About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Multicenter, Phase 2 Follow-on Study for Second Eye Treatment of Patients Previously Treated With a Recombinant Adeno-associated Virus Vector (AAV5 hRKp.RPGR) for Gene Therapy of Adults and Children With X-linked Retinitis Pigmentosa Owing to Defects in Retinitis Pigmentosa GTPase Regulator (RPGR)

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of subretinal delivery of Adeno-associated Virus Vector (AAV5 hRKp.RPGR) gene therapy in adults and children with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

Being tested
AAV5-hRKp.RPGR, No intervention (Follow-Up assessment)

What participants receive

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

  • AAV5-hRKp.RPGRBiological

    Also called JNJ-74765340, botaretigene sparoparvovec

    AAV5-hRKp.RPGR will be administered sub-retinally.

  • No intervention (Follow-Up assessment)Other

    Participants will not receive any intervention and will undergo follow-up assessment.

Study groups in NCT06646289
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort 1ExperimentalParticipants will receive a dose of AAV5 hRKp.RPGR under the retina (low-dose or intermediate-dose) on Day 1 depending on the dosage administered in study MGT009 (NCT03252847) in the past. After receiving the treatment, participants will be assessed for safety.
Receives: Biological: AAV5-hRKp.RPGR
Cohort 2ExperimentalParticipants will receive the treatment dose of AAV5 hRKp.RPGR under the retina (low-dose or intermediate-dose) on Day 1 in the second eye once the safety will be determined in Cohort 1.
Receives: Biological: AAV5-hRKp.RPGR
Cohort 3OtherThe participants who are not willing to undergo surgery or are not eligible for surgery will be assessed in this cohort. They will be assessed yearly until 5 years after their initial eye surgery in previous study MGT009.
Receives: Other: No intervention (Follow-Up assessment)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non investigational) product.

    Measured: From baseline up to 5.5 years

  2. Change from Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Chart Letter Scores

    Change from baseline in BCVA by ETDRS chart letter scores in monocular assessment of the second treated eye will be assessed. BCVA was measured using the ETDRS Scale (ranging from 0 to 100 letters) in the study eye. An increase in the number of letters read correctly means that vision has improved and vice-versa.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60

  3. Change from Baseline in Low Luminance Visual Acuity (LLVA) by ETDRS Chart Letter Score

    Change in LLVA by ETDRS chart letter scores from baseline in monocular assessment of second treated eye will be assessed. Visual function assessments included LLVA assessment in each eye by ETDRS letters. The letter score ranges from 0 (worse score) to 100 (best score), and a gain in LLVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity.

    Measured: Baseline, Months 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AAV5-hRKp.RPGR in people with X-Linked Retinitis Pigmentosa, run by MeiraGTx Ocular UK Ltd at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 25 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States, United Kingdom. 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?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE) (time frame: From baseline up to 5.5 years). The study lists 3 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 25 Sep 2026.
