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