These are the different steps that a treatment goes through during clinical development before it is approved for use.

Phase 3

Placebo Controlled

In this type of study, some participants receive a “placebo,” which looks like the study treatment, but does not actually contain the active treatment.

Trial Type

This is the general nature of the study.

Trial Type
Interventional

Interventional

Participants in these studies are subject to an intervention by researchers. These trials are used to understand the effects of a particular intervention.

Blinding

Study participants know which treatments they might get if they join the trial, however during a trial they may not be informed which treatment they are actually taking. The act of not disclosing this information to the participant is known as “blinding.”

Intervention Type

This is a medicine, device, or other type of treatment that is being studied or is already approved for use. Interventions can also include behavior changes, like diet and exercise.

Primary Outcome

Primary Outcome

This is the most important measurement of the study and is used to help researchers evaluate the effect of a treatment.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)

Timeframe: Baseline up to 3 years

Secondary Outcome

Secondary Outcome

This measurement is a secondary measurement and is still important in helping researchers evaluate the effect of a treatment.

Change From Baseline in the Modified Friedreich Ataxia Rating Scale (mFARS) and its 4 Subscales (Upright Stability, Upper Limb, Lower Limb, Bulbar) Scores at Year 3

Timeframe: Baseline, Year 3
