DMD Voice: Interviews with patients and caregivers
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study invites people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and their caregivers to share their experiences through interviews. It focuses on those who have been taking the medication Givinostat for at least two years, or caregivers of patients with limited arm movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patient age 10 or older, or a caregiver of someone with DMD.
- If you are a patient, you must have been taking Givinostat for at least 2 years and still be taking it now.
- If you are a caregiver, you must be a parent or legal guardian of a DMD patient who has been on Givinostat for 2+ years, or care for a DMD patient who cannot lift their hands above their head.
- You must be willing to take part in a video or audio recorded interview.
- Caregivers in the second group must live in the U.S. or Canada, speak English, and have a stable internet connection.

This study uses remote technology, like apps or wearable devices, to monitor motor skills and development in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). It aims to find better ways to measure how the disease progresses over time without requiring frequent clinic visits.
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 study remotely tracks motor development in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy or spinal muscular atrophy who were diagnosed at birth or before symptoms started. It aims to see if early monitoring helps improve long-term care and outcomes.
This study collects information from patients with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy to learn more about the conditions and improve care. You will share data through a telemedicine platform, and you need a smartphone or tablet to take part.
This study tracks development and health in young boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy during the first three years of life. It aims to better understand early signs and how the condition progresses, which may help improve care and future treatments.
This study tests a wrist-worn sensor (Syde) to track arm and hand movement in boys with Duchenne who cannot walk. The goal is to see if the sensor can help doctors monitor changes in arm function over time, which may help guide future care.
