DYNE-251
for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
This trial tests DYNE-251, an IV drug, in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who can benefit from exon 51 skipping. The drug aims to help their muscles by increasing the dystrophin protein. It works by skipping a faulty part of their gene to produce more of this important protein. Eteplirsen (Exondys 51) was the first drug approved for exon 51 skipping in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
