About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study on CRISPR/Cas9 Instantaneous Gene Editing Therapy to Primary Open-angle Glaucoma With Elevated Intraocular Pressure and MYOC Gene Mutation

This study is intented to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of CRISPR/Cas9 Instantaneous Gene Editing Therapy (BD113 virus-like particle, also BD113vLVP) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) with elevated intraocular pressure and MYOC gene mutation. The main objectives to evaluate the safety and tolerability BD113vLVP) in POAG patients with intraocular hypertension and MYOC mutation, and secondary objectives is to explore the preliminary efficacy and the metabolism characteristics of BD113vLVP in participants.

Read the detailed description

This is an open, single-dose, two-arm, non-randomised clinical study. A total of 6 to 9 POAG patients with high intraocular pressure were enrolled and divided into two test groups. Test Group 1 recruits 3 POAG patients, who have elevated IOP and positive or negative MYOC mutation and target interventing eye is no vision. Test Group 2 will recruit 3 to 6 POAG patients with MYOC mutations and visual acuity. In order to better verify the lowering IOP effectiveness of BD113vVLP, another 2 or 3 participants will be recruied in Group 2 on-demand. Each participant will receive single dosing BD113vVLP (4µg p24) by intracameral injection in the interventing eye, then conduct the evaluations of the safety and efficacy according to visit schedule in 1 year follow-up。

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BD113vVLPGenetic

    Also called BD113 virus-like particle, CRISPR/Cas9 mRNA instantaneous gene editing technology

    CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology, called BD113vVLP (also BD113 virus-like particle) which is a developing product of gene therapy from modified third-generation integrated defective lentivirus, can deliver gRNA/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex (RNP). It works to knock out or knock down the mutated MYOC gene. The BD113vVLP is administrated by intracamerally injecton (sigle-dose: 4ug/p24) for each target interventional eye.

Study groups in NCT06465537
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1: POAG without vision for interventional eyeExperimentalInterventional eye of participants with POAG has no vision, with mutated or unmutated MYOC gene. Single dose of BD113vVLP will be administrated intracamerally for target interventional eye.
Receives: Genetic: BD113vVLP
Group 2: POAG with vision for interventional eyeExperimentalInterventional eye of participants with POAG has vision acuity, and MYOC gene mutation test is positive. Single dose of BD113vVLP will be administrated intracamerally for target interventional eye.
Receives: Genetic: BD113vVLP

What is being measured

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BD113vVLP in people with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Shanghai BDgene Co., Ltd. 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 13 inclusion and 24 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Aug 2026. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Ocular adverse events (AEs) (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Aug 2026.
