Identify the genetic mutation<\/span><\/h2>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Different genetic tests can provide specific and detailed information about changes in your child\u2019s DNA \u2013 known as mutations \u2013 that cause DMD. Identifying the exact mutation is essential for determining future treatment.<\/p>\n

Your doctor can order a genetic test to detect specific genetic mutations. Hospitals usually provide genetic testing. Otherwise, you can turn to Decode Duchenne.<\/strong> 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.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”

Which treatment and clinical research targets your genetic mutation?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Look often for open clinical trials of new treatments for DMD. You may have an opportunity to try something new, something that might make your life better.<\/p>\n
