Phase 2 Study of EDG-5506 in Becker Muscular Dystrophy (GRAND CANYON)

Study on EDG-5506 for Becker Muscular Dystrophy underway.

Recruiting
12-50 years
Male
Phase 2

Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD) is a disease that makes muscles weak over time. This study looks at a medicine called Sevasemten (EDG-5506) to see if it helps people with BMD. It is called the GRAND CANYON study. People who join are randomly given either the medicine or a fake medicine (placebo) without knowing which one they get. This helps doctors understand if the medicine really works.

Key Points:

  • The study lasts for about 18 months, with visits to the study center.
  • Adults aged 18-50 with certain muscle conditions can join.
  • Participants will be checked for safety and how well the medicine works.

To join, you must be able to walk and do some muscle tests. You can't join if you have certain heart problems or took some specific drugs recently. If you decide to join, doctors will follow your health closely. This study could help find new treatments for people with Becker Muscular Dystrophy.
