A longitudinal study of disease progression in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD)

In preparation for clinical trials, it is important to better understand how disease burden changes over time in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) and to assess the capability of select metrics to detect these changes. This study aims to evaluate FSHD disease progression over 1 year and to examine the sensitivity of several outcome measures in detecting changes during this interval.
