Summary: This is a natural history study prospectively investigating neuroimaging markers of disease progression in children and adults with Friedreich ataxia (FA). There will be three assessment periods (baseline, 12 and 24 months). The study will include approximately 200 individuals with FA and 100 matched controls recruited across the six international academic sites. Other assessments will include sec...
Summary: This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-ascending, multicenter study of the safety and efficacy of LX2006 for participants who have Friedreich's Ataxia with evidence of cardiomyopathy. The first portion will evaluate two doses of single administration of LX2006 (AAVrh.10hFXN), an adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy designed to intravenously deliver the human frataxin (hFXN) gene to cardiac cel...
Summary: This multicenter natural history study aims to expand the network of clinical research centers in FA, and to provide a framework for facilitating therapeutic interventions. In addition, this study will lead to the development of valid yet sensitive clinical measures crucial to outcome assessment of patients with Friedreich's Ataxia. This study will support genetic modifier studies, biomarker studi...
Summary: The primary objective of the study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of vatiquinone administered in participants with Friedreich ataxia (FA) younger than 7 years.
Summary: This research study is testing body-worn sensors to measure movement during simple tests of coordination, in order to evaluate the progression and severity of ataxia.
Summary: The purpose of this project is to characterize measures of cardiac performance and neuromuscular physiology in FA patients using novel techniques, including echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), metabolic exercise testing, and neurophysiological outcomes.
Summary: To assess the impact of a 12-week virtual seated physical intervention on cardiovascular health and wellness in people with chronic neurological impairments (CNI).
Summary: To evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of subcutaneous (SC) administration of CTI-1601 over 28 days in subjects with Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA).
Summary: The investigators are performing this research study to determine whether having low iron-sulfur cluster levels can cause a disease known as pulmonary hypertension (PH). PH is defined as abnormally high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs. Usually, small specialized structures inside each human cell called mitochondria are in charge of generating energy within lung arteries for normal func...
Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic effects of multiple doses of intravenous DT-216 in adult patients with Friedrich Ataxia.
Summary: Randomized, placebo-controlled trial with a 2x2 factorial design testing the effects of an NAD+ precursor (NR) and exercise on VO2max and Si in Friedreich's Ataxia (FA). The primary objective of this research is to measure the effect of combination administration (NR + exercise) on aerobic capacity (VO2max) in FA. A key secondary objective is to measure the effect of combination administration (NR...
Summary: Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by loss of coordination and cardiomyopathy. It is the most common form of inherited ataxia with an incidence in 1/50,000 in the Caucasian population. FRDA is associated with progressive damage to the nervous system, resulting in symptoms ranging from gait disturbance to speech problems, as well as diabetes and heart disease...
