Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Ambulatory boys age 6 to 0.2 mg/kg) in dosage or dose regimen (not related to body weight change) for at least 3 months immediately prior to signing the informed consent and a reasonable expectation that dosage and dosing regimen will not change significantly for the duration of the study. 6. Adequate hepatic and renal function on screening laboratory assessments: •GGT =upper limit of normal (ULN). •Alkaline phosphatase =ULN. •Total Bilirubin =ULN. •Serum Albumin=LLN. •Serum creatinine =ULN. 7. No underlying disposition for iron accumulation on screening laboratory assessments: •Serum Iron=1.2 x ULN. •Serum Ferritin =140 ng/mL. •% Transferrin Saturation =50%. 8. No underlying disposition for bleeding disorder on screening laboratory assessments: •PT/INR =1.25 x ULN. •aPTT =1.25x ULN. •Fecal occult blood is negative. If the fecal occult blood is positive due to known pre-exiting medical condition (eg, any cause of rectal bleeding; hemorrhoids, anal fissure) that is not considered to be clinically significant by the investigator, the subject may be included. 9. Iron content estimate on the screening liver MRI is within the normal range as determined by R2* value (R2*=75 Hz at 1.5 T or R2*=139 Hz at 3.0 T). *Note: The 4 stair climb is expressed as a velocity in the inclusion criteria rather than a time in seconds in an attempt to reduce the risk of subjects purposefully manipulating their performance at screening in order to enroll. To determine eligibility subjects must have a 4 SC that is =2.5s but =12s on the screening assessment. It is not necessary to calculate the velocity. Are the trial subjects under 18? yes Number of subjects for this age range: 105 F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Subjects with known cognitive impairment or behavioral issues that would impede the ability to follow instructions. 2. History of major surgical procedure within 6 weeks of signing the informed consent or planned surgery during the study. 3. Any injury which may impact functional testing. Previous injuries must be fully healed prior to consenting. Prior lower limb fractures must be fully healed and at least 3 months from injury date. 4. Presence or history of other musculoskeletal or neurologic disease or somatic disorder not related to DMD including pulmonary and cardiac disease. 5. Compromised cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction <55% as determined on a screening cardiac MRI or echocardiogram). Subjects may be receiving ACE (angiotensin-converting-enzyme) inhibitors, beta blockers, ARB (angiotensin II receptor blocker) or aldosterone blocker/thiazide diuretic; however they must have initiated treatment more than 3 months prior to screening to ensure stable therapy. 6. Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular (including uncontrolled hypertension), hepatic, neurologic, or allergic disease (including drug allergies, but excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of dosing). 7. Documented history of iron overload including hemochromatosis, beta thalassemia major, beta thalassemia intermedia or hemolytic anemia. 8. Unwilling or unable (eg, metal implants, requires sedation) to undergo examination with closed MRI without sedation. 9. Participation in other studies involving investigational drug(s) for a minimum of 30 days or within 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to signing the informed consent and/or during study participation. 10. Current or prior treatment with anti-myostatin, exon skipping, nonsense mutation targeted therapies ever or more than 30 days of treatment with utrophin modifiers and treatment with utrophin modifiers within 30 days prior to signing the informed consent and/or during study participation. 11. Current or prior treatment within the past 3 months with androgens or human growth hormone. 12. Current treatment with immunosuppressant therapies (other than glucocorticoid steroids), aminoglycosides (eg, gentamicin), multi-vitamins with iron and iron supplements and other investigational therapies (including idebenone). 13. History of allergic or anaphylactic reaction to a therapeutic or diagnostic protein or additives of this investigational product (histidine, sucrose, edetic acid [ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid], and polysorbate 80). 14. Have suicidal ideation and behavior associated with actual intent and/or method and/or plan and/or action (eg, self-harming behaviors) in the past 6 months based on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS Children’s Baseline/Screening Appendix 1) or at baseline (C-SSRS Children’s Since Last Visit Appendix 2). 15. Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are biologically capable of having children and are sexually active who are unwilling or unable to use a condom to prevent potential transfer of exposure to drug through semen; male subjects of childbearing potential, with their female partners at risk for pregnancy, who are unwilling or unable to use a highly effective method of contraception as outlined in this protocol (in addition to the condom to prevent potential transfer of drug through semen) for the duration of the s
