Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this phase 3 multi-center, open-label extension study is to evaluate the long-term safety of ACTIMMUNE® (interferon-γ 1b) in participants with Friedreich's Ataxia.


Clinical Trial Description

Participants who complete 26 weeks of blinded treatment in HZNP-ACT-301 (NCT02415127), will be eligible to enter this 6-month study. All participants will receive ACTIMMUNE® 3 times a week (TIW) for 26 weeks. In order to maintain the study blind in HZNP-ACT-301 (NCT02415127), all participants in this open-label extension study will undergo ACTIMMUNE® titration, regardless if they received ACTIMMUNE® or placebo in HZNP-ACT-301 (NCT02415127). The Week 26 Visit from HZNP-ACT-301 (NCT02415127) will serve as the Baseline Visit (Day 1) for this study. During the treatment period, additional clinic visits are scheduled at Weeks 4, 13, and 26; in between clinic visits, participants (and/or caregivers) will be monitored via emails/phone calls on a weekly basis until participants reach their maximum tolerated dose, and on a monthly basis thereafter. ;
