How long does stem cell therapy for Muscular Dystrophy last?
Durability must be established for the exact product. A short biomarker or strength change cannot show sustained preservation of muscle or function, and evidence from an authorised gene therapy cannot be transferred to an MSC product.
How stem cells are studied for Muscular Dystrophy
Muscular dystrophies are a diverse group of inherited disorders, so diagnosis, affected gene, age, cardiac and respiratory status and disease stage determine appropriate care. Research spans gene replacement, exon skipping, gene editing, muscle progenitors and supportive-cell strategies. These mechanisms are different, and an MSC infusion does not correct an underlying pathogenic variant or reproduce an approved gene-targeted product.
