Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To determine the efficacy of amantadine in patients with degenerative ataxias mild to moderate, as mediating the SARA scale. Determine changes in blood levels of frataxin levels in patients with degenerative ataxias mild to moderate before and after starting treatment. Objectives of safety and tolerance.;Secondary Objective: - Echocardiography in the case of patients with Friedreich's Ataxia<br>- Neuro-ophthalmology rating <br>- Visual evoked potentials<br>- Otoneurological review<br>- Brain MRI<br>- Determine changes in blood levels of IGF-1 and fratraxina in patients with Friedreich's ataxia mild to moderate before and after starting treatment.;Primary end point(s): Neurological assessment<br>Otoneurological review;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months
Secondary Outcome Measures
