Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome, myopathic form

This phase 2 study tests a combination of two nucleoside drugs, doxecitine and doxribtimine, in 47 people with thymidine kinase 2 (TK2) deficiency, a rare genetic disorder that weakens muscles. Participants already receiving nucleoside therapy continue treatment to see if the dru…

This program offered vatiquinone, an experimental liquid medication, to patients with inherited mitochondrial diseases like Leigh syndrome who had already completed a previous safety study. The goal was to continue treatment for those who might benefit, but enrollment is now clos…

This study tests two natural substances, deoxythymidine and deoxycytidine, in people with TK2 deficiency, a rare genetic condition that causes muscle weakness and breathing problems. The goal is to see if these nucleotide precursors can help cells make more mitochondrial DNA and …

This study tests a personalized workplace intervention for 124 Dutch workers with Parkinson's disease, cerebellar ataxia, hereditary spastic paraparesis, or slowly progressive neuromuscular/mitochondrial disorders. A trained facilitator helps employees and their managers identify…

This study uses special MRI scans to measure how well muscles produce energy in people with mitochondrial disease. Researchers hope to learn more about the condition and develop a new tool to help diagnose and track it. The study involves 230 participants aged 7 to 75 with suspec…

This study aims to discover new genetic mutations that cause mitochondrial disorders by analyzing tissue samples from up to 6,900 participants. It includes people with suspected or known mitochondrial diseases, such as MELAS or Leigh's Disease, who lack a genetic diagnosis. The r…
