Observational Study to Assess Endpoint Operational Feasibility & Measurement Properties in Patients with Retinal Degeneration

Официальное название

Observational, Non-Interventional Study to Determine the Operational Feasibility and Measurement Properties of Endpoints in Patients with Retinal Degeneration

Обзор

The Vision Research and Assessment Institute (VRAI) was established with the purpose of serving as a testing facility for efficacy endpoints for patients with Low Vision. The mission of the VRAI is to enable the highest quality, standardized efficacy testing of patients with visual impairment. The VRAI facilitates the development and refinement of existing endpoints specifically for testing patients with Low Vision.

Подробное описание

The VRAI is a state-of-the-art research institute specifically for patients with low or very low vision due to diseases of the retina of the eye. The Institute is staffed by highly experienced Low Vision specialists and provides a comfortable, familiar environment for patient testing.

The study is a non-interventional prospective cohort study of up to 40 patients for each disease condition (Retinitis Pigmentosa, Choroideremia, Stargardt Macular Dystrophy, Geographic Atrophy from Age-related Macular Degeneration, X-linked Retinoschisis or other retinal dystrophies ).

Patients are scheduled for an initial visit where they are tested on a series of efficacy tests. Thereafter, patients will be invited to attend for a further visit up to two weeks and then periodically for up to one year. The objectives of the study are to evaluate how well patients use their vision, how the tests relate to activities of daily living, establish clinical meaningfulness, assess the impact of disease progression and the precision and accuracy of each test in the context of their eye condition.

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Diagnosis of bilateral retinitis pigmentosa, choroideremia, Stargardt macular dystrophy, geographic atrophy from age-related macular degeneration, X-linked retinoschisis or other retinal dystrophies confirmed from previous eye examination records
