Brief Summary:
The intent of this protocol is to provide continued access to vamorolone for subjects in the United States who Have Completed the VBP15-LTE, VBP15- 004, or VBP15-006 protocols (and are thereby ineligible to enroll in another trial of vamorolone therapy), during the time a new drug application for vamorolone is under preparation and review.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Drug: Vamorolone

Detailed Description:
Vamorolone will be shipped to the subject's family by the study site. The patient will receive standard of care treatment and procedures for management of DMD. Treating Physicians participating in the expanded access program are required to collect and document any physician, patient, or caregiver reported safety events and report to the Sponsor. The subject's dose of vamorolone may be increased or decreased within a range of 2.0 to 6.0 mg/kg/day (only doses of 2 mg/kg, 4 mg/kg and 6 mg/kg are allowed), given once daily. Administration of vamorolone (taken with an 8 ounce (240 ml) glass of full fat milk, or equivalent high-fat food portion) will be unchanged from the VBP15-LTE, VBP15-004, or VBP15-006 studies. In the absence of safety concerns, and while this Expanded Access protocol isactive, vamorolone may be provided indefinitely or until approval, providedthat the Treating Physician and family agrees that continued administrationof vamorolone is in the best interest of the child.
