Hereditary optic atrophy

This Phase 3 trial tested a gene therapy called GS010 in 98 people with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), a genetic condition that leads to rapid vision loss. Participants received injections of the therapy or a placebo into both eyes. The study measured changes in vision…

This study followed 62 people with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a rare inherited eye disease that causes vision loss, for up to 5 years after they received a single gene therapy treatment called GS010. The goal was to see if the treatment remained safe and if any vis…

This phase 3 trial tested a single injection of GS010 gene therapy in 39 people with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) who had vision loss for 6 months or less. The treatment aims to improve vision by delivering a working copy of the ND4 gene to the eye. Results measured c…

This study tested a one-time gene therapy injection, GS010, in 37 adults with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a genetic condition that causes rapid vision loss. Participants had vision loss for 6 to 12 months before treatment. The goal was to see if the therapy could im…

This study tested a gene therapy called GS010 in 19 adults with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a rare inherited eye disease that causes rapid vision loss. The main goal was to see if the treatment is safe and tolerable at different doses. The therapy uses a harmless vi…

Researchers tested an artificial intelligence program that analyzes retinal images to diagnose several nerve and brain conditions, such as optic neuropathy and brain tumors. The study used data from 693 patients with confirmed diagnoses. The goal is to create a fast triage tool f…

This completed study looked at how the social networks of caregivers affect their stress and health when caring for someone with an inherited disease. Researchers surveyed over 680 participants, including family members and formal caregivers, to understand caregiving burden and s…

This study tested whether home automation and remote monitoring can help elderly people (65+) with multiple chronic conditions live safely at home. Over 500 participants had their homes equipped with sensors that tracked health signs and sent alerts to doctors. The main goal was …

This study looked at 44 people with a rare inherited eye condition called Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) that causes vision loss. Researchers reviewed medical records and asked participants about their vision, health, and quality of life. The goal was to better understa…

This study aimed to translate and validate an Italian version of a tool that helps speech therapists assess swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) in people with neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's or ALS. Researchers tested the tool on 101 adults with such conditions to ens…

This completed study looked at how different types of brain damage—from strokes, tumors, infections, or degenerative diseases—affect thinking and memory. Researchers used brain scans (MRI) and cognitive tests in 346 patients and healthy volunteers to map which brain areas are res…
