RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA

This study tests whether injecting a person's own bone marrow stem cells into or near the eye can help treat various retinal and optic nerve diseases, including age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and glaucoma. Participants receive stem cell injections via dif…

This study tests a gene therapy called ZVS203e for people with retinitis pigmentosa caused by a specific RHO gene mutation. The therapy is injected into the eye and uses a harmless virus to deliver a gene-editing tool. The trial includes 18 adults and will check safety and whethe…

This Phase 2 trial tests an experimental drug called KIO-301, injected into the eye, for people with late-stage retinitis pigmentosa who have little or no light perception. The study will give up to three doses over several weeks to 36 participants to see if it is safe and can im…

This study tests a one-time injection of retinal cells made from stem cells (DSP-3077) into the eye of 12 adults with retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic condition that causes gradual vision loss. The main goal is to see if the treatment is safe and tolerable. Participants are groupe…

This study tests the safety of a single injection of jCell (retinal progenitor cells) into the eye for people with retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic condition that causes vision loss. Sixty adults will receive either the active treatment or a sham injection, and researchers will mo…

This early-stage trial tests the safety of a new drug called ZM-02, given as an injection into one eye, in 12 adults with retinitis pigmentosa—a genetic condition that causes gradual vision loss. The main goal is to check for side effects, not to cure the disease. Researchers wil…

This study tests a gene therapy called BS01 for people with retinitis pigmentosa, an inherited eye disease that causes gradual vision loss. The therapy delivers a light-sensitive protein to cells in the retina, aiming to help them detect light again. Twenty participants with seve…

This pilot study is testing a new retinal implant called AuTNA I in 7 people with retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic condition that causes progressive vision loss. The implant, a tiny array of nanowires placed under the retina, is designed to replace damaged light-sensing cells. Res…

This study looks at whether disulfiram (Antabuse), a drug used for alcohol use disorder, can improve vision in people with retinal degeneration (like macular degeneration or retinitis pigmentosa). Researchers believe it may calm overactive cells in the retina. The study involves …

This international study aims to collect genetic and health information from 1,500 people with rare inherited retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa. It has two parts: a registry to gather genetic and vision data, and a natural history study that follows participants over tim…

This study collects skin, hair, blood, urine, or saliva samples from people with certain eye diseases (like macular degeneration) and from healthy volunteers. Researchers will turn these samples into stem cells in the lab to study how the diseases develop and to test potential ne…

This study uses a special camera called an Adaptive Optics Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) to take very detailed pictures of the retina in people with inherited retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa. Researchers will measure how the light-sensitive cells in the eye cha…

This study looks at how well people with retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt's disease see in the dark. Researchers want to find out if measuring dark adaptation can help detect and track these conditions. Healthy volunteers and people with retinal disease ag…

This registry collects information from people with inherited retinal diseases, like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Participants share their symptoms, family history, and genetic test results online. The goal is to help researchers understand these rare diseases and …

This study uses special cameras to take ultra-detailed pictures of the back of the eye in people with retinal diseases like macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. Researchers aim to develop new ways to diagnose and track these conditions by measuring cell density and func…

This study uses a special camera called an adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope to take incredibly detailed pictures of the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. Researchers will compare images from healthy people and those with eye diseases like Star…

This study follows 45 adults with retinitis pigmentosa caused by EYS gene mutations to understand how the disease progresses over 48 months. Researchers will measure vision changes using eye exams and genetic testing. The goal is to identify reliable ways to track the disease, wh…

This study enrolls 25 people with severe retinal diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease to test new ways of measuring visual function. Researchers will evaluate how well participants can perform various vision tests, such as navigating obstacles or detecting lig…

This study tests a high-resolution imaging system to see tiny structures in the eye that routine tools cannot detect. Researchers will scan 1,200 people with various eye conditions and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand diseases like glaucoma, diabetes, and reti…
