  • Ages 12 to 20 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Patients with theoretically exon 53 skipping-treatable DMD

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy confirmed by at least genetic testing, theoretically treatable by exon 53 skipping.
  • Age between ≥ 12 and <20 years old.
  • Non ambulant patients (i;e; inability to walk more than 10 meters without any of assistance).
  • Patients covered by a national health insurance scheme.
  • Signed informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Patient incapable of sitting upright in a wheelchair for at least one hour.
  • Patients with severe intellectual impairment preventing them from fully understanding the exercises to be performed.
  • Recent (less than 6 months ago) upper limb surgery or trauma This criteria is however no definitive. Patients who have undergone upper limb surgery or trauma may nonetheless be enrolled once the 6 month period is over.
  • Known immune deficiency.
  • Contraindications to NMR exams
