Brief Summary
This will be a non-randomized, open-label, Phase 1/2 study of the safety and efficacy of AGTC-401 administered to one eye by subretinal injection in individuals with achromatopsia caused by mutations in the CNGB3 gene. The primary study endpoint will be safety and the secondary study endpoint will be efficacy.

Interventions
rAAV2tYF-PR1.7-hCNGB3 is a non-replicating, rep/cap-deleted, recombinant adeno-associated virus vector that expresses the CNGB3 gene.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female subjects with documented mutations in both alleles of the CNGB3 gene;
- Retinal disease consistent with a clinical diagnosis of achromatopsia;
- At least 18 years of age for Groups 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. At least 6 years of age for Group 4a, and 4-8 years of age for Groups 5a and 7;
- Able to perform tests of visual and retinal function;
- Visual acuity in the study eye not better than 55 ETDRS letters (Snellen equivalent 20/80) based on the average of two examinations at the baseline visit;
- Acceptable laboratory parameters;
- For females of childbearing potential: A negative pregnancy test within 2 days before administration of study agent.
You may not qualify if:
- Best-corrected visual acuity difference between the two eyes of \> 15 ETDRS letters (3 lines);
- Evidence of degenerative myopia in the study eye;
- Pre-existing eye conditions that would contribute to vision loss in either eye or increase the risk of subretinal injection in the study eye.
