About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Age Related Macular Degeneration focused on measuring Age Related Macular Degeneration

Eligibility Criteria

50 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Clinical diagnosis of AMD with active CNV that shows evidence of leakage.
  • BCVA less than or equal to 20/200 in the study eye for dose escalation phase.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Significant ocular abnormalities that prevent retinal assessment.
  • Treatment with steroids within three months of screening.
  • Treatment with anti-VEGF therapy to either eye within one month of screening.
  • Clinically significant intercurrent illnesses, laboratory, ECG or chest XRay abnormalities.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this first in man study is to examine the safety of an experimental gene transfer agent, RetinoStat, designed to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
Detailed Description
There are two parts to the study. A dose-escalation phase looking at three doses of RetinoStat starting with the lowest dose, three patients will be recruited at each dose level. The escalation phase will be followed by a dose confirmation phase where the highest dose that is safe and well tolerated will be examined in 9 patients.
