Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter phase 3 randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of daily subcutaneous injections of elamipretide in subjects with primary mitochondrial myopathy. This will be followed by an open-label treatment extension.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Combination Product: elamipretide Combination Product: placebo comparator Combination Product: elamipretide open label treatment Phase 3

Detailed Description:
Part 11 is a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled assessment of the efficacy and safety of single daily subcutaneous (SC) doses of 40 mg elamipretide (vs placebo) administered with the elamipretide delivery system as a treatment for subjects with primary mitochondrial myopathy (PMM). Part 2 was to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of single daily SC doses of 40 mg elamipretide administered with the elamipretide delivery system for up to 144 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Six-minute Walk Test (6MWT) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]
    Change From Baseline in Distance Walked (meters) on the Six-Minute Walk Test by Visit

  2. Total Fatigue Score on the on the Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Symptom Assessment (PMMSA) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]
    Change from Baseline in Total fatigue score on the on the Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Symptom Assessment (PMMSA) by visit. Each individual item score ranges from 1 (none) to 4 (severe). The total fatigue score ranges from 4-16. Lower values represent a better outcome. The total fatigue score is the sum of question 1 through question 4 on the Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Symptom Assessment.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Fatigue During Activities Score on the Primary Mitochondrial Disease Symptom Assessment (PMMSA). [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]
    Change from baseline in Fatigue During Activities. Fatigue During Activities is the sum of question 2 (tiredness during activities) and question 4 (muscle weakness during activities.) The four response options are: 1=Not at all, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, and 4=Severe. Raw scores for each subject range from 2-8. A lower score means a better outcome, with less fatigue. A higher score means a worse outcome, with more fatigue.

  2. Neuro-QoL Fatigue Activities of Daily Living [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]
    Change From Baseline in Neuro-QoL Fatigue Activities of Daily Living by Visit. Each individual item score ranges from 1-5. Total raw score for the entire item bank ranges from 19-95. Raw scores will be calibrated using Item Response Theory Model. Lower values represent a better outcome. Individual items will be summed to calculate total scores.

  3. Change From Baseline in the Most Bothersome Symptom Score on the Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Symptoms Assessment [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]
    The item score rangers from 1 (none) to 4 (severe). Lower values represent a better outcome. The most bothersome score is the average of the identified most bothersome symptom of the Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy Symptom Assessment by each subject.

  4. Neuro-QoL Fatigue Short Form Score [ Time Frame: 24 Weeks ]
    Change From Baseline in Neuro-QoL Fatigue - Short Form: Total T-Scores by Visit. The Neuro-QoL Fatigue Short Form is comprised of the sum of the first 8 questions of the Neuro-QoL Item Bank v1.0 - Fatigue. Each question is scored as following: 1=Never, 2=Rarely, 3=Sometimes, 4=Often, and 5=Always. The questions include: I felt exhausted, I felt that I had no energy, I felt fatigued, I was too tired to do my household chores, I was too tired to leave the house, I was frustrated by being too tired to do the things I wanted to do, I felt tired, and I had to limit my social activity because I was tired. T-scores are calculated from the short form scoring table provided by the instrument authors (Neuro-QoL User Manual, 2015). T-score distributions rescale raw scores into standardized scores with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation (SD) of 10. Change from baseline: Negative numbers mean less fatigue, better outcome, positive score means more fatigue, worse outcome.
