ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The authors carried out a 1-year, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of idebenone in 29 patients with Friedreich ataxia."5.10Idebenone treatment in Friedreich patients: one-year-long randomized placebo-controlled trial. ( Di Donato, S; Fiorentini, C; Marano, L; Mariotti, C; Solari, A; Torta, D, 2003)
"Low-quality evidence from two small, published, randomised controlled trials neither support nor refute an effect from antioxidants (idebenone, or a combination of coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E) on the neurological status of people with Friedreich ataxia, measured with a validated neurological rating scale."4.93Pharmacological treatments for Friedreich ataxia. ( Brassington, R; Fahey, M; Kearney, M; Orrell, RW; Pandolfo, M, 2016)
"More than 10 studies used idebenone in the treatment of Friedreich ataxia but only one small RCT, with 29 participants, using the synthetic antioxidant idebenone 5 mg/kg, fulfilled the selection criteria for this review."4.88Antioxidants and other pharmacological treatments for Friedreich ataxia. ( Fahey, M; Kearney, M; Orrell, RW; Pandolfo, M, 2012)

"To compare the efficacy of 6 months' treatment with 2 different doses of idebenone with that of placebo on Activities of Daily Living (ADL) assessed by the ADL scale of the Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (FARS)~score 0 to 36, higher score indicates greater impairment" (NCT00537680)

Change in Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (FARS) Scores From Baseline to Week 24

"To compare the efficacy of 6 months' treatment with 2 different doses of idebenone with that of placebo on neurological function as assessed by the Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (FARS)~FARS consists of a 25 manoeuvre exam along with 4 quantitative performance measures. The neurological exam covers bulbar function, upper limb coordination, lower limb coordination, peripheral nervous system function, deep tendon reflexes, stability and gait. The use of FARS has been recently validated as a sensitive scale for this population.~The FARS exam scores can be added to make a total score ranging from 0 to 159. A higher score indicates a greater level of disability.~Calculation details FARS score at week 24 minus FARS score baseline" (NCT00537680)
