What type of clinical trial is this?
This is a
prospective, open-label clinical trial.
- This is a clinical trial where all participants know they are receiving the investigational gene therapy product and will be followed over time.
What is the route of administration into the body?
The investigational gene therapy is given as a single intracerebroventricular (ICV) dose into the brain and a single intravitreal (IVT) dose into one eye. Both doses are given during the same procedure.
How long does the clinical trial last?
Each participant will be followed for safety and efficacy for
5 years after dosing.
- For approximately the first 6 months after the gene therapy is given, the participant will reside close to the clinical trial site to enable the clinical trial doctor to monitor and care for the participant.
- After the initial safety monitoring period, there will be telephone and in-person visits with the gene therapy clinical trial site in decreasing frequency for regular assessments over a 5-year period.
