Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy clinical trials at University of California Health

5 in progress, 4 open to eligible people

  • A Study to Evaluate the Safety of LION-101 in Subjects With Genetic Confirmation of LGMD2I/R9 (Part1)

    open to eligible people ages 18-65

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous infusion of LION-101 in adults diagnosed with limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9). Participants will be treated in sequential, dose-level cohorts. (Part 1)

  • Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of BBP-418 (Ribitol) in Patients With Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2I (LGMD2I)

    open to eligible people ages 12-60

    This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term administration of BBP-418 in patients with LGMD2I/R9. The study will include patients ages 12 to 60, consistent with the existing preclinical toxicology profile. This will encompass the significant majority of existing diagnosed patients based upon the established epidemiology of the disease.

  • A Study of the Natural History of Patients ≥ 4 Years of Age with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy

    “Volunteer for research and contribute to discoveries that may improve health care for you, your family, and your community!”

    open to eligible people ages 4 years and up

    This study will follow participants who are screened and confirmed with a genetic diagnosis of Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E (LGMD2E/R4), Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D (LGMD2D/R3), or Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2C (LGMD2C/R5). These enrolled participants will be followed to evaluate mobility and pulmonary function for up to 3 years after enrollment. Additional participant data will be collected from the time the individual began experiencing LGMD symptoms to the present.

  • Defining Clinical Endpoints in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD)

    open to eligible people ages 4-65

    Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy comprise a group of disorders made up of over 30 mutations which share a common phenotype of progressive weakness of the shoulder and hip girdle muscles. While the individual genetic mutations are rare, as a cohort, LGMDs are one of the four most common muscular dystrophies. The overall goal of project 1 is to define the key phenotypes as measured by standard clinical outcome assessments (COAs) for limb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) to hasten therapeutic development.

  • Clinical Outcome Study for Dysferlinopathy

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The "Clinical Outcome Study for Dysferlinopathy" is being performed in centres in Europe (UK- Newcastle; Spain- Barcelona, Sevilla; San Sebastian;Denmark, Copenhagen, Italy- Padova; France- Paris,), USA (Charlotte, NC; Columbus, OH; St.Louis, MO, Stanford CA, Irvine CA and Columbia NY), Chile (Santiago) Japan (Tokyo) and South Korea (Pusan). Oversight is provided by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals Trust. Funding for this study is being provided by the Jain Foundation, a non-profit foundation dedicated to finding therapies for dysferlinopathies(LGMD2b/Miyoshi). The aim of this "Clinical Outcome Study" is to determine the clinical outcome measures required for future clinical trials, characterize the disease progression of dysferlinopathy and collect biological samples for the identification of disease markers that are needed to non-invasively monitor the disease during clinical trials. Without this information, effective clinical trials cannot be performed. This study is recruiting a large number of genetically confirmed dysferlinopathy patients aged 10 years or older, who are ambulant or non-ambulant. The study has reopened for a further two years (COS2). Participants will be assessed at 4 further visits over 2 years via medical, physiotherapy, and MRI/MRS assessments, as well as standard blood tests. Optionally, the participants can donate blood samples and a skin sample for use in the identification of disease markers and other approved research. There is a sub-study running in MRI at selected sites.
