A reasonable hypothesis is that increasing dystrophin will result in clinical improvement, and that the amount of dystrophin expressed will correlate with clinical improvement above a threshold level (e.g. around 30% of control). The initial limited efficacy data from completed and ongoing unblinded studies with GSK2402968 are encouraging as they have demonstrated de novo production of dystrophin and improved walking ability (primary efficacy endpoint) after 48 weeks of treatment which has been generally well tolerated.
