Filter by:This study will be conducted following Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. Eligible subjects will be consented to return for scheduled study visits for this study following their completion in study NTXMCO-002 (RESTORE). They will not receive a second treatment with MCO-010 (or a repeated sham injection) in this study
Background: Pyrimidine and purine metabolism disorders (DPPMs) affect how the body metabolizes chemicals called pyrimidines and purines. DPPMs can cause dysfunctions throughout the body, especially in the brain, blood, kidneys, and immune system. People with DPPMs might have no symptoms, mild symptoms, or they may have severe, chronic symptoms, that can be fatal. DPPMs are not well understood, and researchers want to learn more about what causes them and how to treat them. Objective: To learn more about factors that affect DPPMs by comparing test results from affected, uaffected family members, and healthy people. Eligibility: Three types of participants are needed: people aged 1 month and older with DPPMs; their family members who do not have DPPMs; and healthy volunteers. Design: Participants with DPPMs will come to the clinic once a year; some may be asked to come more often. At each visit, all affected participants will have a physical exam and give samples of blood, urine, saliva, and stool. Depending on their symptoms, they may also have other procedures, such as: Swabs of their skin and inside the mouth. Tests of their heart, kidney, brain, and nerve function. Questionnaires about what they eat. Dental exams, and exams of their hearing and vision. Tests of their learning ability. Monitoring of their physical activity. Imaging scans. Photographs of their face and body. These tests may be spread over up to 7 days. Affected participants may remain in the study indefinitely if they wish to. Healthy volunteers and family members will have 1 study visit. They will have a physical exam and may be asked to give blood, urine, saliva, and stool samples.
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 purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of bilateral subretinal delivery of adeno-associated virus vector with a serotype 5 capsid human rhodopsin kinase promoter. retinitis pigmentosa guanosine triphosphatase regulator (AAV5-hRKp.RPGR).
This study "A Long-Term Follow-Up Study in Subjects Who Received an Adeno-Associated Viral Vector Serotype 2 Containing the Multi-Characteristic Opsin Gene (vMCO-I) Administered Via Intravitreal Injection" is an observational study and will be conducted following Good Clinical Practice (GCP)- International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. Eligible subjects satisfying all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled. All subject who completed the parent clinical study (NSCT/CT/18/01) will undergo safety and efficacy assessments up to 5 years post study drug injection
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.
The study will perform UC-MSCs and CM transplantation. There are two groups with different dosages. The first group will be transplanted with 1.5 million cells, meanwhile, the second group is 5 million cells. Each group consists of 30 subjects. All groups will be transplanted via the peribulbar route. All groups will be observed until six months.
A clinical trial of gene therapy for patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP).
The objective of the study is to evaluate: 1. Safety of AuTNA I for subretinal implantation in patients with retinitis pigmentosa; 2. Efficacy of AuTNA I for subretinal implantation in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
Typically, clinical research participation favors a specific demographic group, and little research exists on how trial attributes affect participation. As such, this study seeks to analyze data from different demographic groups and check for recurring trends that could provide valuable insights for future retinitis pigmentosa patients.
