Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of a 0.9 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) and 0.45 mg/kg daily dose of deflazacort with a comparable natural history control group after 52 weeks of treatment in males with DMD aged greater than or equal to (\>=) 2 to lesser than (\<) 5 years.

The study will comprise of 2 periods (Period 1: 52-week safety and pharmacokinetics \[PK\], and Period 2: 52-week extension). Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of 2 treatment arms: 0.9 mg/kg deflazacort, and 0.45 mg/kg of deflazacort. A historic control group (which should match the study population as closely as possible) will be used as a comparator to characterize the safety and tolerability of deflazacort.
