Study summary

The Goal of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical responses following single dose of DSP-3077. Study enrolls both male and female patients in 3 cohorts with each cohort defined by visual acuity (VA) criteria and dose level of DSP-3077. Each cohort will include 4 participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label, single-arm, uncontrolled, dose-escalation study evaluating 2 dose levels of iPSC-derived retinal sheets (DSP-3077) administered with a single subretinal uniocular injection in adults with RP. The total duration of participant participation will be approximately 67 months from start of Screening through end of Extension Observation Period Part B. After an initial 2-week period of frequent visits after surgery, the visit frequency will be approximately monthly through Month 4, every 3 months through Month 24, and every 6 months through Month 60. After completion of Study DE101101 (Month 60 Visit or ET Visit) and under a separate process, the Sponsor will collect long-term data following treatment with DSP-3077, annually from 6 years to 15 years after DSP-3077 administration to further characterize the long-term safety of DSP-3077.

Participants will be treated in 3 cohorts, with each cohort defined by visual acuity (VA) criteria and dose level of DSP-3077. Each cohort will include 4 participants for a total of 12 participants.

Primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 2 dose levels of DSP-3077 in adults with RP. Other objectives are to evaluate the safety, engraftment, and potential therapeutic response of 2 dose levels of DSP-3077 in adults with RP and to evaluate DSP-3077-delivery device performance.

Inclusion criteria

  • Participant is >= 18 years of age at the time of signing the .
  • Participant has a clinical diagnosis of nonsyndromic retinitis pigmentosa.
  • Participant is willing to consent to genetic testing, if not already done.
  • Cohorts 1 and 2: Participant will have BCVA in the study eye between hand motion and 20 ETDRS letter score (approximately \<= 20/400 Snellen equivalent), inclusive at Screening and Baseline.
  • Cohort 3: Participant will have BCVA in the study eye between 20 ETDRS letter score (approximately >= 20/400 Snellen equivalent) and 35 ETDRS letter score (approximately \<= 20/200 Snellen equivalent), inclusive at Screening.
  • Participant is in good physical health, based on medical history, physical examination, vital signs, (ECG), and clinical laboratory tests at Screening.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant has an eye disease or visual disorder other than RP that impairs visual function (eg, retinal vascular disease, glaucoma).
  • Participant has any other eye condition (eg, ocular media opacity, nystagmus), which in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude an accurate evaluation at any time during the study and/or make surgical delivery more challenging.
  • Participant has any unstable medical condition or any clinically significant chronic disease that in the opinion of the investigator, would limit the participant's ability to complete and/or participate in the study.
  • Female participant who is pregnant or lactating or planning to become pregnant.
  • Participant has received treatment with any nonapproved, experimental, or therapy in either eye (systemic, topical, intravitreal) and/or received treatment in an interventional clinical trial for an eye disease or disorder within 90 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Screening.
  • Participant has previously received cell therapy, gene augmentation therapy, genome editing therapy, or any subretinal administered therapy for an eye disease or disorder.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

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.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
