Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Are willing and able to provide informed consent for participation in the study.
  • Have a clinical phenotype and confirmed genetic diagnosis of CHM.
  • Have active disease clinically visible within the macular region.
  • Are willing and able to undergo ophthalmic examinations once every 4 months for up to 20 months.
  • Have a BCVA better than or equal to 6/60 (20/200; decimal 0.1; LogMAR 1.0; 34-38 ETDRS letters) in at least one eye.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have a history of amblyopia in the eligible eye.
  • Have any other significant ocular or non-ocular disease/disorder in the eligible eye which, in the opinion of the investigator, may put the subject at risk because of participation in the study, influence the results of the study or influence the subject's ability to participate in the study.
  • Have participated in an interventional research study in the past 6 months.

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Best-Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (EDTRS)
Time Frame: Up to Month 20
BCVA will be assessed for both eyes using the Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) chart. BCVA test should be performed prior to pupil dilation, and distance refraction should be carried out before BCVA is measured. Initially, letters are read at a distance of 4 meters from the chart. If <20 letters are read at 4 meters, testing at 1 meter should be performed. BCVA is to be reported as number of letters read correctly by the participant using the ETDRS Scale (ranging from 0 to 100 letters) in the study eye. The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). An increase in the number of letters read correctly means that vision has improved.
Up to Month 20

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in Reading Performance using International Reading Speed Texts (IReST)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 12
Reading performance will be evaluated prior to pupil dilation.
Baseline up to Month 12
Change from Baseline in Color Vision
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 12
Colour vision will be tested prior to pupil dilation. Each eye will be tested separately and in the same order.
Baseline up to Month 12
Change from Baseline in Visual Fields
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 12
The progression of defects in visual fields will be assessed in both eyes using perimetry equipment.
Baseline up to Month 12
Change from Baseline in Contrast Sensitivity
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 12
Contrast sensitivity will be measured for both eyes, prior to pupil dilation, using a Pelli Robson chart.
Baseline up to Month 12
Change from Baseline in Retinal Thinning Using Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 20
SD-OCT measurements will be performed after dilation of the participant's pupil.
Baseline up to Month 20
Change from Baseline in Area of Viable Retinal Tissue Using Fundus Autofluorescence
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 20
Fundus Autofluorescence will be performed after dilation of the participant's pupil to assess changes in the area of viable retinal tissue.
Baseline up to Month 20
Change from Baseline in Retinal Sensitivity Using Microperimetry
Time Frame: Baseline up to Month 20
Macular analyser integrity assessment (MAIA) microperimetry will be conducted for both eyes to assess changes in retinal sensitivity within the macula.
Baseline up to Month 20
