Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify ways to follow progression of Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) and be able to measure changes over time in children with FA. Participants will have biannual visits to observe how the disease progresses over time and determine the rate of progression. Funding Source- Food and Drug Administration Office of Orphan Products Development (FDA OOPD).

Primary Outcome

The Friedreich Ataxia Rating Scale (FARS) measures neurological function in FA. It is a composite measure reflecting neural substrates with five-subscales (sections A to E), measuring bulbar function, upper limb coordination, lower limb coordination, peripheral nerves, and upright stability. The modified FARS (mFARS) shortens the bulbar subscale to 2 items and excludes the peripheral nerve subscale. Total scoring is a summation of subscales, with a maximum score of 93 points for mFARS and 125 f
