Details and patient eligibility

About

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess efficacy and safety in patients with myopic chorioretinal atrophy.

The main question it aims to answer are:

• Percentage of changes in the chorioretinal atrophic area

Participants will be implanted one sheet of PAL-222 into the subretinal space through pars plana vitrectomy.

Researchers will compare non-therapeutic eye to see if the changes is significant different.

  • Patients diagnosed with binocular myopic chorioretinal atrophy and having atrophy of 1 papillary diameter (1.5 mm) or more in the area within 2 papillary diameter (3.0 mm) including the fovea centralis in the subject eye
  • Patients without active choroidal neovascularization

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with abnormal findings that pose a problem in clinical trial participation in screening tests.

  • Patients with allergies to human serum albumin antibiotics, trypsin
  • Patients with eye infections
  • Patients with other retinal diseases (diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, vascular occlusion)
  • Patients with confirmed optic nerve atrophy
  • Patients with glaucoma who cannot control intraocular pressure
  • Patients with findings associated with myopic traction macular disease (apparent posterior macular tumor, vitreous macular traction, retinal separation, macular hole detachment, macular hole)
  • Patients with atrophy in all areas of the circle within 3 papilla diameter (4.5 mm) (9.0 mm in diameter) from the fovea
  • Patients with corrected visual acuity of control eye 0.08 or less
  • Patients with severe blood disorders, heart failure, liver disorders, and renal disorders
