A Clinical Trial Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of a Single Subretinal Injection of AGTC-501 in Participants With XLRP

A Randomized, Controlled, Masked, Multi-center Study Evaluating the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Two Doses of AGTC-501 Compared to an Untreated Control Group in Male Participants With X-linked Retinitis Pigmentosa

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will evaluate and compare the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of 2 doses of a recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (AGTC-501/laruparetigene zovaparvovec )) to an untreated control group in male participants with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa caused by RPGR mutations.

Criteria the registry did not label

  • General Inclusion Criteria:
  • Provide written informed consent or assent (per local regulation), prior to the conduct of any study-related procedure. Participants who provide assent must have a parent, guardian, or legal representative provide written informed consent.
  • Be between 12 and 50 years of age (inclusive) at the time of informed consent and assent (as applicable).
  • Be male (XY chromosome) and have at least one documented pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in the RPGR gene.
  • Have a clinical diagnosis of XLRP.
  • Be able and willing, as assessed by the Investigator, to follow study instructions, complete study assessments, comply with the protocol, and attend study visits for the duration of the study.
    • Ocular Inclusion Criteria (Study Eye):
  • Have a BCVA ≤ 78 letters (approximately Snellen, 20/32) and ≥ 34 letters (approximately Snellen, 20/200)
  • Have a LLVA ≤64 letters (approximately Snellen 20/50) in the study eye
  • Be able to perform all tests of visual and retinal function and structure in both eyes based on the participant's reliability, and fixation, in the study eye per the Investigator's discretion.
  • Have an LLD of \> 10 letters in the study eye
  • Have detectable baseline mean macular sensitivity measured by MAIA microperimetry, between 1-12 decibels (dB) in the study eye, as determined by the Investigator and confirmed by the CRC with fixation loss ≤20% at each screening visit.
  • Have a detectable sub-foveal EZ line in the study eye as assessed by spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and confirmed by the CRC.
    • General Exclusion Criteria:
  • Have other known disease-causing mutations documented in the participant's medical history or identified through a retinal dystrophy gene panel, that in the opinion of the Investigator would interfere with the potential therapeutic effect of the study agent or the quality of the assessments.
  • For participants with herpes simplex virus (HSV):
    • Have history of oral or genital herpes and unable and/or unwilling to utilize prophylactic antiviral medication.
    • Have a history of ocular herpes.
    • Have active oral or genital herpes or are currently receiving treatment for HSV infection.
  • Have known sensitivity or allergy to systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medications.
  • Have used anti-coagulant agents that may alter coagulation
  • Have used systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medications within 3 months prior to screening and/or intend to use during screening. Corticosteroids used on an as-needed basis administered by insufflation, inhalation or local administration to the skin
  • If sexually active or planning to become sexually active, are unwilling to use barrier contraception for 3 months following treatment administration.
  • Are currently participating or recently participated in any other research
  • Have previously received any AAV gene therapy product, stem cell therapy, cell-based therapy, or similar biologics.
  • Have significant media opacity impacting evaluation of the retina or vitreous. administration.
  • Had intraocular surgery within 90 days of study treatment administration.
  • Have any active ocular/intraocular infection or inflammation
  • Have a history of corticosteroid-induced raised IOP of \>25 mmHg following corticosteroid exposure, despite topical IOP-lowering pharmacologic therapy.
  • Have any artificial retinal implant or prosthesis.
  • Have absence of clear ocular media and/or inadequate pupil dilation to facilitate good quality SD-OCT images.
  • Have any history of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
  • Have myopia (spherical equivalent) exceeding -10 diopters (or axial length of \>30 mm if the Principal Investigator \[PI\] deems it appropriate to measure) or presence of pathologic myopia in the study eye.
  • Have passed the Low Contrast Ora-VNC mobility course at ≤0.35 lux light level in either eye or binocularly at any screening visit.
