What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests an experimental gene therapy called NGGT001 for people with Bietti Crystalline Dystrophy, a rare inherited condition that causes progressive vision loss. The therapy is delivered as a single injection under the retina, aiming to replace a faulty gene with a working copy. The study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of the treatment and look for early signs that it can improve or stabilize vision.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
NGGT001, a gene therapy using a modified virus to deliver a working copy of the CYP4V2 gene into the retina via subretinal injection.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a one-time treatment that slows or stops vision loss in people with Bietti Crystalline Dystrophy, potentially preserving sight.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with only 12 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Risks include potential side effects from the injection or the viral vector, and the therapy may not improve vision.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

1. Age ≥ 18 years old. 2. Male or female. 3. Confirmed diagnosis of BCD. 4. Molecular diagnosis confirmed cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily v member 2 (CYP4V2) mutation. 5. AAV2 neutralizing antibody titer ≤1:5120. 6. 0.05 ≤ Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) ≤ 0.3. 7. -6.00D ≤ Refractive error ≤ +3.00D. 8. Agree to take contraceptive measures from the start of the study until one year after medication administration. 9. Volunteer to participate in the study and sign informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. There are choroidal neovascularization or other ocular diseases caused by BCD, which are considered to affect the operation or interfere with the interpretation of clinical endpoint. 2. Patients with evidence of neovascularization or suspected neovascularization, and the presence of tubular reflectivity in the neuroepithelial layer as shown by OCT. 3. Those who had used any of the treatment drugs within 6 months before enrollment, such as Lucentis, Avastin, Conbercept, Triamcinolone acetonide, etc. These may affect the experimental observation. 4. The treated eyes have undergone intraocular surgery, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT), vitrectomy, periocular vascular bypass surgery, etc., or need intraocular surgery in the process of clinical research, such as cataract surgery, retinal laser therapy, etc. 5. Have used or may use systemic drugs that may cause eye damage, such as psoralen, tamoxifen, etc. 6. Highly sensitive or allergic to ingredients in the test drug (with allergic history of two or more drugs or food). 7. Physical examination, vital signs, and laboratory examination (such as blood routine, urine routine, blood biochemistry, coagulation function, immunology examination, etc.) are abnormal and clinically significant, or the investigators believe that the abnormal indicators have clinical significance. 8. There are diseases or medical histories that may affect drug safety or in vivo processes, especially cardiovascular, liver, kidney, endocrine, digestive tract, lung, nerve, blood, tumor, immune or metabolic disorders considered by investigators to be of clinical significance. 9. Participated in clinical trials of other drugs or medical devices within three months before enrollment. 10. Female patients who are pregnant or lactating. 11. Any other conditions which lead the investigator to determine the participant is unsuitable for this study.
