Why do current therapeutic approaches beyond exercise show limited efficacy in IBM treatment?

OPEN

The abstract states that exercise remains the primary therapeutic modality and new treatment targets are needed, implying failure of other interventions. The mechanistic basis for why IBM resists most therapeutic approaches while responding to exercise is not explained, limiting rational drug development.
