Omaveloxolone seems to be safe and well-tolerated in adult FRDA patients in the real-life setting. No significant worsening of symptoms was observed with no signs of progression, as well as the improvement of inflammatory biomarkers after 24 weeks of treatment, but no predictive factors for the disease response have been identified. However, the short duration, and the small sample size limit the generalizability of the results. Further studies with longer observation are needed to clearly define the efficacy of omaveloxolone in FRDA.
