Study of Zeleciment Rostudirsen DYNE-251 Given Intravenously Every 4 Weeks in Boys Ages 4 to 18 With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Amenable to Exon 51 Skipping

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of zeleciment rostudirsen DYNE-251, given intravenously every 4 weeks, in ambulatory male children and adolescents aged 4 to 18 years with Duchenne muscular dystrophy DMD who have a specific mutation suitable for exon 51 skipping. This Phase 3 study aims to provide important information about this treatment option for this group of patients with DMD. The study includes three distinct periods a Screening period lasting up to 6 weeks, a Placebo-Controlled Period of 72 weeks where participants are randomly assigned to receive either zeleciment rostudirsen or placebo every 4 weeks, and an open-label Long-Term Extension Period of up to 96 weeks during which all participants receive the study drug every 4 weeks. This design allows researchers to compare the treatment to placebo and then assess longer-term effects. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study with regular assessments including the primary outcome of Rise From Floor RFF velocity measured at baseline and Week 73. Various secondary measures such as walking speed, stair climbing ability, lung function, patient global impressions, blood creatine kinase levels, and safety through adverse event monitoring and blood drug levels will be collected up to Week 169 or study completion. The total study duration including the extension is up to approximately 168 weeks. This thorough evaluation helps understand the treatments impact and safety over time.
