Could a single gene shot replace monthly eye injections for wet AMD?

NCT ID NCT05657301

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a gene therapy called KH631 for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss. The treatment aims to deliver a protein that blocks harmful blood vessel growth, potentially reducing the need for frequent eye injections. About 25 adults aged 50-85 who have previously responded to standard anti-VEGF therapy will receive a one-time dose to check safety and tolerability.
