简要总结
Friedreich ataxia, an autosomal recessive condition, ascribed to frataxin gene expansion, has been shown to result from an iron- induced injury to the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Buffering free radicals with short-chain quinones (Idebenone) protects the patients against cardiomyopathy but not CNS involvement. Removing CNS iron should limit the impact of the neurological symptoms of the disease.
详细描述
The current clinical trial is a monocentric open phase1-2 trial in the context of rare diseases framework, aimed to the goal of defining the tolerance/efficacy of the treatment.
Inclusion criteria: minimum age: 13 years Follow up in the Dept of Genetics, Hospital Necker-Enfants Malades, Paris, France
