Phase I Dose Escalation Safety Study of RetinoStat in Advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) (GEM)

April 3, 2017 updated by: Oxford BioMedica

A Phase I Dose Escalation Safety Study of Subretinally Injected RetinoStat, a Lentiviral Vector Expressing Endostatin and Angiostatin, in Patients With Advanced Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

The purpose of this first in man study is to examine the safety of an experimental gene transfer agent, RetinoStat, designed to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

There are two parts to the study. A dose-escalation phase looking at three doses of RetinoStat starting with the lowest dose, three patients will be recruited at each dose level. The escalation phase will be followed by a dose confirmation phase where the highest dose that is safe and well tolerated will be examined in 9 patients.
