Active clinical trials for "Muscular Dystrophies"

This study, HALO-DMD-03, is a follow-on study to HALO-DMD-01 and HALO-DMD-02, and allows continued open-label access to HT-100 for subjects who have completed these studies. HALO-DMD-03 will provide safety and strength and function data on continuous long-term dosing. Data from this study will be used to inform the safety, tolerability, and dose selection for a future trial of HT-100 in boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).

This study is designed to provide 6-months continuous dosing with the study medication, called HT-100, on participants who successfully completed the predecessor study (HALO-DMD-01). The main purpose of this study is to assess chronic safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic activity (testing the drug's effect on DMD) and population pharmacokinetics (measuring how much drug is in the bloodstream) in participants with a broad spectrum of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

The primary objective of this study is to obtain long term safety data of ataluren in male participants with nonsense mutation dystrophinopathy (who participated and completed a previous Phase 3 study of ataluren [PTC124-GD-020-DMD {NCT01826487}]) to augment the overall safety database. Screening and baseline procedures are structured to avoid a gap in treatment between the double-blind study (PTC124-GD-020-DMD) and this extension study. This study may be further extended by amendment until either ataluren becomes commercially available or the clinical development of ataluren in duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is discontinued.

This is a phase III, multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled extension study in male subjects with DMD open to eligible US and Canadian subjects who previously participated in the following studies of drisapersen: DMD114876, DMD114044 and DMD114349. Subjects will receive 6mg/kg subcutaneous drisapersen on a weekly basis. For subjects who have previously experienced significant safety or tolerability issues or who experience these during the study, there is the potential of an alternate intermittent dosing arm that will be given as a regimen of 6 mg/kg weekly for 8 weeks followed by 4 weeks off treatment. For subjects who experience or have previously experienced significant safety/tolerability issues, side effects or reactions or intermittent dosing, intravenous dosing will be made available.

The main purpose of this study is to determine if tadalafil can slow the decline in walking ability of boys who have Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The study will also assess the safety of tadalafil and any side effects that might be associated with it in boys who have DMD. Participants will receive study treatment (tadalafil or placebo) for the first 48 weeks of the study, and can then continue into an open label extension (OLE) that consists of two periods during which all participants will receive tadalafil. In OLE period 1, all participants will receive tadalafil for 48 weeks. Participants completing OLE period 1 will continue into OLE period 2 and will receive tadalafil for at least another 48 weeks.

This is a randomized, open-label, pilot clinical trial of spironolactone suspension versus oral prednisolone for use in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The goals are to determine the safety of 6 months of treatment with spironolactone treatment int he steroid-naive DMD population as well as to determine if either spironolactone or a standard clinical dose of corticosteroids results in equivalent improvement in time to complete the 100 meter timed test (100M).

The GalaxyDMD study is a global Phase 3, open-label, treatment extension study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and durability of effect in long-term dosing of edasalonexent in pediatric patients with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of DMD. Patients who completed CAT-1004-201 or CAT-1004-301 or siblings of these boys from 4-12 years of age (up to 13th birthday) will be enrolled. Edasalonexent is an orally administered small molecule that inhibits NF-kB, which is a key link between loss of dystrophin and disease pathology and plays a fundamental role in the initiation and progression of skeletal and cardiac muscle disease in DMD.

This is a Phase 2/3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with an open-label extension period to evaluate the safety and efficacy of WVE-210201 (suvodirsen) in ambulatory male pediatric patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) amenable to exon 51 skipping intervention (DYSTANCE 51)

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of idebenone in delaying the loss of respiratory function in patients with DMD receiving concomitant glucocorticoid steroids

To Assess the Activity and Safety of SMT C1100 (Ezutromid) in Paediatric Male Participants with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).
