CURE DUCHENNE
Diagnosis to Determination When Corona del Mar residents Debra and Paul Miller received their son Hawken’s Duchenne muscular dystrophy diagnosis, the weight of those words was crushing. No cure. No treatments. No time to wait. But instead of standing still, they moved fast. They launched CureDuchenne in 2003 with a bold strategy: funding innovative science, investing in biotech breakthroughs, and pushing promising treatments from labs to patients. Their relentless pursuit has helped bring 18 potential treatments to clinical trials and resulted in the first FDA-approved drugs for Duchenne. But the fight isn’t over. Every day, families facing Duchenne muscular dystrophy need access to ground-breaking treatments, expert care, and the promise of a future. You can play an important role in changing the future of Duchenne!
Paul, Hawken, and Debra Miller
