Safety and Efficacy Study of Novel Gene Therapy ZM-02 for Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients

Официальное название

Prospective, Dose-Escalating, Investigator Initiated Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of ZM-02 in Retinitis Pigmentosa

Обзор

This is zM-02's safety, tOlerability, and efficacy in retinitis pigmentOsa first-in-humaN study (MOON). This trial is meant to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ZM-02 in Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients. Unilateral intravitreal injections (IVT) will be given into the subject's Study Eye.

Подробное описание

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the most common inherited retinal disease. Individuals affected by RP often experience progressive visual impairment, potentially leading to legal blindness. There is currently no established effective clinical treatment available. We developed an innovative adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapy for individuals with RP, regardless of their causative mutations. Eight to twelve subjects with RP will be recruited and six to nine of them will receive a single unilateral intravitreal injection of ZM-02 at ascending doses, while two to three receive sham injections as the control group.

Вмешательства

• Препарат ZM-02-L
  rAAV-PsCatCh2.0 intravitreal injection of low dose
• Препарат ZM-02-H
  rAAV-PsCatCh2.0 intravitreal injection of high dose
• Процедура ZM-02-S
  sham intravitreal injection of ZM-02 (not actual injection)
