Blood-Based injection shows promise for slowing dry AMD

NCT ID NCT07428798

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

Summary

This study tested whether injecting a concentrated form of a patient's own blood, called platelet-rich plasma (PRP), into the eye could slow the progression of advanced dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Fourteen people with advanced dry AMD received three PRP injections in one eye, while the other eye was left untreated as a comparison. The goal was to see if the treatment could reduce the growth of damaged areas in the retina and help preserve vision.
