Summary

This trialwill study gene therapy to help boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) with safety and muscle strength. No randomization, open to all.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for boys with a confirmed diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) who haven't had gene therapy before. They must have normal blood counts and liver/kidney function, no specific genetic mutations in the dystrophin gene, and no recent treatments aimed at increasing dystrophin expression.
What is being tested?
The study tests Fordadistrogene Movaparvovec (PF-06939926), a gene therapy for DMD. It's an open-label study where all participants receive the treatment to assess safety and how well it promotes dystrophin production.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune reactions to the therapy vector AAV9, changes in liver enzymes indicating liver stress, possible allergic responses, or other unforeseen issues related to gene therapy.
