One-Shot gene injection aims to halt blindness in rare eye disease

NCT ID NCT04671433

Summary

This study tested a one-time gene therapy injection for people with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP), a genetic condition that damages the retina and leads to vision loss. The goal was to see if delivering a corrected gene directly into the eye could slow or stop disease progression and improve functional vision. The trial involved 105 participants and measured their ability to navigate a mobility course and other vision tests over one year.
