Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
A total of approximately 22 subjects will receive PF-06939926, and these will include both ambulatory and non-ambulatory subjects. Up to 13 subjects may be included in a cohort that includes the concomitant medication, sirolimus. In order to mitigate unanticipated risks to subject safety, enrollment will be staggered within and between two planned dose-levels and will include a formal review by an external data monitoring committee (E-DMC) prior to dose progression.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* FOR AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS, defined as the ability to walk at least 10 meters unassisted: Between 4 and 12 years, inclusive,
* FOR NON-AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS, defined as the inability to walk at least 10 meters unassisted: No age restrictions so long as loss of ambulation occurs prior to the subject's 17th birthday;
* Diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy confirmed by medical history and genetic testing;
* Receipt of glucocorticoids for 6 months and a stable daily dose for at least 3 months prior to study entry;
* Ability to tolerate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without sedation and with no contraindications to these procedures;
* Ability to tolerate muscle biopsies under anesthesia with no contraindications to these procedures;
* Body weights as follows, based on ambulatory status:
* FOR AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Between 15 kg and 50 kg,
* FOR NON-AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Less than 75 kg, but which may be managed or adjusted to a lower limit, especially to ensure participant safety;
* Functional performance as follows, based on ambulatory status:
* FOR AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Ability to rise from floor within seven (7) seconds,
* FOR NON-AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Percent predicted forced vital capacity greater than 40% as part of pulmonary function tests, as well as adequate upper limb function.
Exclusion Criteria
* Prior exposure to any gene therapy agent, including exon-skipping agents;
* Exposure to other investigational drugs within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer;
* Neutralizing antibodies (NAb) against adeno-associated virus, serotype 9 (AAV9);
* Compromised cardiac function as indicated by left ventricular ejection fraction on cardiac MRI, as follows, based on ambulatory status:
* FOR AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Less than 55%,
* FOR NON-AMBULATORY PARTICIPANTS: Less than 35%;
* Inadequate hepatic or renal function or risk factors for autoimmune disease on screening laboratory assessments.
* The following genetic abnormalities in the dystrophin gene as confirmed by the investigator based on the review of the DMD genetic testing:
1. Any mutation (exon deletion, exon duplication, insertion, or point mutation) affecting any exon between exon 9 and exon 13, inclusive; OR
2. A deletion that affects both exon 29 and exon 30.
Sirolimus Cohort
* Hypersensitivity to sirolimus or intolerance to soy, including a history of angioedema
* Concomitant use with strong CYP3A4/P-gp inducers or inhibitors
