A long-term extension study to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of cysteamine bitartrate delayed-release capsules (RP103) in children with inherited mitochondrial diseases who previously enrolled into study RP103-MITO-001 (NCT02023866).
Patients with inherited mitochondrial diseases associated with nuclear or mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mutations that impair the respiratory chain. These include, but are not limited to the following clinical syndromes: Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy; myoclonic epilepsy and ragged-red fibers (MERFF); mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like syndrome (MELAS); Kearn-Sayre syndrome; subacute necrotizing encephalopathy (Leigh Syndrome); polymerase gamma (POLG)-related disorders (Alpers-Huttenlocher Syndrome, Autosomal Dominant Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia, Autosomal Recessive Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia, Childhood Myocerebrohepatopathy Spectrum Disorders, Myoclonic Epilepsy Myopathy Sensory Ataxia, POLG-Related Ataxia Neuropathy Spectrum Disorders); Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE), also called myoneurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome or polyneuropathy-ophthalmoplegia-leukoencephalopathy- Intestinal pseudoobstruction (POLIP) syndrome; others, e.g., mitochondrial cardiomyopathies and other syndromes due to multiple mitochondrial DNA deletions. Patients completing study RP103-MITO-001 (NCT02023866) are eligible for enrollment into the extension study RP103-MITO-002 if all inclusion and exclusion criteria are fulfilled. Subjects continue on the last total daily dose of cysteamine bitartrate delayed-release capsules taken during RP103-MITO-001. Dose-adjustments are permitted. Study with completed results acquired from Horizon in 2024.

Change in Newcastle Paediatric Mitochondrial Disease Scale (NPMDS) Score
The NPMDS evaluates the progression of mitochondrial disease in pediatric patients in 4 domains: I - Current Function (vision, hearing, communication, feeding, and mobility) with scores ranging from 0 to 21; II - System Specific Involvement (seizures, encephalopathy, bleeding diathesis or coagulation defects, gastrointestinal, endocrine, respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, liver, and blood) with scores ranging from 0 to 30. III - Current Clinical Assessment (growth and development over past 6 months, vision, strabismus and eye movement, myopathy, ataxia, pyramidal, extrapyramidal, and neuropathy) with scores ranging from 0 to 28; IV - Quality of Life with scores ranging from 0 to 25. For sections I-III, higher scores reflect more severe disease. For Section IV, a higher score reflects a lower quality of life.
Time frame: Baseline, every 3 months and Study Exit (up to 24 Months)
Change Over Time in Two of the Most Pre-eminent Symptoms
The two pre-eminent symptoms previously identified in study RP103-MITO-001 were to be continued to be assessed during the extension study. Symptoms included myopathy, dystonia, ataxia, retarded motor development, reduced activities of daily living, and vision.
Time frame: Baseline, every 3 months and Study Exit (up to 24 Months)
Change Over Time in Pharmacodynamic Biomarkers
Change from baseline in glutathione, glutathione disulfide, and lactate analyses were not performed as the study was prematurely terminated.
Time frame: Baseline, every 3 months and Study Exit (up to 24 Months)
