Study of SRP-1001 in Adult and Adolescent Participants With Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Type 1

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of SRP-1001 in participants with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy Type 1 (FSHD1). In Part 1 of the study, participants will receive one dose of SRP-1001 or placebo. In Part 2 of the study, participants will receive 4 doses of SRP-1001 or placebo. Participants who complete Part 1 will have the option to re-screen and re-randomize into Part 2. All participants will undergo pre- and post-dose magnetic imaging resonance (MRI)-guided muscle biopsies (a total of 2 biopsies). Participants who complete Part 1 and enroll in Part 2 will be required to undergo an additional screening biopsy. Participants completing Part 1 or Part 2 may have the option to continue to receive drug in an open-label extension study or may be eligible to participate in later-stage clinical studies.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasound Comparison With Load Evaluation

Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most common hereditary neuromuscular disorders (NMD), with an estimated prevalence of 2000 patients in the Netherlands. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and muscle ultrasound have contributed to an enhanced understanding of the pathophysiology of Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD). Previously, our group demonstrated the potential presence of an intermediate factor between muscle fiber loss and clinical weakness in FSHD. The influence of disrupted muscle architecture in FSHD on muscle contractile efficiency is a likely candidate for this factor, and remains relatively unexplored. In this study, we aim to assess the use of ultrasound-defined contractile performance, in comparison with current measures including structural MRI, for monitoring disease progression in FSHD.

Disease Burden and Living Situation of Patients With Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

The goal of this observational study is to learn the patient journey, disease burden, living situation, quality of life and etc. in patients with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy in all sex/gender and age groups. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What's the patient journey of patients with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy? 2. How does Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy burden the patients? 3. How's the quality of life of patients with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy? Patients with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy will be asked to: 1. fill a questionnaire. 2. be interviewed and answer questions about their illness experience, economic burden, quality of life and etc. Medical experts on Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy will be asked to be interviewed and answer questions about understanding on the disease and the patients.
