A Multicenter Randomized Placebo-Controlled Double-Blind Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Glutamine and Creatine Monohydrate in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)

Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Muscular Dystrophy, Duchenne

In brief

To establish a collaborative group of clinical trial centers, with standardized equipment and protocols, able to conduct both drug and gene therapy trials in DMD. To evaluate the therapeutic effect of glutamine and creatine monohydrate on muscle strength in children with DMD. To validate the use of QMT (quantitative muscle strength testing) and gait analysis in children with DMD as reliable tools to quantify muscle strength, monitor disease progression and assess therapeutic response.
