About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Retinitis Pigmentosa
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Have a clinical diagnosis of retinitis pigmentosa.
- Have a visual acuity of no light perception or bare light perception for Cohort 1 confirmed with a LogMar >3 using the Berkeley Rudimentary Vision Test (BRVT), and have a visual acuity of count fingers or hand motion as confirmed by a LogMar < 3.0 and > 1.6 using the BRVT for Cohort 2.
- Have similar visual acuity in both eyes as defined as a LogMar difference between eyes of < 0.05 using the BRVT.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Have evidence of material/substantial optic nerve disease.
- Have a history of retinal detachments.
- Have clinically significant ocular disease (e.g., corneal oedema, uveitis, severe keratoconjunctivitis sicca) which might interfere with the study or clinically significant opacities of the media.
- Have high intraocular pressure (IOP) >22 mm Hg.
- Have had a previous intraocular surgery (excluding phakocataract surgery).
- Have aphakia.
