Study design 3 periods

#TitleAllocationBlindingRoles blindedArms
1 Screening Period
After patients consent, patients will undergo Screening procedures as described in the protocol. Patients who complete Screening and continue to meet all trial requirements, including all Inclusion Criteria and none of the Exclusion Criteria, may be randomized at the Baseline Visit (Day 1) and enter the Treatment Period. Screening Period lasting for a maximum of 28 days.
Not Applicable None
2 Masked Treatment Period
The Treatment Period begins on the day of the Baseline Visit (Day 1) and lasts for approximately 96 weeks. At the Baseline Visit (Day 1), following completion of all Baseline procedures as described in the protocol, including reconfirming of eligibility, patients will be randomized 2:1 to treatment with either elamipretide or placebo. Patients (and caregivers if needed) will be provided with a dosing diary and trained on the procedure for administration of the IMP and recording of the location and time of the IMP administration daily in the dosing diary. Subject (or trained caregiver) will administer IMP at the clinical trial site, unless otherwise specified.
Randomised Controlled Double [{"id":159537,"code":1,"name":"Subject"},{"id":159536,"code":2,"name":"Investigator"}] Elamipretide: Patients on this arm will receive treatment with elamipretide for 96 weeks after randomisation
Placebo: Patients on this arm will receive treatment with placebo for 96 weeks after randomisation
3 Follow-up Period
At the Week 96 Visit, patients will have a 4 week safety follow-up until week 100.
Not Applicable None Safety Follow-up: The 4-week Safety Follow-Up Period will begin after completion of the Week 96 Visit. Patients will return to the clinical trial site at Week 100 for final safety assessments, as described in the protocol and return used and unused IMP not previously returned.
