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 8 to 35 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Population expected to be enrolled will include almost 250 patients affected from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy with a confirmed genetic diagnosis and that have lost the ability to walk indipendently for more than 10 meters.

Who may be able to join

  • Children with genetically confirmed diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy will be included in the study. We will include all Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy boys who have lost the ability to walk independently.
  • All patients in whom consent can be obtained will be enrolled with no exclusion criteria.

Who cannot join

  • Patients lacking genetic confirmation of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
  • Patients still able to walk for more than 10 meters.

About this study

Official title: Characterizing Phenothypes in Non Ambulant Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

The aims of the study are to prospectively collect information on several aspects of function in non-ambulant DMD patients by using a structured battery of tests including motor, respiratory and cardiac function

Read the detailed description

The aims of the study are to prospectively collect information on several aspects of function in non-ambulant DMD patients by using a structured battery of tests including motor, respiratory and cardiac function, to retrospectively review similar information on the data collected in the last decade and to establish the effect of steroids after loss of ambulation on different aspects of function.

We also aim to use this integrated approach to identify patterns of severity and progression, the most appropriate outcome measures and endpoints in each group and possible genotype/phenotype correlations.

What participants receive

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

  • Different Phenotypes of non ambulant patients with Duchenne Muscular DystrophyOther

    clinical and functional data collection of non ambulant patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

What is being measured

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

  1. motor function

    assessment of Upper Limb Motor function in all the patient at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months

    Measured: 24 months

  2. respiratory function

    Assessment of respiratory function, in particular Forced Vital Capacity at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months in all the patients able to perform the test. Registration of need for ventilation and hours of ventilation needed at each assessment

    Measured: 24 months

  3. cardiac function

    Assessment of ejection fraction through cardiac ultrasound at baseline and changes at follow up assessment at 6, 12 and 24 months

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. identify patterns of severity and of progression related to differnt genotypes

    evaluation correlation genotype/phenotype

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and Natural History, run by Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS at 2 sites in Italy.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Marika Pane, Prof (00390630156742, marika.pane@policlinicogemelli.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

motor function (time frame: 24 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Oct 2024.
