Gene therapy shot for dry AMD shows promise in early trial
NCT ID NCT04437368
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a single injection of a gene therapy called GT005 in 98 people with geographic atrophy, an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration that causes vision loss. The goal was to see if the treatment could slow the growth of damaged areas in the eye and check for side effects. The trial was stopped early, so results are limited.
