Orphan Drugs In Development For The Treatment Of Friedreich’s Ataxia: Focus On Omaveloxolone

Friedreich’s Ataxia (FRDA) is a devastating and progressive ataxia, marked by mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Nrf2 activators such as omaveloxolone (Omav) modulate antioxidative mechanisms, and thus may be viable therapeutic agents in FRDA.
