500-Patient study aims to map rare eye Disease's natural course
NCT ID NCT07636590
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study watches 500 people with limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) to see how the disease changes over time. Researchers will track vision, eye comfort, and physical eye changes using questionnaires and tests. No new treatments are given—the goal is simply to learn more about LSCD's natural history and how it is currently managed.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * A photopic BCVA in the prospective study eye(s) of ≤ 70 letters at the Screening and Day 1 visits AND a change of ≤ 10 letters in photopic BCVA at Day 1 compared to the Screening Visit * Qualifying LSCD diagnosis in the study eye(s) prior to enrollment at Day 1 * Written confirmation that exclusions on retinal findings are met in the study eye(s) prior to enrollment at Day 1 * Inflammation associated with LSCD or other non-infectious inflammation (e.g., dry eye, ocular rosacea, and blepharitis) that will not interfere with the subject's participation in the opinion of the investigator is permitted. Exclusion Criteria: * Any active ocular infection in either eye at either the Screening or Day 1 visits * Active sterile iritis or uveitis in either eye at Screening or Day 1 visits * Screening visit retinal exam finding, in the opinion of the investigator, that would limit potential for visual acuity gain in the study eye(s) Note: Other inclusion/exclusion criteria apply.
