Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm
Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a specific form of "inherited optic atrophies" or "hereditary optic neuropathies." It is characterized by dysfunction of the optic nerve due to specific mutations in the mitochondrial DNA and is inherited in a non-Mendelian manner.
LHON typically presents as painless, gradual loss of central vision in young adults, affecting both eyes, with one eye being affected first followed by the other a few weeks later. In some extremely rare cases, there may be additional neurological issues such as peripheral neuropathy, postural tremor, nonspecific myopathy, and movement disorders. The condition is caused by mutations in mitochondrial DNA and is strictly passed down through maternal inheritance.
Diagnosis of LHON is based on ophthalmologic examinations, including specialized visual tests such as dilated fundus examination to detect characteristic changes in the optic disc and vascular alterations during the acute phase, visual fields assessment, electrophysiologic studies, and imaging, particularly OCT. Molecular genetic testing of mitochondrial genes associated with LHON can be used to confirm the diagnosis.
Treatment for LHON mainly involves supportive management and the use of visual aids, occupational rehabilitation, and local social services. Individuals affected by LHON should avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, as these habits produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) that impair mitochondria function.
Currently, Raxone (idebenone) is the only authorized medicinal product for treating LHON within the European Union. Other potential treatment options include Brimonidine, nutritional supplements, and ubiquinone analogs. Additionally, alternative therapies such as steroids and immunosuppressants like cyclosporine A are being explored for LHON treatment. Gene therapy holds significant promise as a potential means of treating LHON.
The Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy market is expected to witness changes in the near future due to the anticipated launch of emerging therapies between 2019 and 2032, including GS010 by GenSight and Elamipretide by Stealth Biotherapeutics. These advancements in treatment options may bring new hope for individuals affected by LHON.

- According to Shemesh et. al. (2022), Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is estimated to be the most frequent mitochondrial disease with a prevalence ranging from 1 in 27,000 in North East England to 1 in 45,000 in a meta-analysis of reports in the European population. It has a strong male preponderance (80% to 90%), and the usual age at onset is between 15 to 35 years.
- As per the NORD (2019), the prevalence of visual loss from LHON is approximately 1:50,000 people. Many carriers never suffer significant visual loss; males are about four to five times more likely than females to lose vision and be affected.
- As per Man et. al. (2016), LHON is characterized by a marked gender bias, with males more likely to become affected than females.
- According to a national epidemiological survey on LHON conducted by Takano et. al. (2022) in Japan, the number of newly diagnosed patients with LHON in 2019 was estimated to be 69, and the total number of LHON patients in Japan was estimated to be 2400, with a prevalence similar to other countries.

GS010 (lenadogene nolparvovec): GenSight
GS010 is a gene therapy-based treatment administered through a single injection into the eye, specifically targeting LHON. This therapy utilizes GenSight's proprietary Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence (MTS) technology platform, which facilitates the transportation of missing mitochondrial proteins into the mitochondrion, ultimately leading to the restoration of mitochondrial function.
GenSight has conducted two phase III studies, known as RESCUE and REVERSE, in different regions of the United States and Europe for treating LHON. Additionally, they are currently conducting a long-term follow-up study called RESCUE/REVERSE. In May 2019, the company reported encouraging data from the 96-week assessment of the REVERSE Phase III clinical trial for GS010's efficacy in LHON treatment.
Furthermore, GS010 has been granted Orphan Drug Designation in both the United States and Europe, which recognizes its potential to address a rare medical condition. As of now, the European Marketing Authorization Application for GS010 is under review, and a final recommendation is not anticipated until the third quarter of 2023.
Elamipretide: Stealth Biotherapeutics
Elamipretide, developed by Stealth Biotherapeutics, is a peptide compound with the unique ability to easily enter cell membranes and specifically target the inner mitochondrial membrane. Once inside the mitochondria, it forms a reversible bond with cardiolipin. This association between elamipretide and cardiolipin has been demonstrated to restore the normal structure of the inner mitochondrial membrane, leading to an improvement in mitochondrial function.
Stealth Biotherapeutics has successfully completed phase II clinical trials for the use of elamipretide in treating Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy. Additionally, the company is actively conducting clinical trials to explore its potential in other medical conditions, including primary mitochondrial myopathy, Barth syndrome, and various other indications.
In recognition of its potential as an innovative treatment, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Orphan Drug Designation to elamipretide in 2018 specifically for the treatment of Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy. This designation highlights the drug's importance in addressing a rare medical condition and provides incentives to support its development and availability for patients in need.
