Filter by:This is an international, multicenter study with two components: Registry - A standardized genetic screening and a prospective, standardized, cross-sectional clinical data collection - Enrollment is open to all genes on the RD Rare Gene List Natural History Study - A prospective, standardized, longitudinal Natural History Study - Enrollment opens gene-by-gene, based on funding and within-gene Registry enrollment The study objectives are as follows. Registry Objectives 1. Genotype Characterization 2. Cross-Sectional Phenotype Characterization (within gene) 3. Establish a Link to My Retina Tracker Registry (MRTR) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes Natural History Study Objectives 1. Natural History (within gene) 2. Structure-Function Relationship (within gene) 3. Risk Factors for Progression (within gene) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes
The purpose of this study is to characterize the natural history through temporal systemic evaluation of subjects identified with PRPF31 mutation-associated retinal dystrophy, also called retinitis pigmentosa type 11, or RP11. Assessments will be completed to measure and evaluate structural and functional visual changes including those impacting patient quality of life associated with this inherited retinal condition and observing how these changes evolve over time.
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal degeneration caused by one of several mistakes in the genetic code. Such mistakes are called mutations. The mutations cause degeneration of rod photoreceptors which are responsible for vision in dim illumination resulting in night blindness. After rod photoreceptors are eliminated, gradual degeneration of cone photoreceptors occurs resulting in gradual constriction of side vision that eventually causes tunnel vision. Oxidative stress contributes to cone degeneration. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) reduces oxidative stress and in animal models of RP it slowed cone degeneration. In a phase I clinical trial in patients with RP, NAC taken by month for 6 months caused some small improvements in two different vision tests suggesting that long-term administration of NAC might slow cone degeneration in RP. NAC Attack is a clinical trial being conducted at many institutions in the US, Canada, Mexico, and Europe designed to determine if taking NAC for several years provides benefit in patients with RP.
This clinical trial aims to study the efficacy of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells and their exosomes in the treatment of retinitis pigmentosa. The participants will be randomized into 3 groups. Functional and structural parameters will be compared before and after the injections and also will be compared among the groups to reveal whether stem cell and their exosomes are more effective than placebo.
This is an open-label, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of EA-2353 in subjects with RP. Unilateral intravitreal injections (IVT) will be administered into the subject's Study Eye. There will be up to 4 cohorts.
An open-label Phase II clinical trial, 8 (eight) subjects with retinitis pigmentosa due to rhodopsin mutations (including P23H) will be identified and treated with serial intravitreal injections of ADX-2191 in the worse seeing eye. Ocular structure and function will be evaluated.
The objective of the study is to collect adaptive optics (AO) retinal images from human subjects with outer retinal diseases (diseases of the outer retina including photoreceptor, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), basement membrane or choroidal pathologies) to develop new diagnostic methods, biomarkers, and clinical endpoints.
The goal of this project is to quantify and computationally model the perceptual experiences of Argus II retinal prosthesis patients. The investigators will produce visual percepts in patients either by directly stimulating electrodes or by asking them to view a computer or projector screen and using standard FDA-approved stimulation protocols (as is standardly used for their devices) to convert the computer or projector screen image into pulse trains on their electrodes. Performance of patients will be compared to that of sighted control subjects viewing a simulation of the vision generated by Argus II in virtual reality.
A phase I/II dose-escalating study of the safety, tolerability and efficacy of KIO-301 administered intravitreally to patients with retinitis pigmentosa and choroideremia (ABACUS). Open label.
Rare ocular diseases (ROD) are a heterogeneous group of ocular diseases that affect very few people and, generally, for which no tretament is available. An important subgroup of these diseases are inherited retinal degenerations. In this study we focus on understanding the natural history of different ROD that affect the posterior segment.
