Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Male aged 6 to 15 years, inclusive. 2. For treated patients (all patients in Part 1 and 12 additional treated patients in Part 2), established clinical diagnosis of DMD with a mutation amenable to exon 53 skipping (e.g. deletions of exons such as 42-52, 45-52, 47-52, 48-52, 49-52, 50-52, 52, or 54-58) as documented by a genetic report from an accredited laboratory confirming deletion endpoints by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) or sequencing. 3. For Part 2 untreated control patients, established clinical diagnosis of DMD with confirmed genomic deletion of exon(s) not amenable to exon 53 skipping as documented by an accredited laboratory and genomic methodology. 4. Have intact right and left biceps muscles or an alternative upper arm muscle group. 5. Have stable cardiac and pulmonary function that, in the Investigator’s opinion, is unlikely to decompensate over the duration of the study. 6. Achieve a mean 6MWT distance of =250 meters at both the Screening and Baseline visits (prior to Week 1). The mean 6MWT distance at the Screening and Baseline visits is the average of 2 separate assessments on 2 consecutive days at each visit. The Baseline mean (average of Baseline Day 1 and 2) must be within 15% of the Screening mean (average of Screening Day 1 and 2). (Personal assistance or use of any assistive devices for ambulation is not permitted during the 6MWT). 7. Patients must meet at least one of the following two criteria: • NSAA (North Star Ambulatory Assessment) total score >17; or • Rise (Gowers') time =65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Use of any pharmacologic treatment, other than corticosteroids, that might have an effect on muscle strength or function within 12 weeks prior to study entry (e.g., growth hormone, anabolic steroids). 2. Previous treatment with the experimental agents BMN-195 (SMT C1100) or PRO053. 3. Current or previous treatment with any other experimental treatments within 12 weeks prior to study entry. Untreated patients only can be enrolled concurrently in other non-interventional trials, or in interventional trials in which participants are known to be treated with standard-of-care medication, provided they do not interfere with study assessments performed in Study 4053-101, and the patient meets all the protocol-required entry criteria. 4. A left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 450 msec. 5. A forced vital capacity (FVC) 10 degrees plantar flexion from plantigrade assuming normal range of dorsiflexion of 20 degrees). 10. Change in contracture treatment such as serial casting, contracture control devices, night splints, stretching exercises (passive, active, self) within 3 months prior to enrollment, or expected need for such intervention during the study. 11. Prior or ongoing medical condition that, in the Investigator’s opinion, could interfere with the patient’s participation in the study.
