Domain Specific Placebo Response in the Modified Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The placebo response in clinical trials in ataxias complicates outcome interpretation and potentially obscures genuine treatment effects. We analyzed placebo group data from past trials in Friedreich Ataxia and observed notable responses in appendicular items, in contrast to minimal changes in axial function, as measured by respective ...
