简要总结
RGX-314 is being developed as a novel one-time gene therapy for the treatment of neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) also referred to as Wet AMD. Wet AMD is characterized by loss of vision due to new, leaky blood vessel formation in the retina. The purpose of this phase 2, open label study is to evaluate whether different doses of RGX-314 from two different formulations (clinical versus eventual commercial formulation) perform the same in humans when delivered by subretinal administration
详细描述
Wet AMD is a significant cause of vision loss in the United States, Europe and Japan, with up to 2 million people living with wet AMD in these geographies alone. Current anti-VEGF therapies have significantly changed the landscape for treatment of wet AMD, becoming the standard of care due to their ability to prevent progression of vision loss in the majority of patients. These therapies, however, require life-long repeated intraocular injections to maintain efficacy. Due to the burden of treatment, patients often experience a decline in vision with reduced frequency of treatment over time. RGX-314 is being developed as a potential one-time treatment for wet AMD. RGX-314 uses an AAV8 vector that contains a gene that encodes for a monoclonal antibody fragment which binds to and neutralizes VEGF activity. This phase 2, open label study will explore the pharmacodynamics of two doses in two formulations of RGX-314 gene therapy via subretinal delivery in patients with neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration. Approximately 60 patients (15 per cohort) who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled in 4 sequential dose cohorts. A dose cohort will be comprised of 1 of 2 doses of RGX-314 in 1 of 2 formulations in order to explore the pharmacodynamics of RGX-314 based on aqueous humor transgene product (TP) concentrations. If the participants meet the study criteria and choose to participate in the study, their participation in the study will last about 12 months.
