Overview

Brief Summary

This is a two-step, multicenter, Phase I/II study including an open-label dose-escalation phase (Step 1) and a three-arm controlled double-masked randomized extension phase (Step 2), in subjects with advanced RCD due to a mutation in the RHO, PDE6A, or PDE6B gene.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Subjects will be eligible to participate in this study only if all the following criteria apply:
  • Able to give signed informed consent and comply with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in the protocol.
  • Age ≥18 years at the time of ICF signature.
  • Subjects of either gender previously diagnosed with advanced RCD due to biallelic mutations in the rod cGMP phosphodiesterase 6 beta (PDE6B) or rod cGMP phosphodiesterase alpha (PDE6A) genes, or due to a monoallelic dominant mutation in the rhodopsin (RHO) gene. The genotyping results must be documented before the initiation of the Screening Visit. Subjects should be retested by the investigator if their genotyping tests were not performed within the 3 previous years, or if they were not performed by an accredited laboratory. In this case, the screening period can be prolonged for 2 additional weeks to allow time to generate genotyping results.
  • Advanced stage is defined as a stage of the natural history of the disease where both distance visual acuity and visual field are affected in both eyes. Substages within the advanced stage are defined as follows (monocular measurements, horizontal axis of isopter III4e for the visual field):
  • Severe stage is defined by both a BCVA below or equal to 20/200 and above or equal to 20/400, and a visual field below or equal to 20 degrees (subjects of Cohorts 1 to 3)
  • Intermediate stage is defined by both a BCVA below or equal to 20/40 and above 20/200, and a visual field below or equal to 20 degrees (subjects of Cohorts 4 to 6)
  • Regardless of the severity of the disease, the difference in visual acuity between the two eyes of a given subject should be equal to or below 0.3 logarithm of the minimal angle (LogMAR) (≤ 3 ETDRS lines).
  • Clinical diagnosis of RCD based on past medical and family history, mid-peripheral visual field dysfunction, photopsia, night blindness (nyctalopia), and fundoscopic appearance (including but not restricted to bone spicule pigmentation, attenuation of the retinal vessels, and waxy pallor of the optic nerve).
  • Diagnosis of RCD is confirmed on prior full-field ERG (any previously performed ERG is acceptable).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subjects are not eligible to participate in this study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • Subjects with prior administration of any gene therapy or any previous treatment with stem cell therapy for ocular or non-ocular disease.
  • Subjects participating in another clinical trial and receiving an investigational medicinal product (IMP) within 5 half-lives or 90 days prior to the injection of SPVN
  • Subjects with RCD due to any mutation in genes other than those listed in the inclusion criteria.
  • Subjects with systemic disease or other pathology not related to their diagnosis of RCD, and whose symptoms or associated treatments may affect vision, for example cancers or pathology of the central nervous system.
  • Subjects with narrow irido-corneal angles or any other medical situation contraindicating pupillary dilation.
  • Subjects known to be allergic to any of the delivery vehicle constituents or to any other drugs planned to be used during the clinical study.
  • Subjects with known allergies to corticosteroids, or who will be unable to tolerate the corticosteroid regimen as described in the protocol
  • Subjects with systemic disease or other medical or psychiatric conditions that preclude safe participation in the study.
  • Subjects receiving immunosuppressive therapies, other than the immune modulating regimen described in this protocol, or any other therapy known to influence the immune system including but not limited to steroid implants, cytostatics, interferons, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-binding proteins, drugs acting on immunophilins, or antibodies with known impact on the immune system.
