Study Purpose: 

This is a pre-Phase 1 prospective, non interventional clinical assessment study to evaluate XLMTM subjects aged 3 years and younger. Many of these clinically relevant measures have not yet been routinely assessed in this population and may provide important insight on the natural history of XLMTM and for future evaluation of potential therapies.
