Sponsored by Nationwide Children's Hospital · Observational
The objective of this study is to identify and maintain a registry of well-characterized limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) patients. Patients seen as part of this study may be candidates for future treatment trials based on their defined genetic classification of LGMD. In the course of this study, the investigators will perform a muscle biopsy and DNA testing in an unlimited number of patients with clinically diagnosed LGMD. The genetic testing will be extended to the family of the study subject in order to better understand true genetic defect.
548 studies on the registry are indexed under Muscular Dystrophies; 89 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 277 is above the median of 69 across 179 observational studies indexed under Muscular Dystrophies.
