A remotely administered study, non-randomized, non-blinded, controlled parallel assignment phase 2 trial to determine if oral inosine or inositol hexaphosphate will provide an effective long-term therapy to combat or slow neural damage progression either concurrently with existing iron chelation therapy or during the natural course of the disorder. Clinical changes in hearing, balance, and mobility, and cognition will be assessed for 36 months through patient-reported outcomes of study assigned assessments.
Capsules containing over-the-counter dietary supplement formulas of inosine 500 mg or 500 mg of inositol hexaphosphate(IP6) will be taken orally, two capsules two times per day for 36 months. Initial screening will determine patient arm assignment.
Before dosing begins, patients will submit copies of previous audiogram results (3yrs), radiology reports (3yrs), and MRI series (3yrs) if available and complete baseline assessment activities: Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) administered remotely, Timed Up, and Go (TUG), 2-Minute Walk Test (2-MWT), The Activities-specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale, iSS-QoL (custom) patient outcome reported
Assessment will take place four times: baseline, end-of-year 1 (12mo), end-of-year 2 (24mo), end-of-study (36mo).

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Slow the Rate of Clinical Decline | Deceleration of clinical decline will be quantified by evaluating three primary areas- hearing, balance and mobility, and cognition. End-of-study quantifiable slowing of the historical and year-1 mean rate of decline across all three study areas with a measurable increase on Year-3 iSS-QOL from Year-1 iSS-QOL scoring. | 36 Months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Efficacy: Rate of Adverse Event Development [Safety and Tolerability} | Therapeutic use of antioxidants through a safe, effective dose range and schedule to the extent that the risk-benefit relationship is acceptable for the patient. Evaluation will include the overall adverse event (AE) and serious AE (SAE) rate. | 36 Months |

| IP6 | Dietary Supplement | Patients will be dosed with two 500 mg capsules of IP6 twice daily for 36 months |

| Clinical Efficacy: Improved Quality of Life |
The rate of change in points on the iSS-QoL(custom) from baseline assessment to end-of-study will be scored based on 16 questions with a point range of 1-5. Higher end-of-study scores indicate greater satisfaction. |
| 36 Months |
| Clinical Efficacy: Rate of Change in Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) | The rate of change in points on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale from baseline assessment to end-of-study will be assessed for patients in each treatment group. The MoCA assesses attention and concentration, executive functions, memory, language, visuoconstructional skills, conceptual thinking, calculations, and orientation. Points (range 0-30) are awarded for the correct completion of MoCA tasks. Cognition decline will be defined as ≥ 3pt decline of total MoCA score from baseline assessment to final 36mo testing assessment. | 36 Months |
| Clinical Efficacy: Rate of Change in Hearing | The baseline audiogram will be compared to the post-study audiogram for each patient. The hearing levels in decibels against the frequency in hertz will be compared pre-study, baseline, and end-of-study for average rate-of-decline. A paired t-test will be used to determine statistical significance in the average difference in the threshold hearing level at any particular frequency. | 36 Months |
| Clinical Efficacy: Rate of Change in Mobility and Balance | The Timed Up & Go (TUG), 2-Minute Walk Test (2MWT), and Activities-specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale will be scored individually. The baseline score will be compared to the annual and end-of-study scores for each patient. A paired t-test will be used to determine statistical significance in the average difference. | 36 Months |
| Clinical Efficacy: Hemosiderin Reduction (IP6 Arm) | Visible hemosiderin deposition reduction on MRI series from baseline visit to end-of-study. MRIs will be objectively analyzed for changes in iron deposition. | 36 Months |
