Filter by:This study is a proof of principal, to evaluate a safety and efficacy of a prototype suprachoroidal retinal implant.
The objective of this natural history study is to gain a better understanding of the progression of choroideremia (CHM) and add to the knowledge base for this rare disease.
The purpose of this study is to understand the rate of progression of all stages of choroideremia using a variety of assessments performed in the clinic including visual field measures, specialized photography of the eye and participant-reported visual problems
An open label monocentric phase II trial in adult males with a clinical phenotype of choroideremia and a confirmed molecular diagnosis of a null mutation in the gene encoding REP1 to assess the anatomical and functional outcomes, as well as the safety of a single subretinal injection of rAAV2.REP1 in 6 subjects with genetically confirmed choroideremia for up to 24 months.
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the Intelligent Retinal Implants System (IRIS V2). Blind patient suffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa, Cone Rod Dystrophy, or Choroideremia are implanted with an Intelligent Retinal Implant Systeme. All subjects undergo ophthalmological examinations in predefined intervals after implantation. Ophthalmological examinations include funduscopy, slit lamp examination and OCT. All adverse events are recorded and analyzed. Efficacy is measured using functional vision and visual function tests before and after implantation as well as with the system on and system off.
Phase II gene therapy study, involving a total of 6 male patients with choroideremia. The study will be conducted at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami. Patients will be required to attend a total of 11 study visits over a 24 month period with an additional 3 year follow-up.
The My Retina Tracker® Registry is sponsored by the Foundation Fighting Blindness and is for people affected by one of the rare inherited retinal degenerative diseases studied by the Foundation. It is a patient-initiated registry accessible via a secure on-line portal at www.MyRetinaTracker.org. Affected individuals who register are guided to create a profile that captures their perspective on their retinal disease and its progress; family history; genetic testing results; preventive measures; general health and interest in participation in research studies. The participants may also choose to ask their clinician to add clinical measurements and results at each clinical visit. Participants are urged to update the information regularly to create longitudinal records of their disease, from their own perspective, and their clinical progress. The overall goals of the Registry are: to better understand the diversity within the inherited retinal degenerative diseases; to understand the prevalence of the different diseases and gene variants; to assist in the establishment of genotype-phenotype relationships; to help understand the natural history of the diseases; to help accelerate research and development of clinical trials for treatments; and to provide a tool to investigators that can assist with recruitment for research studies and clinical trials.
The assessment of the efficacy (with respect to preservation of visual function and retinal structure) and safety of a single subretinal injection of AAV2.REP1 in participants with a confirmed diagnosis of choroideremia, as evaluated by various functional and anatomical outcomes measured over a number of time points up to 24 months post-treatment.
This clinical study evaluates the safety and tolerability of AAV2-hCHM in participants with Choroideremia gene mutations.
A project has been developed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to enable male patients with choroideremia to access a clinical trial that replaces the defective gene with a normal copy. This experiment is designed to show that the transfer of a normal copy of the gene to the eye is not only safe but may improve the sight of patients. Only Canadian subjects who meet criteria will be recruited.
