Myopathy clinical trials at UCSD

HOPE-3 is a two cohort, Phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of a cell therapy called deramiocel (CAP-1002) in study participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and impaired skeletal muscle function. Non-ambulatory and ambulatory boys and young men who meet eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to receive either deramiocel or placebo every 3 months for a total of 4 doses during the first 12 months of the study. All participants will be eligible to receive 4 doses of deramiocel for an additional 12 months as part of an open-label extended assessment period. After completion of the first open-label extension (Months 12-24), subjects who have completed Month 24 are eligible to continue onto a Long-Term Open-Label Extension period that will provide treatment with deramiocel until commercial availability, or until sponsor's decision to terminate the trial, or the participant withdraws consent.
