About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Stargardt's Macular Dystrophy

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult male or female over 20 years of age.
  • Clinical diagnosis of advanced SMD.
  • The visual acuity of the eye to receive the transplant will be no better than hand movement.
  • The visual acuity of the eye that is not to receive the transplant will be no better than 24 (20/320) Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of malignancy.
  • History of myocardial infarction in previous 12 months.
  • History of diabetes mellitus.
  • Any immunodeficiency.
  • Any current immunosuppressive therapy other than intermittent or low dose cortico steroids.
  • Serologic evidence of infection with Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV.
  • Current participation in any other clinical trial.
  • Participation within previous 6 months in any clinical trial of a drug by ocular or systemic administration.
  • Any other sight-threatening ocular disease.
  • Any chronic ocular medications. Any history of retinal vascular disease (compromised blood-retinal barrier). Glaucoma. Uveitis or other intraocular inflammatory disease. Significant lens opacities or other media opacity. Ocular lens removal within previous 3 months

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

50,000 cells

Arm Description

Biological: MA09-hRPE Cellular therapy

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

safety and tolerance of transplantation
The transplantation of hESC-derived RPE cells MA09-hRPE will be considered safe and tolerated in the absence of: Any grade 2 (NCI grading system) or greater adverse event related to the cell product Any evidence that the cells are contaminated with an infectious agent Any evidence that the cells show tumorigenic potential

Secondary Outcome Measures

Evidence of successful engraftment
Evidence of successful engraftmentEvidence of successful engraftment will consist of: Structural evidence (OCT imaging, fluorescein angiography, autofluorescense photography, slit-lamp examination with fundus photography) that cells have been implanted in the correct location Electroretinographic evidence (mfERG) showing enhanced activity in the implant location

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of RPE cellular therapy in patients with SMD Group When-MA09-hRPE cell transplantation to evaluate the safety of surgical procedures. In future studies intended to assess the number of transplanted hRPE cells. In the past, MA09-hRPE cell therapy used in the study was to evaluate the validity of the potential. Homologous retinal pigment epithelial cells derived from embryonic stem cells, future studies of drugs that are used in representing the potential validity to evaluate the optimal dose.
