Background

Omaveloxolone (RTA-408) is a semisynthetic oleanane triterpenoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Omaveloxolone acts as an activator of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2), a transcription factor that mitigates oxidative stress. In patients with Friedreich's ataxia, a genetic disease involving mitochondrial dysfunction, the Nrf2 pathway is impaired, and Nrf2 activity is lower. Therefore, the use of Nrf2 activators such as omaveloxolone represents a therapeutic advantage in this group of patients. In February 2023, omaveloxolone was approved by the FDA for the treatment of Friedreich's ataxia in adults and adolescents aged 16 years and older. The use of omaveloxolone for the treatment of conditions involving mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress has also been evaluated.

Indication

Omaveloxolone is indicated for the treatment of Friedreich's ataxia in adults and adolescents aged 16 years and older.
