A Study to Learn More About the Long-Term Safety of BIIB141 (Omaveloxolone) in Participants With Friedreich's Ataxia Who Are Prescribed it by Their Own Doctors
In this study, researchers will learn more about the safety of BIIB141, also known as omaveloxolone or SKYCLARYS®. This is a drug available for doctors to prescribe for people with Friedreich's Ataxia, also known as FA. This is known as an "observational" study, which collects health information about study participants …
Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures …
Characterization of the Cardiac Phenotype of Friedreich's Ataxia (FRDA)
Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by loss of coordination and cardiomyopathy. It is the most common form of inherited ataxia with an incidence in 1/50,000 in the Caucasian population. FRDA is associated with progressive damage to the nervous system, resulting in symptoms ranging from gait disturbance …
FRIEDREICH ATAXIA- STEROIDOGENESIS
Friedreich's ataxia (FA) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by GAA repeat expansion in the FXN gene, leading to impaired iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biosynthesis and mitochondrial dysfunction. Fe-S clusters are essential for the function of several enzymes involved in steroid hormone production. While animal and cell culture studies suggest …
Biomarkers in Friedreich's Ataxia
The purpose of this project is to characterize measures of cardiac performance and neuromuscular physiology in FA patients using novel techniques, including echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), metabolic exercise testing, and neurophysiological outcomes.
Patient-reported, Health Economic and Psychosocial Outcomes in Friedreich Ataxia
The PROFA study is an international, multi-centric observational and validation study to assess the patient-reported, psychosocial and economic outcomes of patients with Friedreich Ataxia (FA). Eligible patients will be recruited from six study centers in Germany, Austria and France. Patients will complete a baseline assessment via face-to-face interviews at the …
Characterisation of the Cognitive Profile of Patients Suffering From Friedreich's Ataxia
Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) Friedreich's Ataxia is a neurodegenerative disease caused by a homozygous expansion of the GAA triplet repeats of the frataxin gene (FXN). FA usually begins in childhood or adolescence. It affects both boys and girls. At the neurophysiological level, FA is characterised by neuronal loss affecting the dorsal …
A Study to Learn How BIIB141 (Omaveloxolone) Affects the Health of Participants With Friedrich's Ataxia Who Took it During Pregnancy and/or During Breastfeeding and About the Health of Their Babies
In this study, researchers will learn more about the safety of BIIB141, also known as omaveloxolone or SKYCLARYS. This is a drug available for doctors to prescribe for people with Friedrich's Ataxia, also known as FA. This is known as an "observational" study, which collects health information about study participants …
Frataxin mRNA in Biofluids
The purpose of this research study is to determine a way to measure frataxin messenger RNA (mRNA) in fluids such as blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA). The gene mutation in FRDA leads to low levels of the mRNA and then low levels of the …
