Recruiting studies in Virginia
- NCT07160634RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy for ambulant males with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This trial tests a new gene therapy called SGT-003 in boys and men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who are still able to walk. The treatment aims to deliver a working version of the dystrophin gene to help muscle cells produce the protein they are missing.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 7–11 - NCT06564974Recruiting
Long-term safety study of Agamree for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This study watches boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who are already taking Agamree (vamorolone) to see how safe it is over a long period. It helps doctors understand the medicine's effects over time.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 2 years+ - NCT03373968RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Long-term study of givinostat safety in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This trial looks at how safely givinostat works over a longer time in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It mainly checks long-term side effects and tolerability, especially in a specific subgroup of muscle fat levels.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 7 years+ - NCT04626674RecruitingPhase 1
Gene therapy safety study for non-ambulatory Duchenne
This Phase 1 trial studies a one-time gene therapy treatment (SRP-9001) to see if it is safe and whether it can produce the needed gene activity in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who are not walking. It may help researchers understand whether this approach could be useful for DMD patients, especially in later stages.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 2 years+ - NCT05996003RecruitingPhase 2
Exon 44 skipping drug for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This trial tests a new drug (NS-089/NCNP-02) that aims to help boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy produce a shorter but still working version of the dystrophin protein. It's for boys who are still walking and have a specific genetic type that can be fixed by skipping a part of the gene called exon 44.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 4–14 - NCT06138639RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy SGT-003 for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This trial tests a new gene therapy called SGT-003 for children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It aims to help the body produce a working version of dystrophin, the protein missing in Duchenne.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges birth–17 years - NCT06817382RecruitingPhase 1
Gene therapy for young boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This study tests a one-time gene therapy given by injection into the spinal fluid (intrathecal) for boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and how it spreads in the body, and may offer a new way to slow the disease.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 2–4 - NCT07674758Recruiting
Understanding heart risk in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy
This study looks at heart health in people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy to find better ways to predict and track heart problems. The goal is to improve future treatment trials.
Richmond, VirginiaAges Any age - NCT06270719Enrolling by invitation
Comparing ELEVIDYS to standard care for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This study compares the gene therapy ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec) to usual treatments for people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It helps researchers understand how well ELEVIDYS works over time in real-world settings.
Norfolk, VirginiaAges 4 years+ - NCT06606340Enrolling by invitation
Long-term study of eteplirsen, golodirsen, or casimersen for DMD
This study follows people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who are taking eteplirsen, golodirsen, or casimersen. It aims to understand how these medicines work in everyday life over a long period.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges Any age - NCT06491927Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for RGX-202 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
This long-term follow-up study watches people who previously received the experimental gene therapy RGX-202 for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It checks how patients are doing over time and does not involve any new treatment.
Richmond, VirginiaAges Any age - NCT05967351Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term follow-up for Duchenne patients treated before
This study checks how people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy are doing long-term after receiving delandistrogene moxeparvovec (SRP-9001) in an earlier trial. It helps researchers understand the long-term safety and effects of that treatment.

What taking part in a duchenne 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.

Common questions
- Are there duchenne muscular dystrophy clinical trials in Virginia?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 12 recruiting duchenne muscular dystrophy 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 duchenne muscular dystrophy 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 duchenne muscular dystrophy 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.
