Effect of Tadalafil on cardiac function and left ventricular dimensions in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: safety and cardiac MRI substudy results from a randomized, placebo-controlled trial

Abstract Background Inhibition of phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) was hypothesized to slow disease progression in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Tadalafil, a once-daily PDE5 inhibitor, did not slow loss of ambulation in a phase 3 placebo-controlled trial. This report details the cardiac findings from...
