Standard protocols

Cure CMD and TREAT-NMD are collaborating in establishing standard protocols for efficacy studies in the laminin deficient mouse model LAMA2dy-W, the best described mouse model for a CMD disease. Readout parameters in mice were selected that are appropriate to show the efficacy of a new potential drug, and that are related to patient outcomes. For each of these parameters, small groups of experts will develop a standard assessment protocol. The availability of standard protocols will implement research and increase the comparability of results.

The SOPs that have already been completed can be downloaded from this site and others will be added in the future. The last date each SOP was reviewed can be found under the code on the left of the page.
