The PROFA study is an international, multi-centric observational and validation study to assess the patient-reported, psychosocial and economic outcomes of patients with Friedreich Ataxia (FA). Eligible patients will be recruited from six study centers in Germany, Austria and France. Patients will complete a baseline assessment via face-to-face interviews at the study centers and multiple momentary follow-up assessments via a mobile-health app at home daily to monthly for six months. Study results will gain essential and in-depth insights into the daily life of patients with FA.
