Myotonic Dystrophy and Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Registry
Myotonic dystrophy (DM) and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are inherited disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and loss of muscle tissue. The purpose of this registry is to connect people with DM or FSHD with researchers studying these diseases. The registry will offer individuals with DM and FSHD an opportunity …
Long-Term Development of Muscular Dystrophy Outcome Assessments
This is a 24-month, observational study of up to 1000 participants with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD), Myotonic Dystrophy Type 2 (DM2), and late onset Pompe disease (LOPD).
Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Biomarkers for Muscular Dystrophy
The purpose of this research study is to determine the potential of magnetic resonance imaging, spectroscopy, and whole body imaging to monitor disease progression and to serve as an objective outcome measure for clinical trials in Muscular Dystrophy (MD). The investigators will compare the muscles of ambulatory or non-ambulatory boys/men …
A Registered Cohort Study on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Dystrophinopathy is a term of X-linked recessive genetic disease, including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Becker Muscular Dystrophy, and the X-linked dilated cardiomyopathy. The aim of this study is to determine the clinical spectrum and natural progression of dystrophinopathy in a prospective multicenter natural history study, to assess the clinical, genetic of …
The United Kingdom Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Patient Registry
Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy (FSHD) is the third most common form of neuromuscular dystrophy worldwide with an estimated prevalence of one in 20,000. FSHD is an autosomal dominant genetic disease and is estimated to affect up to 3,000 people in the UK. The patient registry facilitates a questionnaire based research study to …
CureDuchenne Link®: A Resource for Research
CureDuchenne link is a data hub comprised of integrated biospecimens, clinical data, and self- and/or caregiver-reported information from participants. Anyone over 4 weeks old who has been diagnosed with DMD or BMD or who is a carrier of DMD or BMD can join. Parents or legal guardians can sign up …
The Duchenne Registry
The Duchenne Registry is an online, patient-report registry for individuals with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy and carrier females. The purpose of the Registry is to connect Duchenne and Becker patients with actively recruiting clinical trials and research studies, and to educate patients and families about Duchenne and Becker care …
Clinical Trial Readiness to Solve Barriers to Drug Development in FSHD
The primary cause of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a common adult-onset dystrophy, was recently discovered identifying targets for therapy. As multiple drug companies pursue treatments for FSHD, there is an urgent need to define the clinical trial strategies which will hasten drug development, including creating disease-relevant outcome measures and optimizing …
Molecular Analysis of Patients With Neuromuscular Disease
The purpose of this study is to identify new genes responsible for neuromuscular disorders and study muscle tissue of patient with known neuromuscular disease, as well as their family members. We are interested in recruiting many types of neuromuscular disease including; Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), and …
Global FKRP Registry
Mutations in the Fukutin Related Protein (FKRP) gene cause the condition Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type R9 (LGMDR9) also known as LGMD2I, and the rarer conditions Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (MDC1C), Muscle Eye Brain Disease (MEB) and Walker-Warburg Syndrome (WWS). LGMDR9 is the most common FKRP-related condition, and is especially prevalent …
