New drug aims to ease fatigue in mitochondrial disease
NCT ID NCT05650229
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 2 trial tests whether KL1333 can reduce fatigue and improve leg strength in adults with primary mitochondrial disease, a genetic condition that affects energy production. About 180 participants will receive either KL1333 or a placebo twice daily for 48 weeks. The study measures changes in fatigue symptoms and physical function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- KL1333
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a treatment that reduces fatigue and improves daily function for people with primary mitochondrial disease.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 180 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It is also a placebo-controlled study, meaning some may not receive the active drug.
