Filter by:In this Phase 1 open-labeled prospective study, one eye of each participant with vision loss from retinitis pigmentosa will be administered intravitreal injection of autologous CD34+ stem cells harvested from bone marrow. Each participant will be examined serially for 6 months after study injection to determine safety and feasibility of this intervention.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravitreal injection of virally-carried Multi-Characteristic Opsin I (vMCO-I)
The development of new oculometry techniques allows fine and dynamic measurements of pupillary diameter and use in routine clinical practice. The preliminary results obtained with innovative devices on healthy sjuets make it possible to envisage a clinical study on a population of patients suffering from retinal pathologies. This is a "proof of concept" study, which, if the expected results are confirmed, will make it possible to consider a study on a larger population, as well as the industrial development of a commercial device.
The purpose of the study is to identify a cohort of Japanese participants with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) associated with pathogenic variants in the retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator (RPGR) gene and to investigate their associated phenotype.
Blindness can be caused by many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia and glaucoma. Without timely diagnosis and adequate medical intervention, the visual impairment can become a great burden on individuals as well as the society. It is estimated that China has 110 million patients under the attack of diabetes, 180 million patients with hypertension, 120 million patients suffering from high myopia and 200 million people over 60 years old, which suggest a huge population at the risk of blindness. Despite of this crisis in public health, our society has no more than 3,000 ophthalmologists majoring in fundus oculi disease currently. As most of them assembling in metropolitan cities, health system in this field is frail in primary hospitals. Owing to this unreasonable distribution of medical resources, providing medical service to hundreds of millions of potential patients threatened with blindness is almost impossible. To solve this problem, this software (MCS) was developed as a computer-aided diagnosis to help junior ophthalmologists to detect 13 major retina diseases from color fundus photographs. This study has been designed to validate the safety and efficiency of this device.
The study will provides the enrollment of patients with genetic retinal dystrophies with primary rod impairment and dry age-related macular degeneration (Geographic type) A subretinal injection of umbilical cord blood platelet-rich plasma (CB-PRP) will be performed only in one eye, the other eye will be considered as a control group. A complete morpho-functional ophthalmological evaluation will be performed in all patients at each control.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety of repeat injection of human retinal progenitor cells (jCell) in adult subjects with RP that have previously been treated with jCell.
Rationale: In preparation for treatment with gene therapy, this study is being conducted in order to investigate the natural history of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies (IRDs) due to mutations in RPE65 gene. Such a study will help identify suitable patients for therapeutic intervention. Methodology: This is a multicenter retrospective, descriptive chart review study designed to assess retinal structure and function in subjects with IRDs due to mutation in RPE65 gene by visual acuity, visual field measurements, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), and a number of other vision-related assessments.
The proposed project seeks to provide object recognition as a feature in a retinal implant system. Participants will be able to direct an object recognition application to find a desired object in the field of view of the head-mounted camera, and to direct the participant's view towards it through the presentation of a recognizable icon. A prototype system will be developed and evaluated in human subjects in phase I. A full system implementation and a second phase of the trial will be completed in phase II.
The study will perform UC-MSCs and CM transplantation. The first group will be injected by UCMSC+NaCl. the 2nd group will be injected by UC-MSC+CM. the 3rd group will be injected by CM. Each group consists of 6 subjects. all groups will be transplanted via peribulbar route. the dosage of UC-MSC is 1 million cells for each subject. All groups will be observed until 6 months.
