ArmTypeDescription
Dose Group 1EXPERIMENTALA single, unilateral, subretinal injection of low dose (1E10 vg/eye) OPGx-001 is injected into two LCA5 adults (18 yo or above) in a sentinel fashion. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, a subsequent LCA5 adolescent (13-17) may be treated in a sentinel fashion, with a unilateral, subretinal injection of OPGx-001. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, two remaining adolescents (13-17) are eligible to be treated with a single, unilateral, subretinal injection of a low dose of OPGx-001. Total cohort size is 5 (2 adults and 3 adolescents).
Dose Group 2EXPERIMENTALA single, unilateral, subretinal injection of an intermediate dose (3E10 vg/eye) OPGx-001 is injected into two LCA5 adults (18 yo or above) in a sentinel fashion. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, a subsequent LCA5 adolescent (13-17) may be treated in a sentinel fashion, with a unilateral, subretinal injection of OPGx-001. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, two remaining adolescents (13-17) are eligible to be treated with a single, unilateral, subretinal injection of an intermediate dose of OPGx-001. Total cohort size is 5 (2 adults and 3 adolescents).
Dose Group 3EXPERIMENTALA single, unilateral, subretinal injection of high dose (1E11 vg/eye) OPGx-001 is injected into two LCA5 adults (18 yo or above) in a sentinel fashion. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, a subsequent LCA5 adolescent (13-17) may be treated in a sentinel fashion, with a unilateral, subretinal injection of OPGx-001. A 30-day safety evaluation and data committee review and approval of continued dosing occurs. If additional dosing is recommended, two remaining adolescents (13-17) are eligible to be treated with a single, unilateral, subretinal injection of a high dose of OPGx-001. Total cohort size is 5 (2 adults and 3 adolescents).
Part B ObservationalNO_INTERVENTIONPart B will occur concurrently with Dose Groups 1-3. Sixteen patients will be assessed for 6 months to assess the natural course of LCA5-IRD, then will be treated with OPGx-001 which will be described in a future protocol amendment.
