retinal gene therapyviral vectorsThe gene therapy approach for retinal disorders has been considered largely over the last decade owing to the favorable outcomes of the US Food and Drug Administration-approved commercial gene therapy, Luxturna. Technological advances in recent years, such as next-...
A wide range of retinal disorders can potentially be treated using viral vector-mediated gene therapy. The most widely used vectors for ocular gene delivery are based on adeno-associated virus (AAV), because they elicit minimal immune responses and mediate long-term transgene expression in a variet...
Gene therapy for retinal dystrophy Counteracting splice defects in theCEP290gene using RNA antisense oligonucleotides or Cas9-mediated gene editing is a therapeutic strategy for Leber congenital amaurosis type 10—a severe untreatable retinal dystrophy leading to childhood blindness. ...

Gene therapy for neurological disorder is currently an experimental concept. The goals for clinical utilization are the relief of symptoms, slowing of disease progression, and correction of genetic abnormalities. Experimental studies are realizing these
A gene therapy for retinal degenerative diseases receives an investigational new drug (IND) clearance from the FDA to move forward with the Phase 2 trial of the multi-characteristic opsin (MCO-010) therapy. A Phase 2 trial can begin investigations on MCO-010 gene therapy as treatment for ...
Retinal degenerative diseases typically have a genetic cause, in that mutated genes either lead to the production of an abnormal protein or disable production of a protein completely. Gene therapy involves the introduction of a functional copy of the gene into a patient...
