Official Title: An Exploratory, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Single-center, Two-way Cross-over Study With KH176 in Patients With the Mitochondrial DNA tRNALeu(UUR) m.3243A>G Mutation and Clinical
Brief Summary: Mitochondrial Diseases are rare, progressive, multi-system, often-early fatal disorders affecting both children and adults. KH176 is a novel chemical entity currently under development for the treatment of inherited mitochondrial diseases, including MELAS (Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic acidosis, and Stroke-like episodes), MIDD (Maternally Inherited Diabetes and Deafness), Leigh's Disease and LHON (Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy). The current Proof of Concept study aims to explore the effects of treatment with KH176 for 4 weeks on clinical signs and symptoms and biomarkers of mitochondrial disease and to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of KH176 in patients with m.3242A>G related mitochondrial disease.
