Identify the genetic mutation

Experimental therapies for DMD treat different genetic mutations. It is, therefore, essential to know your specific genetic profile to determine which treatments or clinical trials are appropriate for you.

Different genetic tests can provide specific and detailed information about changes in your child’s DNA – known as mutations – that cause DMD. Identifying the exact mutation is essential for determining future treatment.

Your doctor can order a genetic test to detect specific genetic mutations. Hospitals usually provide genetic testing. Otherwise, you can turn to Decode Duchenne. It offers free testing and counselling for people with DMD or Becker muscular dystrophy. It may take several weeks or months to get the results.
