21 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a parallel arm non-randomized dose-escalation, open-label basket exploratory phase 1 clinical trial where Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy-Plus (LHON-Plus) participants will undergo simultaneous enrollment in two disease-based arms and receive daily oral doses of glycerol tributyrate to assess its safety and potential for efficacy using clinical, biochemical, and molecular evidence. This study will utilize a two-month baseline lead-in phase to establish and document the clinical baseline for each participant in both arms in order to compare the molecular and clinical parameters. This is clinically relevant in light of the high clinical heterogeneity among subjects affected by the same mitochondrial disease (MELAS or LHON-Plus). For ethical concerns prompted by the lack of treatment for these two intractable and progressive mitochondrial diseases, there will not be a placebo control group. Thus, each participant will act as their own control and receive oral doses of glycerol tributyrate, eliminating the need for a placebo. Considering the high clinical heterogeneity among participants affected by MELAS or LHON-Plus and some clinical divergence between MELAS and LHON-Plus, this strategy is beneficial to every enrolled participants, as each will receive the investigational drug, glycerol tributyrate. In addition, this approach will determine the subject-specific maximal optimized dose in a personalized medicine-based approach. After approval of the IRB protocol from the Institutional Review Board Data and signed consent form from all participants, this investigational basket clinical trial has three phases spanning over 20 months: * A baseline lead-in phase (2 months) to collect participant-specific baseline for clinical, biochemical, molecular and metabolic biomarkers that will be monitored throughout the subsequent dose-escalation and clinical phases. * A dose-escalation phase (6 months) to determine the participant-specific maximum tolerated dose (MTD) during which participant-specific clinical and biochemical biomarkers are collected every month. * A clinical phase at a fixed subject-specific MTD dose (12 months) to collect participant-specific clinical, biochemical, molecular and metabolic biomarkers and to perform three scheduled skin biopsies: at the outset, mid-point, and the end of this clinucal phase. We have planned for a 12-month-long clinical phase at a fixed participant-specific MTD considering the absence of reliable predictors that makes idiosyncratic disease-specific symptoms for MELAS and LHON-Plus impossible to forecast among participant for assessing the potential efficacy of glycerol tributyrate by monitoring clinical symptoms specific for each disease. During the 12-month-long time-frame, disease-specific clinical symptoms will be collected as preliminary evidence of efficacy of glycerol tributyrate using disease-specific biomarkers. Finally, discharge procedure during which the clinical investigator will record non-serious adverse events or serious adverse events for 7 or 30 days, respectively, after the last day of study participation.

LEROS is an open-label interventional Phase IV study, designed to further assess the efficacy and safety of Raxone® in the long-term treatment of LHON patients.
This is a Phase 2, prospective, randomized, double-masked, vehicle controlled, single-center study in approximately 12 subjects with LHON to evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of elamipretide (MTP-131) topical ophthalmic solution in this patient population. At the conclusion of 52 weeks of treatment, subjects will be offered the opportunity to enter an Open Label Extension for up to 48 additional weeks of treatment.
Expanded access Protocol to treat LHON subjects with EPI743
The study is a dose-escalation study, phase 1. The objective of this proposed clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of mitochondrially targeted ND4 gene therapy with the adeno-associated viral vector in appropriate LHON patients.
The overall objective of the proposed research is to test the hypothesis that Near-infrared Light-emitting Diode (NIR-LED) therapy will stimulate mitochondrial function, attenuate oxidative stress, and improve cell survival and vision in subjects with Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON).
This study is a multi-country retrospective and cross-sectional observational study of affected LHON subjects, based on retrospective subjects' medical chart abstractions and cross-sectional administration of patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of GS010, a gene therapy, in improving the retina functional \& structural outcomes in subjects with LHON due to the G11778A ND4 mitochondrial mutation when vision loss duration is present up to one year.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of GS010, a gene therapy, in improving the visual outcome in participants with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) due to the G11778A ND4 mitochondrial mutation when vision loss is present for more than six months and up to one year.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of GS010, a gene therapy, in improving the visual outcome in participants with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) due to the G11778A ND4 mitochondrial mutation when vision loss is present for six months or less.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of GS010, a gene therapy, and assess the quality of life in subjects with LHON due to the G11778A ND4 mitochondrial mutation and who were treated in the Rescue or Reverse studies.
This study investigates a new technology to assess the structure and function inside the eye. Retinal imaging of subjects with inner and outer retinal defects to detect areas of abnormal structure and function compared to other visual function tests.
This study will evaluate the use of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) for the treatment of retinal and optic nerve damage or disease.
The investigators are studying patients with undefined mitochondrial diseases to identify genetic mutations in nuclear or mitochondrial Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA). Most patients with suspected or known mitochondrial diseases have no genetic confirmation. The investigators expect that evaluating tissue samples from patients with mitochondrial disorders will lead us to discover mutations in new or known genes causing mitochondrial dysfunction.

To evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy of cysteamine bitartrate delayed-release capsules (RP103) administered at a target maintenance dose of 1.3 g/m²/day in two divided doses, every 12 hours, for up to 6 months in patients with inherited mitochondrial disease.
This is an open-label, dose escalation, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study, where active study drug (QPI-1007) will be given to all patients who participate. This study will determine whether QPI-1007 is safe when it is injected into the eye. The study will also reveal if there are any side effects of the drug and how long it takes for the body to clear the drug.
The North American Mitochondrial Disease Consortium (NAMDC) maintains a patient contact registry and tissue biorepository for patients with mitochondrial disorders.
The participant is being asked to be a subject in this research study because the participant may have a disorder that can cause optic nerve damage and impairment of his/her visual function which is called optic neuropathies (ON). Optic neuropathy refers to damage to the optic nerve (a "cable" connecting the eyes and the brain to transmit the visual signals) due to any cause.In this study, the investigator is using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ophthalmic measures such as optic coherent tomography(OCT), which are non-invasive imaging tests to measure the changes in eye globe shape ,the flow of blood and brain fluid. It is hoped that this study will provide new knowledge that may allow the investigator to better understand the cause of symptoms associated with optic neuropathy and ways to better monitor what is happening.
