Two kinds of phenotypic varia+on – and why we care
• Larger, longer trials • Greater risk of not proving
efficacy
• Disconnect between individual experiences and research on average outcomes
• Smaller, shorter trials
• Greater confidence in trial design
• Pathway for conAnually improving individualized care

Mission
• Explain phenotypic variaAon in DMD
• Translate into tools for trial design/analysis
• Make insights available to everyone in drug development
• Deliver near-‐term impact
The benefit: accelerate effec,ve treatments to pa,ents
