demonstrate improved function and improvement in quality of life. Therefore, function, strength, and quality of life must be understood and standardized. While the goal of this proposal is to standardize clinical outcomes for therapeutic trials, careful understanding of the progression of DMD in non ambulatory boys may also lead to better medical treatment.

Read the detailed description

For Non-ambulatory study, boys must be unable to walk without assistive devices for greater than or equal to one year.

Age at onset of study for non-ambulatory boys and men: greater than or equal to 7 years through age 22 years.

Genetic or biopsy confirmation of dystrophinopathy or clinical diagnosis of DMD with biopsy/genetic confirmation in a primary relative.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, run by Washington University School of Medicine at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dystrophin gene mutations that predispose to early onset cardiomyopathy (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
