A Study to Learn More About the Effects and Long-Term Safety of BIIB141 (Omaveloxolone) in Participants With Friedreich's Ataxia Aged 2 to 15 Years Old
NCT06953583
Recruiting
In this study, researchers will learn more about the effects and safety of BIIB141, also known as omaveloxolone or SKYCLARYS®. This drug has been approved, or made available for doctors to prescribe, for people with Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) who are at least 16 years old. But, it is not yet available for children and teens with FA who are younger than 16 years old. The main objective of this study is to learn how BIIB141 works in the body and about its safety in children and teens who are 2 to 15... Read More

Phase IA and IB Study of AAVrh.10hFXN Gene Therapy for the Cardiomyopathy of Friedreich's Ataxia
NCT05302271
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and preliminary efficacy of AAVrh.10hFXN to treat the cardiomyopathy associated with Friedreich's ataxia (FA). AAVrh.10hFXN is a serotype rh.10 adeno-associated virus gene transfer vector coding for Frataxin (FXN). The drug is administered intravenously. This is a phase 1, open label, dose escalation study with a total of 25 participants.

Frataxin mRNA in Biofluids
NCT06496451
Recruiting
The purpose of this research study is to determine a way to measure frataxin messenger RNA (mRNA) in fluids such as blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA). The gene mutation in FRDA leads to low levels of the mRNA and then low levels of the protein frataxin that leads to the disease. Treatments being developed for FRDA have the ability increase these levels including in brain where it is needed. Currently, there is no accepted way to measure frataxin pr... Read More
