About

This Study is single arm, single center trial to check the safety and efficacy of BMMNC (100 million per dose) for the patient with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy,

Full description

Muscular dystrophies, or MD, are a group of inherited conditions, which means they are passed down through families. They may occur in childhood or adulthood. There are many different types of muscular dystrophy. They include:

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a form of muscular dystrophy that worsens quickly. Other muscular dystrophy (including Becker's muscular dystrophy) get worse much more slowly.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by a defective gene for dystrophin (a protein in the muscles). However, it often occurs in people without a known family history of the condition.

Symptoms usually appear before age 6 and may appear as early as infancy. They may include:

Fatigue

Learning difficulties (the IQ (intelligence quotient )can be below 75)

Intellectual disability (possible, but does not get worse over time)

Muscle weakness

Begins in the legs and pelvis, but also occurs less severely in the arms, neck, and other areas of the body

Difficulty with motor skills (running, hopping, jumping)
