ABSTRACT Aims We report 5‐year results from a phase 1/2a study of delandistrogene moxeparvovec, a recombinant adeno‐associated virus serotype rh74 vector‐based gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), with post hoc analyses contextualizing functional outcomes. Methods Four ambulatory patients with DMD (≥ 4–< 8 years at enrollment) entered an

Walsh & Hoyt: Congenital Muscular Dystrophies
A number of patients have dystrophic muscle pathology associated with symptoms that are present at birth and a variable clinical course. These patients are said to have congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD). CMD is by no means rare. Rospide et al. believed

Unraveling the spatial landscape of dystrophinopathies: a transcriptomic approach to Becker and Duchenne muscular dystrophies. [PDF]
Abstract Dystrophinopathies are caused by pathogenic variants in the DMD gene, resulting in partial (Becker) or complete loss (Duchenne) of dystrophin. Becker (BMD) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) are characterized by progressive muscle wasting, fatty replacement, fibrosis, and loss of function.

The Muscular Dystrophies: From Genes to Therapies
The genetic basis of many muscular disorders, including many of the more common muscular dystrophies, is now known. Clinically, the recent genetic advances have improved diagnostic capabilities, but they have not yet provided clues about treatment or ...

Quantitative MRI Assessment of Myotoxin‐Induced Skeletal Muscle Damage of mdx Mice
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been extensively applied in dystrophic muscle, longitudinal characterization of multiple quantitative MRI parameters during degeneration and regeneration remains limited. This study aimed to longitudinally characterize changes in quantitative MRI parameters in control and ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The patient experience of Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is not well understood, making it difficult to evaluate the conceptual relevance of proposed patient‐reported outcome (PRO) measures. This study aimed to conceptualize the patient experience of BMD and evaluate content validity and perceptions of meaningful changes of ...
