Trial summary

The aim of the study was to compare the severity of illness between groups of patients (Facio-Scapulo-Humeral Dystrophy = FHSD1, FSHD2 and patients both FSHD1 and FSHD2). Despite advances in research on the subject, answers are still needed on these diseases. Read more about this study

About this study

The aim of the study was to compare the severity of illness between groups of patients (Facio-Scapulo-Humeral Dystrophy = FHSD1, FSHD2 and patients both FSHD1 and FSHD2).

We also aim to determine whether the chromosomal genetic abnormality is involved in other diseases and the frequency of this mutation in the population of patients FSHD.

This study will increase our knowledge of the two forms of FSHD who present a common pathophysiological mechanism and may occur together in the same family with a worsening of the clinical phenotype worsening . In addition, epigenetic differences between FSHD type 1 and type 2 seems to have clinical consequences requiring appropriate management

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood test in people with Muscular Dystrophy, Facioscapulohumeral, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Muscle damage measure (time frame: One time at the inclusion). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01970735, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
