Mitochondrial Myopathies clinical trials
Below are recruiting mitochondrial myopathies clinical trials, each written for real people, not researchers. We’re tracking 13 recruiting studies, each written for real people, not researchers, below.
Recruiting studies
- NCT04086329RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an oxygen sensor during exercise in muscle disease
This early (Phase 1) study checks whether a tiny oxygen-sensing device works reliably while people with mitochondrial muscle disease (and some healthy volunteers) ride a stationary bike. The goal is to see if the sensor can measure oxygen use during exercise and help future monitoring or research.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT07450690Recruiting
Exercise training for muscle function in mitochondrial myopathy
This study tests whether exercise training can improve muscle function in adults with mitochondrial myopathy, a condition that affects how muscles produce energy. Participants will follow an exercise program to see if it helps their muscle strength and daily activities.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05653544Recruiting
Study tracks symptoms in primary mitochondrial muscle conditions
This study observes people with primary mitochondrial muscle diseases over time to better understand how symptoms change. It may help improve future care by learning patterns of muscle weakness, fatigue, and related complications.
Madrid, MadridAges 16 years+ - NCT05569122RecruitingPhase 1
Studying an MRI contrast method in mitochondrial muscle disease
This Phase 1 study tests a special MRI approach (using a contrast agent) to better measure changes in muscles in people with mitochondrial diseases. It also includes some healthy volunteers and other critically ill patients to compare results and check safety.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 10–60 - NCT05346627Recruiting
Home training with video coaching for mitochondrial muscle disease
This study tests whether personalized home exercise plus video check-ins are safe and helpful for people with mitochondrial myopathy. It aims to improve function and comfort while checking that the program is tolerable over time.
Nice, Alpes MaritimesAges 18 years+ - NCT07478172Recruiting
Electrical muscle stimulation exercise for neuromuscular disease
This study tests whether whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (using small electrodes on the skin) can help adults with certain neuromuscular diseases exercise and improve muscle strength. It may be an option if you can stand for about 15 minutes at a time and have some muscle strength left.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06819683RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new oxygen sensor in people with and without mitochondrial myopathy
This study tests a tiny sensor that measures oxygen levels in muscle. It will help researchers understand how oxygen is used during exercise. If you have mitochondrial myopathy or are a healthy volunteer, you might be able to join.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT05250375Recruiting
Study of mitochondrial muscle diseases over time
This natural history study follows children and adults with suspected or confirmed mitochondrial myopathy to better understand symptoms and how the condition changes. It may also include healthy participants to compare test results and improve future treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–100 years - NCT04920812Recruiting
Testing multi-sample methods to diagnose mitochondrial muscle disease
This study looks for the cause of suspected mitochondrial diseases by combining multiple lab tests on muscle and skin samples, plus genetic testing results. If your current gene tests didn’t find an answer, this could help researchers learn what might be causing your condition.
Nice, CHU de NICEAges Any age - NCT05554835Recruiting
Mitochondrial disease registry and history study
This study collects information about people who have a suspected or confirmed mitochondrial disease. It aims to better understand how the disease looks over time, which can help future treatments.
InnsbruckAges Any age - NCT05199740Recruiting
Testing treatment for people with certain mitochondrial DNA changes
This study looks at how much “mitochondrial DNA” mutation is in your body and what that means for people with specific genetic changes in muscle. It may help researchers better understand the condition and how to track response over time.
MaastrichtAges 18 years+ - NCT06754098RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two drugs for TK2 deficiency
This trial tests two experimental drugs, Doxecitin and Doxribthymine, for adults with a rare genetic condition called TK2 deficiency that causes muscle weakness and breathing problems. The goal is to see if these drugs can slow or stop the disease.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mitochondrial myopathies?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13 recruiting mitochondrial myopathies studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a mitochondrial myopathies trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a mitochondrial myopathies trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
