Full description

This is an open-label, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of EA-2353 in subjects with RP. There will be up to 4 cohorts. Each of the first three cohorts will treat 3 subjects with 4 weekly injections of EA-2353.

Unilateral intravitreal injections (IVT) will be administered into the subject's Study Eye, which is determined as the eye with worse vision based on the BCVA. Eligible subjects will be enrolled into one of the following three cohorts in an ascending sequential fashion:

• Cohort 1 (low dose)
• Cohort 2 (mid dose)
• Cohort 3 (high dose)
• Cohort 4 (maximum tolerated dose)

Patient participation will last for approximately 25 months.

Enrollment: 14 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

5. BCVA in the worse eye between 20/50 and able to count fingers (CF)

2. Have any uncontrolled systemic disease or non-ocular disorder which would put the subject at risk due to study treatment or procedures, influence the results of the study, or impact the subject's ability to participate in the study (e.g., infection, uncontrolled elevated blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and inability to maintain glycemic control).
3. Presence of a significant ocular disease or disorder in the Study Eye.
4. Have a history of any vitreoretinal surgery ever in the Study Eye.
