Summary

This trial will investigate the impact of a single dose of SRP-9003 on beta-sarcoglycan gene expression in individuals with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E/R

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with a muscle condition called Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2E/R4. It's open to those who can move around on their own (Cohort 1) and those who cannot (Cohort 2). Specific eligibility details are not provided, but typically participants must meet certain health criteria.
What is being tested?
The study tests an experimental gene therapy named Bidridistrogene Xeboparvovec (SRP-9003), which aims to correct the genetic defect causing the disease. Participants will receive one dose of this therapy, and its effects on gene expression will be monitored.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't listed here, but gene therapies like SRP-9003 could cause immune reactions, swelling at the injection site, headache, fever or chills. The exact side effects would be explained by the research team.
