Hi everyone,

May I ask all of you what you think of this clinical trial and the
use of steroid? And If you are familiar with "deflazacort"=
Calcort* ?
I would like to have your POV as a patient?

In France, this steroid is not available though it is made by a
french/german pharmaceutical lab, Aventis pharma, since 1990.
So I have no experience except the knowledge of some trials in other
countries are going on inflammatory, rheumathological, auto-immun,
nephrological diseases and of course DMD.

Here I enclosed 2 links:

1- this is the technical idendity of deflazacort from Aventis in
french( sorry):

2- this is a link to the Medical Control Agency (UK)focuses on
steroids where you can find an article about deflazacort 1997:
