Brief Summary

Phase 2/3 Pivotal Confirmatory Clinical Trial is a randomized, outcome assessor-masked, multicenter study, that will enroll fifty-one (51) subjects. Subjects will be enrolled in a 2:1 ratio to either the treatment group (n=34 subjects) or to an untreated control group (n=17 subjects). Phase 1 is complete and closed for enrollment. It was a multicenter, open-label, dose ranging/dose escalation study that enrolled 9 subjects.

Conditions

Stargardt Disease

Keywords

ABCA4-associated retinopathies

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Change from baseline in atrophic lesion size as measured by Fundus Auto Fluorescence

  Change in the area of atrophy will be evaluated from the baseline measurements, using FAF to assess the loss of retinal layers.

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

• Safety (Participants With Ocular and Non-ocular AEs (Adverse Events) and SAEs (Serious Adverse Events))

  Safety will be determined by the number of ocular and non-ocular Study Drug-related adverse events (SDAE), treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs).

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Change from baseline in Low Luminance Visual Acuity (LLVA)

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

• Change from baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

Other Outcomes (2)

• Patients Global Impression of Change (PGIC) score

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

• Care Giver Administered Global Impression of Change score

  12 months (Screening to 12 months post OCU410ST administration)

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 5 Years+
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Males or females aged ≥5 years at the time of consent.
• Subjects who have confirmed clinical and CLIA certified or equivalent genetic diagnosis of Stargardt disease (including ABCA4 related retinopathies).
• Adult subjects who have BCVA of 75 letters or less in the study eye (20/32 Snellen equivalent) and Pediatric subjects who have a BCVA of 35 letters or better in the study eye (20/200 Snellen equivalent).
• The study eye should have at least one well-demarcated area of atrophy with a minimum diameter of 300 microns, and total lesion size must add to less than or equal to ≤ 18 mm2 (approximately 7-disc areas).
• Have detectable outer nuclear layer (ONL) in the macular region

You may not qualify if:

• Participation in ongoing antiretroviral therapy treatment.
• Participation in any experimental treatment or research study within 60 days before screening (any previous eye treatments involving gene therapy, stem cells, implanted retinal chips, injections into the eye, or participation in an Alkeus ALK-001 study within the past 6 months)
• Macular atrophy secondary to any disease other than Stargardt Disease (STGD).
• Presence of genetic mutations that mimic Stargardt Disease like ELOVL4, or PROM1.
• Contraindication to subretinal injection or use of anesthesia (local and/or general).
• Phase 1 was a multicenter, open-label, dose-ranging/dose escalation study. Enrollment is complete for Phase 1

Model Details: The study will be conducted in two phases. Phase 2/3 Pivotal Confirmatory Clinical Trial is a randomized, outcome assessor-masked, multicenter study. A total of fifty-one (51) subjects will be enrolled in a 2:1 ratio to either the treatment group (n=34 subjects) or to an untreated control group (n=17 subjects). Treatment group: 34 subjects. Subjects will receive a single subretinal injection of 200 µL OCU410ST in concentration of 1.5×10E11 vg/mL. Control group: 17 subjects. Subjects who are enrolled in the untreated control group of the study will not receive any treatment. They will be followed according to the same treatment schedule as the treated subjects. Phase 1 was a multicenter, open-label, dose-ranging/dose escalation study. A 3+3 study design will be used for the sequential dose-escalation cohorts in which subjects will receive a single subretinal injection of OCU410ST. Enrollment is complete for Phase 1.
