  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: low dose group
300,000 HuRPE cells
Biological: Human primary Retinal Pigment Epithelial (HuRPE) cells
HuRPE will be transplanted by a board-certified vitreoretinal surgeon, which will be administered into the subretinal space of experimental eye through a standard surgical approach.
EXPERIMENTAL: middle dose group
500,000 HuRPE cells
Biological: Human primary Retinal Pigment Epithelial (HuRPE) cells
HuRPE will be transplanted by a board-certified vitreoretinal surgeon, which will be administered into the subretinal space of experimental eye through a standard surgical approach.
EXPERIMENTAL: high dose group
1,000,000 HuRPE cells
Biological: Human primary Retinal Pigment Epithelial (HuRPE) cells
HuRPE will be transplanted by a board-certified vitreoretinal surgeon, which will be administered into the subretinal space of experimental eye through a standard surgical approach.
