Outcome Measures
| 1. Primary: | Absolute Change in International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS) Scores From Baseline Assessment to Week 52 [ Time Frame: Baseline and week 52 ] |
| 2. Secondary: | Absolute Change in Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (FARS) Scores From Baseline Assessment to Week 52 [ Time Frame: Baseline and week 52 ] |
| 3. Secondary: | Proportion of Patients Improving (Responding) on ICARS by a Clinically Relevant Margin [ Time Frame: week 52 ] |
| 4. Secondary: | Proportion of Patients Improving on Left Ventricular Peak Systolic Strain Rate or Showing a Reduction in Left Ventricular Mass Index (LVMI) With no Worsening in Strain Rate [ Time Frame: 1 year ] |
| 5. Secondary: | Change in Peak Systolic Strain Rate From Baseline to Week 52 [ Time Frame: 1 year ] |
| 6. Secondary: | Change in Peak Workload From Baseline to Week 52 [ Time Frame: 1 year ] |
Limitations and Caveats
| Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data |
