The main objective of the proposed trial is to determine the safety and efficacy subretinal administration of a recombinant adeno-associated viral vector (rAAV 2/2.hRPE65p.hRPE65) at three different dosage levels in individuals with autosomal recessive severe early-onset retinal degeneration due to mutations in RPE65. We have a comprehensive clinical monitoring plan to investigate the safety and efficacy of vector delivery.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether gene therapy is safe and effective for the treatment of severe childhood blindness caused by mutations in RPE65.
