RESTORE Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: GS010-treated EyesExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Lenadogene nolparvovec Intravitreal ocular unilateral Injection Each participant will have one eye randomly selected to receive a single injection of GS010 and the other eye will receive a sham injection. GS010-treated Eyes: GS010 is a recombinant adeno-associated viral vector serotype 2 (rAAV2/2) containing the wild-type ND4 gene (rAAV2/2-ND4). Participants will receive a single dose of GS010 in one of their randomly selected eyes, via intravitreal injection containing 9E10 viral genomes in 90μL balanced salt solution (BSS) plus 0.001% Pluronic F68®.
Group II: Sham-treated EyesPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Sham Intravitreal ocular unilateral Injection Each participant will have one eye randomly selected to receive GS010 and the other eye will receive a sham injection. Eyes receiving sham injection will undergo the same preparatory procedures as eyes receiving GS010 injection, including pupillary dilation, topical anti-infection and topical anesthetic procedures. Sham intravitreal injection will be performed by applying pressure to the eye at the location of a typical intravitreal injection procedure using the blunt end of a syringe without a needle.
