Follow-up study for women who carry a DMD gene change
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study follows women who have a confirmed DMD gene mutation (a genetic change related to Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy) to learn more about health and muscle-related measurements. Depending on the part of the study, you may be asked to take part in MRI or other assessments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman who is at least 18 years old
- You have genetic test results showing you carry a DMD gene mutation
- For Part 1 only: you also joined this study about 6 years ago
- You can follow any study rules about stopping certain medicines if needed
- You can take part in the planned measurements, including MRI if you are eligible

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.
This study collects electronic health records (medical information already in your doctor's computer system) from people with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy, or female carriers of these conditions. Researchers will use this data to better understand the diseases and improve care over time.
This is a research study that follows people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy and female genetic carriers to better understand the condition. It may help researchers measure health patterns over time, which can support future treatments.
This study follows boys with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy to learn more about how the disease progresses over time. It may help improve future care and treatments.
This study looks at how Becker muscular dystrophy affects the brain and muscles using imaging, thinking tests, and muscle function checks. It aims to learn more about the condition to improve care.
This study examines how different genetic changes in the DMD gene affect heart function in boys with dystrophinopathy (a muscle-weakening condition). Understanding this connection may help doctors better monitor and treat heart problems in affected boys.
