Study Overview

Brief Summary

Study of the efficiency of Béfizal® 200 mg in 14 adult patients with a LHON that occurred for less than 5 years. Patient must have certain specific mutations

Detailed Description

Study of the efficiency of Béfizal® 200 mg in 14 adult patients in whom the diagnosis of LHON obtained on anamnestic, clinical and ancillary testing / laboratory data. LHON should have occurred for less than 5 years and must be genetically proved with a 3460 or 11778 mitochondrial DNA mutation. Given the mode of transmission, genetic research may have been carried out in a maternal relative

Inclusion Criteria

  • Adult patients in whom the diagnosis of LHON obtained on anamnestic, clinical and ancillary testing / laboratory data. LHON should have occurred for less than 5 years and must be genetically proved with a 3460 or 11778 mitochondrial DNA mutation. Given the mode of transmission, genetic research may have been carried out in a maternal relative

Exclusion Criteria

  • * Any optic neuropathy for which the diagnosis of LHON is not formally confirmed or genetically proven;
  • LHON that started for more than 5 years;
  • LHON associated with another primary mutation than 3460 or 11778
  • Children or adult patients under guardianship or deprived of liberty by administrative or judicial decision;
  • Women of childbearing age ; pregnant or lactating women;
  • Patients who do not have affiliation to a social protection scheme (national or private insurance / beneficiary or assignee);

  • Allergy to fibrate, bezafibrate and / or BEFIZAL® 200mg (Arrow Generiques) or one of these constituents;
  • Photosensitivity reactions related to fibrates;
  • Patient already receiving treatment with fibrates or HMG Co-A reductase inhibitors or anticoagulants;
  • Hepatic insuffisiency or dysfunction with increased of transaminases (AST and ALT) over 3 times of the normal;
  • Renal insufficiency with serum creatinine> 15 mg / L (> 135 mg / dL) Biliary pathology

Arms & Interventions

treatment group

Experimental

14 adult patients in whom the diagnosis of LHON obtained on anamnestic, clinical and ancillary testing / laboratory data. LHON should have occurred for less than 5 years and must be genetically proved with a 3460 or 11778 mitochondrial DNA mutation. Given the mode of transmission, genetic research may have been carried out in a maternal relative.

Befizal® 200 mg will be tested for one year

Intervention: Béfizal (Drug)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Evolution of best corrected farsight visual acuity (in LogMAR)

Time Frame: Month12

Measurement of the best corrected farsight visual acuity by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study type scale (range from -0.3 to 2.6) -0.3 is the best vision and 2.6 the worse

Secondary Outcomes

  • Evolution of Farsight decimal best corrected visual acuity(Month 15)
  • Evolution of retinal nerve fibers layer Optical Coherent Tomography(Month 12)
  • Concentration of serum creatinine(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Rate of Partial thromboplastin time(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Farsight best corrected visual acuity(Month 3)
  • automated visual field(Month 9 of a treatment with BEFIZAL® 200mg (ARROW GENERIQUES) compare to Month 0)
  • Evolution of Farsight best corrected visual acuity(Month 3)
  • Evolution of Nearsight visual acuity(Month 15)
  • Concentration of Alanine aminotransférase(Every three months until Month 15)
  • automated visual field measurement(Month 15)
  • Concentration of lactate deshydrogenase(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Manual visual field measurement(Month 15)
  • National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire 25(Month 12)
  • Concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Concentration of very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Concentration of triglycerides(Every three months until Month 15)
  • Concentration of Aspartate aminotransférase(Every three months until Month 15)
