Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Confirmed diagnosis of DM1, as defined as having a repeat sequence in the DMPK gene with at least 100 CTG repeats
- Presence of myotonia
- Have sufficient muscle mass in bilateral tibialis anterior (TA) muscles that a needle biopsy can safely be performed
- Body Mass Index (BMI) of \< 35.0 kg/m\^2
You may not qualify if:
- Congenital DM1
- Known history or presence of any clinically significant conditions that may interfere with study safety assessments
- Abnormal laboratory tests at screening considered clinically significant by the Investigator
- Medications specific for the treatment of myotonia within 2 weeks prior to screening
- Percent predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) \<40%
- Use of an investigational drug, device, or product within 30 days of 5 half-lives of the study drug (whichever is longer) prior to Screening
