The purpose of this study is to characterize the disease progression of confirmed OPA1 mutation-associated autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA) by evaluating the changes in ocular structural and functional outcomes.
This is a multi-center, longitudinal, prospective, observational natural history study of patients with confirmed OPA1 mutation (haploinsufficiency) associated ADOA. The study will be conducted at up to 10 sites across the United States, Australia and Europe. Each participant's medical record will be reviewed for historical information, and clinical data will be recorded in a secure database. Natural history data will be collected prospectively and will include ophthalmic exams, imaging studies and electrophysiological testing. Assessments will be conducted as described in this protocol approximately every 3 months in the first year and every 6 months in the second year of the study after each participant's baseline visit

Best-corrected High Contrast Visual Acuity (HCVA)
Best-corrected high contrast visual acuity (HCVA) for both distance and near will be evaluated using the ETDRS electronic visual acuity charts and the MNRead acuity chart
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Low Contrast Visual Acuity (LCVA)
Low contrast visual acuity (LCVA) for both distance and near will be evaluated using the low contrast ETDRS letter chart
Time frame: Screening through Year 2
Contrast Sensitivity
Contrast sensitivity recorded using the Pelli-Robson chart
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Color Vision
Color vision tested using the Hardy Rand Rittler test
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Retinal Thickness
Change retinal thickness is measured using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), as measured by the central reading center (SD-OCT), as measured by the central reading center
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Ellipsoid Zone (EZ) Volume
Change in EZ volume measured using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), as measured by the central reading center

Visual field sensitivity measured by automated static perimetry
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Multifocal Visual Evoked Potential (mfVEP)
The waveform of the evoked responses, the latency, and amplitude are analyzed.
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Pregnancy Test
A urine human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) pregnancy conducted in all women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) \> 12 years of age at baseline. If a urine test is positive, the DARC procedure will not be performed.
Time frame: Baseline
DARC (Detection of Apoptosing Retinal Cells)
The DARC test is conducted using an IV injection of fluorescently labelled Annexin V (called ANX776). Individual stressed and apoptotic retinal cells are visible as white spots on the image for DARC count, which are quantified using a confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope using the indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) settings.
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Flavoprotein Fluorescence (FPF)
Functional imaging of mitochondria using Flavoprotein Fluorescence.
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Retinal Abnormalities
Ultrawide fundus photography is conducted OU to assess retinal abnormalities
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
Adverse Events (AEs)
Frequency of ocular adverse events (AEs)
Time frame: Screening through Year 2
Genomic Analysis for Study Eligibility
OPA1 genetic testing at screening visit
Time frame: Screening
Vital signs
Vital signs assessments (pulse rate, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate) performed in participants undergoing the DARC assessment only.
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
To determine the outcome measures that are associated with ADOA disease progression.
To understand the disease progression in participants with confirmed OPA1 mutation-associated ADOA determined by changes in structural and functional markers from the primary outcome within the study period.
Time frame: Baseline through Year 2
