Prospective, longitudinal, interventional, multicenter natural history study to better understand the LGMDR5/2c disease physiopathology. The duration of participation for each patient will be up to 24 months.
Study duration Duration from First visit of first patient (FPFV) to Last visit of last patient (LPLV) : 3 years. Each patient will have a visit every 6 months over 2 years (5 visits in total). Study primary objective is to characterize the disease course in gamma-sarcoglycanopathy (LGMDr5/2c) patients using standardized and disease appropriate evaluations. Secondary objectives are to identify clinical, imaging and/or laboratory parameters that are indicators of the disease course in LGMD2c and to identify the best outcome measure for further therapeutics approaches
