Testing an oxygen sensor during exercise in muscle disease
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This early (Phase 1) study checks whether a tiny oxygen-sensing device works reliably while people with mitochondrial muscle disease (and some healthy volunteers) ride a stationary bike. The goal is to see if the sensor can measure oxygen use during exercise and help future monitoring or research.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a tiny sensor that measures oxygen levels in muscle. It will help researchers understand how oxygen is used during exercise. If you have mitochondrial myopathy or are a healthy volunteer, you might be able to join.
This Phase 1 study tests a special MRI approach (using a contrast agent) to better measure changes in muscles in people with mitochondrial diseases. It also includes some healthy volunteers and other critically ill patients to compare results and check safety.
This study uses an MRI scan of the lower leg to look for signs of muscle problems in people with suspected or confirmed mitochondrial disease, and compares them with healthy volunteers. Participants will lie still in the MRI and do a short, mild exercise during the scan to help the researchers see how muscles work.
This study tests whether personalized home exercise plus video check-ins are safe and helpful for people with mitochondrial myopathy. It aims to improve function and comfort while checking that the program is tolerable over time.
This study tests whether exercise training can improve muscle function in adults with mitochondrial myopathy, a condition that affects how muscles produce energy. Participants will follow an exercise program to see if it helps their muscle strength and daily activities.
This study looks for the cause of suspected mitochondrial diseases by combining multiple lab tests on muscle and skin samples, plus genetic testing results. If your current gene tests didn’t find an answer, this could help researchers learn what might be causing your condition.
