C-Path, FARA launch Friedreich's Ataxia Clinical Database for Development of Treatments

EurekAlert, PUBLIC RELEASE: 27-FEB-2019, Ariz. and DOWNINGTOWN, Penn., February 27, 2019 -- Critical Path Institute's (C-Path) Data Collaboration Center (DCC) and the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA) today announced the launch of the Friedreich's Ataxia Integrated Clinical Database (FAICD). The new platform will enable collaborative research and data sharing to support the understanding of natural history, potential biomarkers and clinical endpoints, and promote research into novel clinical trial design in Friedreich's ataxia (FA). By making this data available to researchers, the organizations hope to enable the development of tools that will help design and interpret efficient clinical trials -- leading to effective treatments for FA as soon as possible.
