Resumo: Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction results in the production of an abnormally high amount of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which results in redox imbalance and glutathione deficiency. Therapeutics such as EPI-743 (?-tocotrienol quinone) and RP103 (cysteamine bitartrate) have the theoretical potential to improve redox imbalance by increasing intracellular glutathione and are currently under investigation in multiple clinical trials. This review provides an update on the use of these compounds in clinical trials related to primary and secondary mitochondrial disorders. These clinical trials have not only provided hope to affected patients and their families and caregivers, but also will serve as important stepping stones for further studies as our understanding of mitochondrial disease pathogenesis continues to improve.
