Recruiting studies in Virginia
- NCT07700225Recruiting
Long-term study of myotonic dystrophy type 1
This study is a long-term follow-up for people with myotonic dystrophy type 1. It aims to find better ways to measure how the disease progresses, which could help develop future treatments.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–70 - NCT07486934RecruitingPhase 3
Study of DYNE-101 for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1
This trial tests an experimental drug called DYNE-101 to see if it can help people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The study aims to improve muscle function and daily life. It is for adults who can walk and stand up from a chair without help.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 16 years+ - NCT07008469Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term safety study of del-desiran for DM1
This study tests whether the drug del-desiran continues to be safe and effective for people with DM1 (myotonic dystrophy type 1) after they complete an earlier study. You'll receive the drug and have regular check-ups to see how you're doing.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 16 years+ - NCT03981575Recruiting
Biomarker and health marker study in myotonic dystrophy type 1
This study measures physical and lab “health markers” in people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) to better understand how the disease changes over time. Some participants may also have a muscle biopsy to study tissue differences.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–70 - NCT06185764RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
VX-670 for adults with myotonic dystrophy type 1
This trial tests an experimental drug called VX-670 for adults with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), a genetic muscle disease. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help improve symptoms.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–64 - NCT06926621Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Long-term safety and effectiveness of VX-670 for myotonic dystrophy
This study is for people who already received VX-670 in a previous trial and want to continue treatment. It will check the drug's long-term safety and how well it works for myotonic dystrophy type 1.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05224778Recruiting
Study for young children with neonatal myotonic dystrophy type 1
This study looks at measurements and child-focused outcomes in babies and toddlers with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) that started in the newborn period. It may help researchers better track how the condition affects children and evaluate care plans more accurately.
Richmond, VirginiaAges Up to 4.9 years - NCT05288777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing follow-up chemo and radiation for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies a standard follow-up treatment plan that combines chemotherapy and radiation after surgery, and it looks for blood/tissue “biomarkers” that predict who benefits most. If you have high-risk breast cancer that didn’t fully disappear after initial (neoadjuvant) chemo, you may be eligible to help guide better future treatment choices.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05481879RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study medicine for DM1 to improve muscle function
This early-stage study tests DYNE-101 to see how safe it is and whether it can improve measurable muscle function in people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). You may be asked to do several walking and strength tests and undergo heart and breathing screening measurements.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–65 - NCT06300307RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ATX-01 for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1
This trial tests an experimental drug called ATX-01 for people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), a condition that causes muscle weakness and stiffness. The study aims to see if ATX-01 can help reduce symptoms like muscle stiffness (myotonia) and improve daily function.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–64 - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).

What taking part in a dm1 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.

Common questions
- Are there dm1 clinical trials in Virginia?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 11 recruiting dm1 studies with a site in Virginia, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a dm1 study in Virginia?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Virginia to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Virginia, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a dm1 trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
