NCT02432885

Brief Summary

This trial intends to evaluate myocardial Fibrosis progression in Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy, as well the influence of ACE inhibitors in fibrosis progression. Additionally, this study aims to determine genetic predictors of cardiac involvement in these dystrophies.
