Our vision is a world without Duchenne.Â
Why Donate to CureDuchenne?
CureDuchenne has been an impetus behind progress in Duchenne muscular dystrophy research for 20 years, and our goal is to permanently remove it from the list of crippling and incurable childhood diseases.
We believe in tackling Duchenne from every angle – we created the world’s first Duchenne-specific physical therapy program and helped enable human clinical trials for the first-ever FDA approved drug for these patients. Now working globally, we are building the world’s first Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy Biobank, using the latest technology to connect researchers directly with patient data and bio-samples to accelerate drug development for a cure.
We need significant funds to ramp up the biobank and capitalize on CRISPR-CAS9 gene-editing technology, which is a game-changer for a genetic disease like Duchenne. We invite you to partner with us so your high-impact investment will ensure that the next discoveries lead to a world without Duchenne, so our boys will have a future.Â
