Exclusion criteria

  • of the subject from participating in this study as determined by the Sponsor (i.e., an AE considered clinically significant by the Sponsor regardless of whether it met SAE criteria and regardless of CTCAE grade); d) Withdraw from participation in a previous study of CTI-1601 for any reason.
  • Subject has a HbA1c less than or equal to 7.0%.
  • Subject must demonstrate sufficient dexterity and visual acuity to prepare and self-administer SC injections of CTI-1601 QD or is able to identify a caregiver who will be trained and committed to prepare and administer the daily injections. If subject is taking permitted concomitant medication(s), subject must have been on a stable dose and frequency of medication(s) over the past 28 days prior to the initiation of Screening; however, subjects taking niacin and resveratrol must have been on a stable dose and frequency for 90 days prior to the initiation of Screening \- Subjects who are currently receiving omaveloxolone or intend to receive omaveloxolone are permitted in the study but must either receive CTI-1601 for 3 months prior to their first dose of omaveloxolone or receive omaveloxolone for 3 months prior to their first dose of CTI-1601. Exclusion Criteria: Subjects are excluded from the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are met:
  • Subjects who are confirmed as compound heterozygous (GAA repeat expansion on only one allele) for FRDA.
  • Subject has any condition, disease, or situation, including a cardiac condition or disease, that in the opinion of the PI, could confound the results of the study or put the subject at undue risk, making participation inadvisable.
  • Subject used any investigational drug (other than CTI-1601) or device within 90 days prior to Screening.

Biotin supplementation ≤30 mcg/day is permitted if taken at a stable dose and frequency for at least 28 days prior to Screening and there is a commitment from the subject to maintain the biotin dose throughout the study (due to interference with assays).
  • Subject uses more than 3 grams of acetaminophen daily.
  • Subject receives medication that requires SC injection in the abdomen or thigh.
  • Subject is unable to discontinue medications that have not been at a stable dose and frequency for at least 28 days prior to Screening.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
