Trial summary

The purpose of this low interventional study is to collect data on everyday movement in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) using wearable activity sensors. The activity sensors could provide useful information beyond what is currently collected by functional (movement, strength) assessments in clinic. 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 4 to 12 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Study population: Ambulatory boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who receive care at Nationwide Children's Hospital

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy confirmed by medical history and genetic testing
  • Body weight between 15 and 50 kg
  • Receipt of glucocorticoids for 6 months and a stable daily dose for at least 3 months prior to study entry
  • Ability to rise from floor within seven (7) seconds and ability to walk

Who cannot join

  • Current exposure to systemic immunosuppressant agents other than glucocorticoids.
  • Prior exposure to any gene therapy agent, including exon-skipping and missense agents.
  • Exposure to other investigational drugs within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer.
  • Any injury which may impact functional testing per investigator's judgement. Previous injuries must be fully healed prior to consenting. Prior lower limb fractures must be fully healed and at least 3 months from injury date at screening.
  • Any planned surgeries which may impact physical activity and performance.
  • Presence or history of musculoskeletal or neurological disease in addition to DMD.

  • Any known allergies or skin reactions to stainless steel, versaflex, and silicon that may cause possible discomfort by wearable sensors.
  • Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, cancer, autoimmune or allergic disease that may interfere with the study conduct as per investigator's judgment, excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of screening.
  • Investigator site staff members directly involved in the conduct of the study and their family members, site staff members otherwise supervised by the investigator, or participants who are Pfizer employees, including their family members, directly involved in the conduct of the study.

About this study

Official title: A SINGLE-SITE, PROSPECTIVE, NATURAL HISTORY LOW INTERVENTIONAL STUDY TO ESTABLISH NORMATIVE DATA OF REAL-WORLD ACTIVITY MEASURES USING WEARABLE SENSORS IN AMBULATORY BOYS WITH DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY (DMD)

The purpose of this low interventional study is to collect data on everyday movement in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) using wearable activity sensors. The activity sensors could provide useful information beyond what is currently collected by functional (movement, strength) assessments in clinic. This information can help with the understanding of the impact of DMD, and perhaps with how possible treatments can affect this impact.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Activity MonitorDevice

    Wrist and ankle sensors to be worn continuously for 2-week intervals.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single cohortThere is no randomization or stratification in this study. All subjects will complete the same study assessments.
Receives: Device: Activity Monitor

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mean change from baseline and variability of activity measures

    Measured: baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean change from baseline in functional assessment scores obtained in the clinic

    Measured: baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

  2. Comparison of mean changes from baseline and correlation coefficient between activity monitoring data and functional data obtained in clinic

    Measured: baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), run by Pfizer 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 4 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Oct 2021. 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 was stopped early (reason given: This low-interventional study (involving no study drug) has been terminated early due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and not for any safety or efficacy reasons.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Mean change from baseline and variability of activity measures (time frame: baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months). 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 15 Oct 2021.
