Study samples for biomarkers in myotonic dystrophy
This study collects blood and, for some people, muscle tissue to look for signs (biomarkers) that can help track and better understand myotonic dystrophy. You may help by providing samples and basic muscle function testing, depending on your age and condition type.

Urine titin test for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This study measures a protein called titin in urine to see if it can help track muscle damage in boys with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy. It also includes healthy boys for comparison.

MRI and body biomarkers study for muscular dystrophy
This study uses MRI scans and blood or other biomarkers to better understand muscular dystrophy in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). It may help researchers track disease changes and identify measurable markers over time.

Long-term sevasemten study for Becker muscular dystrophy
This trial offers continued treatment with sevasemten (EDG-5506) for people with Becker muscular dystrophy who already completed a previous study of this drug. It tests the long-term safety and effects of taking sevasemten over more time.

What taking part in a becker muscular dystrophy study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
