NCT01753804

Brief Summary

To characterize the natural history and progression of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) to help inform the design of future studies, to capture biomarkers of safety and disease progression and to provide comparative data for the development of rare exons for which formal controlled trials are not feasible.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 6 minute walk distance

    Participants are asked to walk at their own preferred speed on a fixed distance for 6 minutes. Subjects are warned of the time and that they may stop earlier if they feel unable to continue. Total distance walked within 6 minutes (or until stopping) is recorded.

    Change from visit 1 walking distance

Study Arms (1)

Study participants

All participants will follow the same protocol, including muscle strength and function testing, and blood and urine collection, for a maximum of 7 visits over 3 years.

Other: Observational study

Interventions

There is no medication or device tested in this study. This is an obversational study on the progression of the disease.
