Abstract: The North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA) is a widely used functional endpoint in drug development for ambulatory patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Accurately predicting NSAA total score trajectories is important for designing randomized trials for novel therapies in DMD and for contextualizing outcomes, especially over longer-term follow-up (>18 months) when placebo-controlled studies are infeasible. We developed a prognostic model for NSAA total score trajectories over at most 5 years of follow-up for patients with DMD aged 4 to
