E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease Yes
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
To determine whether administration of idebenone can improve visual function in Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) patients

E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
In LHON patients entering the trial with an eye still less affected than 0.5 logMAR, to determine whether administration of idebenone can mitigate further visual loss in that eye

To assess changes in Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC) and in Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL)

To assess safety and tolerability following 24 weeks' treatment with idebenone

To explore any relationship between optic nerve fibre layer thickness and LHON and its treatment with placebo and idebenone in both eyes

To explore any relationship between colour contrast sensitivity and LHON and its treatment with placebo and idebenone in both eyes (in a subset of patients)

To explore the relationship between plasma levels of idebenone and measures of efficacy and safety
