The Active NBS Liege study is a monocentric, academic, fully remote, observational study designed to validate digital measures of motor development in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) or Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) identified through newborn screening, family testing, or incidental diagnosis. The study will enroll 100 children and follow …
The objective of the ActiLiège Next study is to collect longitudinal data from patients and control subjects using a wearable magneto-inertial device. By collecting natural history data in various neuromuscular disorders (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Fascioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy, Myotonic Dystrophy 1, Charcot-Marie-Tooth, Centronuclear Myopathy, Congenital Muscular Dystrophy), we aim to validate …
Mutations in the LMNA gene, which codes for lamins A and C, proteins of the nuclear lamina, are responsible for a wide spectrum of pathologies, including a group specifically affecting striated skeletal and cardiac muscles, with cardiac involvement being life-threatening. At the skeletal muscle level, a wide phenotypic spectrum has …
Phase 2a trial of SAT-3247 in ambulatory DMD patients aged ≥ 7 and \< 10 years. The trial will study two doses of SAT-3247 in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled weekday regimen for 12 weeks to determine the optimal dose, safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy.
Since 2017, more than 250 analyses performed at the Molecular Genetics Laboratory of the Timone Enfant Hospital have yielded negative results in patients with rare genetic muscle diseases. The researchers hypothesise that some of these misdiagnosed patients carry pathogenic RNA (transcript) disrupting variants that were not identified by DNA sequencing. …
This is an open-label phase 2/3 study for individuals with Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy (Congenital DM1) who participated in the preceding AMO-02-MD-2-003 study or individuals with either Congenital or Childhood Onset DM1 who are treatment naïve.
This study is being done to further develop a device, the mScan, to measure muscle health as compared to measurements of muscle health using MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). This device is held against the skin and uses Electrical Impedance Myography (EIM). EIM uses a very small, noninvasive (e.g. no needles), …
Neuropathic pain is common in limb amputees and causes reductions in activity and participation as well as impaired quality of life. Some of these pains lead to the diagnosis of a responsible lesion and to precise and effective treatments (amputation neuroma pains, for example), whether they are etiological or symptomatic. …
An exercise regimen (PRIME: Proximal Resistance In-House Movement Exercise) has been designed for patients with myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2). The hypothesis is that this patient-friendly physical therapist (PT)-guided exercise program associates with improved functional capacity and muscle composition in DM2 in this two-period two-sequence cross-over study. Thus, participant will …
The overall goal of the study is to establish valid clinical endpoint assessments for children with congenital myotonic dystrophy type 1 and develop biomarkers for the condition.
