Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 8 to 50 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or females between 8 and 50 years of age at the time of signing theinformed consent form.
  • Willing to adhere to protocol as evidenced by written informed consent orparental permission and subject assent.
  • Clinical confirmed diagnosis of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) andmolecular diagnosis of LCA due to RPE65 mutations.
  • Ability to perform tests of visual and retinal function.

Who cannot join

  • OCT examination determined that the outer nuclear layer was not visible inthe planned injection area (Bleb) in the study eye.
  • Presence of epiretinal membrane by OCT.
  • Complicating systemic diseases or clinically significant abnormal baselinelaboratory values.
  • Complicating systemic diseases would include those in which the diseaseitself, or the treatment for the disease, can alter ocular function.
  • Prior ocular surgery within six months.
  • Prior gene therapy or oligonucleotide therapy treatments.
  • Any other condition that would not allow the potential subject to completefollow-up examinations during the study and would, in the opinion of theinvestigator, make the potential subject unsuitable for the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing HG004 in people with Leber Congenital Amaurosis, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence and severity of ocular and systemic adverse events (time frame: 26 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Sep 2024.
