About this trial

The Duchenne Registry is an online, patient-report registry for individuals with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy and carrier females. The purpose of the Registry is to connect Duchenne and Becker patients with actively recruiting clinical trials and research studies, and to educate patients and families about Duchenne and Becker care and research. At the same time, The Duchenne Registry is a valuable resource for clinicians and researchers in academia and industry, allowing access to de-identified datasets provided by patients and their families-information that is vital to advances in the care and treatment of Duchenne. The Duchenne Registry is a member of the TREAT-NMD Neuromuscular Network.

Time frame
Registrants are requested to update their medical history every 6-12 months, and they will be followed throughout their lifetime.

Secondary outcomes

1

Ambulation status

Ambulation status is assessed from several questions about mobility, ability to sit and stand, use of assistive devices, and age at full time wheelchair use.

Time frame
Registrants are requested to update their medical history every 6-12 months, and they will be followed throughout their lifetime.
