Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dose response of Bocidelpar on functional improvement relative to placebo, safety, and tolerability in participants with Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy.
Detailed Description
Efficacy (i.e., functional improvement) was assessed by a functional motor test, 6-minute walk test (6MWT). The study consisted of the following portions: screening (4 weeks); double-blind treatment period with 2 doses of Bocidelpar vs matching placebo (24 weeks) and follow up (4 weeks). Participants were randomly placed into 1 of 3 arms (Bocidelpar 30 mgs, Bocidelpar 75 mgs or placebo).

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Participant agrees and is able to adhere to the study requirements for the length of the study, including performing 6MWT.
- •Diagnosed with primary mitochondrial myopathy (PMM), consisting of the following:
- •Molecular genetic abnormality (i.e., nuclear or mitochondrial) known to be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction (such as, but not limited to, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) single deletions in chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) and Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS); mtDNA m.3243 A \> G pathogenic nuclear or mitochondrial genome variants demonstrated to cause primary mitochondrial disease), and
- •Participant reported symptoms (i.e., muscle weakness, fatigue and exercise intolerance) or physical examination findings of myopathy that are the predominant symptoms of the participant's mitochondrial disorder.
- •Participant has been on stable dose regimen of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), carnitine, creatine, or other mitochondrial disease- focused vitamins or supplemental therapies for the treatment of symptoms of the mitochondrial disease for at least 3 months prior to randomization and intends to stay on a stable dose for duration of study period.
- •Participant has been on stable exercise regimen within 4 weeks prior to randomization and intends to stay on a stable regimen for duration of study period (for participants who participate in a regular exercise regimen).
- •Female participant is not pregnant and at least one of the following conditions apply:
- •Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP).
- •WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance from the time of informed consent through at least 30 days after final study treatment administration.
- •Female participant must agree not to breastfeed starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 30 days after final study treatment administration.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Participant has additional signs and/or symptoms due to non-myopathic process (e.g., cerebellar dysfunctions, movement disorder, peripheral neuropathy, stroke or other) or a gait problem not attributed to the myopathy that would interfere with the participant's performance during 6MWT or 5 times sit to stand (5XSTS).
- •Participant has received any investigational therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to screening.
- •Participant has any condition, which makes the participant unsuitable for study participation.
- •Participant has cardiac troponin I (cTnI) \> upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening.
- •Participant has estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated by the chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration equation \< 60 milliliter per minute per 1.73-meter square at screening or a history of chronic kidney disease stage 3 or greater.
- •Participant has at screening\*: total bilirubin (TBL) \> ULN or transaminase(s) (aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\] or alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\]) \> ULN in the absence of elevations in CK. Participants who have a slightly elevated TBL and/or ALT and/or AST and are suitable candidates for the study may be enrolled after discussion of the case with the medical monitor and completion of further evaluation as warranted.
- •Participant has psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or major depressive disorder that has not been under control within 3 months prior to screening.
- •Participant has a history of suicide attempt, suicidal behavior or has any suicidal ideation within 1 year prior to screening that meets criteria at a level of 4 or 5 by using the Columbia- Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) or who is at significant risk to commit suicide.
- •Participant has severe behavioral or cognitive problems that preclude participation in the study.
- •Participant has undergone an in-patient hospitalization that precludes participation in the study, within the 30 days prior to the randomization.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change From Baseline in Distanced Walked During a 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT).
Time Frame: Baseline, week 24
6MWT assessed functional capacity and endurance by measuring the distance walked in 6 minutes. This test helped to assess exercise tolerance, physical fitness, disease progression, and treatment effectiveness in individuals with myopathy. The total distance walked by a participant, as well as distance per minute was calculated by rounding to the nearest meter.
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: From first dose up to week 52
An Adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug, and which dint have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. TEAE was defined as an AE observed after starting administration of the study drug through 28 days after the last dose.
Number of Participants With Suicidal Ideation and/ or Behavior as Assessed by Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
Time Frame: From the first dose up to week 52
The C-SSRS was a questionnaire used for suicide risk assessment. Affirmative or negative responses were provided to items 1 to 5 for suicidal ideation (1. Wish to be dead, 2. Non-specific active suicidal thoughts, 3. Active suicidal ideation with any methods \[not plan\] without intent to act, 4. Active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan, 5. Active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent) and items 6 to 10 for suicide behavior (6. Preparatory acts or behavior, 7. Aborted attempt, 8. Interrupted attempt, 9. Actual attempt, 10. Completed suicide). The overall data was reported.
Secondary Outcomes

- Change From Baseline in Time to Perform the 5 Times Sit to Stand (5XSTS) Test(Baseline, week 24)
- Change From Baseline in Neuro-QoL Short Form Lower Extremity Function (Mobility) Scores(Baseline, week 24)
- Number of Participants With Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score at Week 24(Week 24)
- Number of Participants With Change From Baseline in Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) at Week 24(Baseline, week 24)
- Change From Baseline in Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS)(Baseline, week 24)
