Observational study of myotonic dystrophy type 1
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study follows people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 over time to learn more about the condition. It is for people of any age who have genetic confirmation of DM1, whether or not they have symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a genetic test result that confirms you have myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1).
- You can have symptoms or not — either is fine.
- You cannot have another muscle disease, like limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
- You should not have a serious health problem like heart, liver, or kidney disease or a major mental illness.
- You must be willing to join the study.

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.
This study tests whether remote assessments can track myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and looks at genetic factors. It aims to find better ways to monitor the disease from home.
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.
This study follows people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) over time to learn more about how the disease progresses. It collects health information and samples to help improve care.
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.
This study collects blood and, for some people, muscle tissue to look for signs (biomarkers) that can help track and better understand myotonic dystrophy. You may help by providing samples and basic muscle function testing, depending on your age and condition type.
