Study summary

The overall purpose of this global, multicenter, two cohort, central image evaluator masked study is to characterize the clinical safety and efficacy of NT-501 manufactured using the Medica - Clinical Hollow Fiber Membrane (M-CHFM) for the treatment of MacTel and to evaluate whether its safety profile and efficacy are comparable to those of NT-501 manufactured using the Clinical Hollow Fiber Membrane (CHFM).

Read the detailed description

This Phase 3 study consists of two cohorts:

  • Cohort 1 (Extension): Includes participants previously enrolled under the original protocol who received NT-501 (M-CHFM) and will continue follow-up. Participants will undergo evaluations of safety and efficacy from pre-surgery through month 24 or in the event of NT-501 explantation for any reason.
  • Cohort 2 (Expansion): Includes newly enrolled participants randomized 1:1 to receive either NT-501 (M-CHFM) or NT-501 (CHFM). Participants will undergo evaluations of safety and efficacy from pre-surgery through month 12 or in the event of NT-501 explantation for any reason.

Inclusion criteria

To participate in this study, the potential subject and at least 1 of their eyes must meet all of the following criteria:

  1. Subjects must have a positive diagnosis of MacTel with evidence of fluorescein leakage typical of MacTel and at least one of the other features that include hyperpigmentation that is outside of a 500-micron radius from the center of the fovea, retinal opacification, crystalline deposits, right-angle vessels, or inner/outer lamellar cavities seen clinically or on SD-OCT.
  2. Subject must have a break in the ellipsoid zone (EZ) (area of IS/OS loss) as measured by SD-OCT between 0.16 and 2.00 millimeters squared.
  3. Subject's best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) is 54-letter score or better (20/80 or better) as measured by the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at screening.
  4. Subject must have steady fixation in the foveal or parafoveal area and sufficiently clear media for good quality retinal imaging.
  5. Subject must be greater than or equal to 21 years of age and less than 80 years of age at screening.
  6. Subject or their legally authorized representative must be able to provide written to participate in the study, in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practices guidelines, and local regulations, before initiating any study-related procedures.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria

To participate in this study, the potential subject must not meet any of the following criteria. The ocular exclusion criteria are related to the study eye (unless indicated for either eye):

  1. Subject is medically unable to comply with study procedures or follow-up visits.
  2. Subject received intravitreal therapy for non-neovascular MacTel within the last 3 months.
  3. Subject has ever received intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in the study eye OR has, within the past 3 months, received intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy in the fellow eye at randomization.
  4. Subject has evidence of ocular disease other than MacTel that, in the judgment of the examining physician, may confound the diagnosis, procedures, or outcome of the study (e.g., uncontrolled glaucoma, severe non-proliferative or proliferative diabetic retinopathy, uveitis).
  5. Subject has a chronic requirement (e.g., ≥ 4 weeks at a time) for ocular medications and/or has a diagnosed disease that, in the judgment of the examining physician, may be vision threatening or may affect the primary outcome (artificial tears are permitted). The exceptions to this exclusion criteria include artificial tears or one glaucoma medication for early or intermediate primary open-angle glaucoma.
  6. Subject has evidence of intraretinal neovascularization or subretinal neovascularization (SRNV), as evidenced by hemorrhage, hard exudate, subretinal fluid or intraretinal fluid in either eye.
  7. Subject has evidence of intraretinal hyperreflectivity by OCT.
  8. Subject has evidence of central serous chorio-retinopathy in either eye.
  9. Subject has evidence of pathologic myopia in either eye.
  10. Subject has significant corneal or media opacities in either eye.
  11. Subject has had a vitrectomy, penetrating keratoplasty, trabeculectomy, or trabeculoplasty.
  12. Subject has any of the following lens opacities: cortical opacity > standard 3, posterior subcapsular opacity > standard 2, or a nuclear opacity > standard 3 as measured on the Age -Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) clinical lens grading system.
  13. Subject has undergone lens removal in the previous 3 months or YAG laser within 4 weeks.
  14. Previous participation in any Neurotech MacTel clinical trial unless the participant: (1) previously consented and screened for a MacTel study but was a screen failure solely due to insufficient lesion size; or (2) has completed participation in the prior Neurotech MacTel study, is not actively enrolled in another Neurotech MacTel study, and has an eligible study eye that was not the study eye in the previous trial.
  15. Subject was a participant in any other ocular related or ocular impacted clinical trial of an intervention (drug or device) within the last 6 months.
  16. Subject is on chemotherapy.
  17. Subject is pregnant or breastfeeding.
  18. Subject has a history of that would compromise the 12-month study survival.
  19. Subject with a history of ocular herpes virus in either eye.
  20. Subject has, in the opinion of the investigator, any physical or mental condition that would increase the risk of participation in the study or may interfere with the study procedures, evaluations, and outcome assessments.
  21. Subject has evidence of subfoveal RPE hyperplasia.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
