This is a natural history study. This study will recruit DMD patients who are treatable with AAV-mediated exon 53 skipping.

Objectives

  • to monitor the clinical and radiological course of arm muscles impairment in those patients
  • to assess serum and urine biomarkers to monitor non-invasively disease progression
  • and to assess prevalence of immunity against adenoviral vectors in these patients
