A Phase 2a, Open Label Multicenter Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Effects of a Single Intravitreal Injection of vMCO-010 Optogenetic Therapy in Subjects With Stargardt Disease
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effects of a single intravitreal injection of virally-carried Multi-Characteristic Opsin (vMCO-010) in Subjects with Stargardt Disease
• ≥16 years of age
• Able to comprehend and give informed consent.
• Able to comply with testing and all protocol tests.
• Documented clinical diagnosis of Stargardt disease (classic fleck phenotype and/or well-demarcated sub-foveal area of significantly reduced autofluorescence as imaged by FAF), or genetic diagnosis with pathogenic variants in ABCA4, ELOVL4, or PROM1
• In the study eye: ETDRS BCVA in range of 1.3 logMAR (Approximate Snellen equivalent: 20/400) to 1.9 logMAR (Snellen equivalent: 20/1600), and ETDRS BCVA no better than 20/200 in the fellow eye.
• Presence of retinal inner nuclear and nerve fiber layers on optical coherence tomography (OCT) testing in the study eye at screening
