by: Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy
On March 3, 2021, Drs. Taivassalo and Sweeney from the University of Florida joined us to discuss their new study to evaluate the potential of delaying disease progression and strengthening muscle function in patients with Duchenne by combining a low dose weekend steroid regimen with exercise training. This study is supported by PPMD and the Department of Defense Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Research Program (DMDRP).
