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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 study tests a gene therapy called OCU400 for people with retinitis pigmentosa, an inherited eye disease that causes vision loss. The treatment is injected under the retina to help light-sensitive cells work better. The trial enrolled 140 people aged 3 and older and measures if they can navigate a maze in dim light after one year.

Why investors are watching

Ocugen is a micro-cap company with few products, so this Phase 3 trial of OCU400 for retinitis pigmentosa is its main value driver. The study has finished enrolling 140 patients, and the results will show whether the gene therapy can slow or stop vision loss across many genetic causes of the disease. A clear readout matters because Ocugen's future depends heavily on this single drug.

If it works: A positive result could support Ocugen's path to regulatory approval for OCU400, giving the company its first marketed product. That outcome would validate its gene therapy platform and could lead to a commercial launch in a large inherited blindness market.

If it fails: Phase 3 trials often fail, and OCU400 could miss its efficacy goals or show safety problems. A negative or unclear result would likely force Ocugen to restart development or abandon the program, leaving the company with few other assets.
