Filter by:The Phase 1 safety study of VOY-101 comprises of escalating dose Cohorts, followed by a Phase 2a.
Glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinitis pigmentosa, RP, diabetic retinopathy (DR) are the most common blinding eye diseases in the world. Vision and visual field are often severely impaired, quality of life is reduced, and personal and family burdens are heavy. This kind of low vision people, can use visual AIDS and other instruments for visual rehabilitation training, maximize the function of residual vision, improve the quality of life. Beyes, HOLA, Acesight and OXSIGHT are among the latest eyeglasses devices that are expected to improve the quality of life for people with low vision. This research group intends to recruit advanced patients with primary glaucoma, AMD, RP, DR and other common blinding eye diseases who visited Zhongshan Ophthalmology Center of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2021 to December 2022 to study the changes of visual function and quality of life after wearing this new type of head-worn visual aids, and analyze relevant factors combined with clinical data. To evaluate the effect and influencing factors of the new head-mounted visual AIDS on patients, and provide theoretical basis for subsequent clinical research.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate effects of consecutive Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation in dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation effective in decreasing drusen volume in patients affected by dry AMD? - Does Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation increase visual acuity and contrast sensitivity in patients affected by dry AMD? Participants will be randomly assigned to a treatment or a sham group. Treatment consists in two cycles with two phases each: - 1st phase: 300 seconds of continuous Yellow light with eyes closed + 60 seconds of pulsed Yellow light with eyes opened; - 2d phase: 300 seconds of continuous Red light with eyes closed + 60 seconds of pulsed Red light with eyes opened. Cycle 1 consists of 8 sessions (two PBM per week for 4 weeks) and cycle 2 consists of 6 sessions (two PBM per week for 3 weeks). Researchers will compare patients in the treatment group to those in the sham group to evaluate differences in objective signs and subjective symptoms of dry AMD.
Observation of findings associated with AMD
This project intends to collect participant somatic cells to prepare autologous induced pluripotent stem cell-derived retinal cells for future cell therapy of age-related macular degeneration patient.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of NG101 AAV gene therapy administered by subretinal injections into a single selected eye as a single selected dose for patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD).
This study is a biomarker evaluation study in patients with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study evaluates microperimetry (fundus-controlled perimetry) and optical coherence tomography imaging for assessing changes in retinal sensitivity and anatomy over time.
Early atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD) represents an important time window in the course of so far untreatable atrophic AMD, as patients typically experience only some degree of visual dysfunction, while being at significant risk for marked further loss of vision. To allow the precise evaluation of upcoming therapeutic interventions, a better understanding of the manifestation and variable disease progression is needed. This project aims to investigate refined tools to detect and monitor early atrophic AMD more accurately, including the impact on visual dysfunction and quality of life.
The objective of this single center study is to determine the safety of the smaller incision, new generation (SING), implantable miniature telescope (IMT) in a small sample of patients with moderate-severe central vision loss due to late-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in an Israeli Cohort
This clinical trial aims to test the safety and feasibility of using a non-invasive ultrasound device to stimulate retinal nerve cells and restore vision in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Previous studies have shown that artificial stimulation, such as electric and optic stimulations, can partially restore vision, but these methods are invasive and pose surgical risks. The study aims to develop a non-invasive method for retinal stimulation. The investigators will follow the FDA guidelines to limit the ultrasound power and adhere to all clinical trial regulations to ensure all participants' safety. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: - Is using high-frequency ultrasound safe using a wearable device for localized retinal neural activity stimulation? - Does the stimulation through the device restore vision in patients with age-related macular degeneration? Participants in this study will be asked to undergo Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scanning before and after the ultrasound stimulation to evaluate the device's safety. Then, they will receive five stimulation-rest cycles and complete a questionnaire to report what they see and how they feel during the device's operation.
