  • SGT-003 Gene Therapy in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (INSPIRE DUCHENNE)

    open to eligible males ages 4-7

    This is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single IV infusion of SGT-003 in participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. There will be 2 cohorts in this study, dosed sequentially. Cohort 1 will include participants 4 to <6 years of age, inclusive. Cohort 2 will only be opened after dosing and monitoring a subset of participants in Cohort 1. Cohort 2 will include participants 6 to <8 years of age, inclusive. All participants will receive SGT-003 and will be enrolled in the study for 5 total years for long-term follow up.

  • Oral Ifetroban in Subjects With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    open to eligible males ages 7 years and up

    Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating X-linked disease which leads to loss of ambulation between ages 7 and 13, respiratory failure and cardiomyopathy (CM) at any age, and inevitably premature death of affected young men in their late twenties. DMD is the most common fatal genetic disorder diagnosed in childhood. It affects approximately 1 in every 3,500 live male births across all races and cultures, and results in 20,000 new cases each year worldwide.Significant advances in respiratory care have unmasked CM as the leading cause of death. As there are yet no specific cardiac treatments to extend life, the current study aims to address this unmet medical need using a new therapeutic strategy for patients with DMD.

  • Pharmacodynamic, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetic Study of DYNE-251 in Participants With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Amenable to Exon 51 Skipping

    open to eligible males ages 4-16

    The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and dystrophin protein levels in muscle tissue following multiple intravenous (IV) doses of DYNE-251 in participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) amenable to exon 51 skipping. The study consists of 3 periods: a multiple-ascending dose (MAD) / placebo-controlled period (24 weeks), an open-label period (24 weeks) and a long-term extension period (96 weeks).

  • Understand the Long-term Safety and Effects of an Experimental Gene Therapy for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

    open to eligible males ages 0 years and up

    The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effects of an experimental gene therapy called fordadistrogene movaparvovec. We are seeking participants from previous Pfizer interventional studies. We will follow participants' experience in this study for 10 years after the end of their previous study. Participants will have 1 annual onsite visit and a few annual remote visits. The exact number of remote visits will be decided by their study doctor.

  • EDG-5506 in Children and Adolescents With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Previously Treated With Gene Therapy (FOX)

    open to eligible males ages 6-14

    The FOX study is a 2-part, multicenter, Phase 2 study of safety, pharmacokinetics, and biomarkers in children and adolescents with Duchenne muscular dystrophy previously treated with gene therapy including a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Part A, followed by an open-label part B.

  • Participants Who Received Delandistrogene Moxeparvovec (SRP-9001) in a Previous Clinical Study

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    The purpose of this study is to provide a single clinical study with a uniform approach to monitoring long-term safety and efficacy in participants who received delandistrogene moxeparvovec in a previous clinical study. No study drug will be administered as part of this study. Pre-infusion baseline will be defined as the timepoint just prior to infusion of delandistrogene moxeparvovec from a previous clinical study. Each participant will be followed for a minimum of 5 years post-infusion of delandistrogene moxeparvovec from a previous clinical study. The duration of participation in this study is dependent on the length of follow-up the participant completed post-infusion of delandistrogene moxeparvovec from a previous clinical study.

  • Gene Transfer Therapy Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Delandistrogene Moxeparvovec (SRP-9001) in Participants With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of gene transfer therapy in boys with DMD. It is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The participants who are randomized to the placebo arm will have an opportunity for treatment with gene transfer therapy at the beginning of the second year.

  • PF-06939926 Gene Therapy in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This is a first-in-human/first-in-patient, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized, ascending dose, safety and tolerability study of a single intravenous infusion of PF-06939926 in ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Other objectives include measurement of dystrophin expression and distribution, and assessments of muscle strength, quality, and function. A total of approximately 22 subjects will receive PF-06939926, and these will include both ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects. Up to 13 subjects may be included in a cohort that includes the concomitant medication, sirolimus. In order to mitigate unanticipated risks to subject safety, enrollment will be staggered within and between two planned dose-levels and will include a formal review by an external data monitoring committee (E-DMC) prior to dose progression.

  • Microdystrophin Gene Transfer Study in Adolescents and Children With DMD

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This is a controlled, open-label, single-ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of SGT-001 in adolescents and children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Patients will receive a single intravenous (IV) infusion of SGT-001 and will be followed for approximately 5 years. The protocol was amended to drop the control arm after 4 subjects were dosed. Subjects currently enrolling are assigned to active treatment. Control subjects enrolled under original protocol will continue through the study per the original protocol.

  • Ataluren in Previously Treated Participants With Nonsense Mutation Dystrophinopathy (nmDBMD)

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    The objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of 10, 10, 20 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) ataluren in participants with nmDBMD who had prior exposure to ataluren in a PTC sponsored clinical trial or treatment plan, and siblings of those participants (provided those participants have completed the placebo-controlled portion of the trial). The treatment will continue under this protocol until consent withdrawal by participants, withdrawal due to worsen condition after initiating ataluren treatment, withdrawal by investigator, withdrawal due to participant unable to tolerate ataluren, participant is eligible to participate in another ataluren nmDBMD clinical trial program initiated by sponsor, study is discontinued by the relevant regulatory authority and/or sponsor, or until ataluren becomes commercially available.
