PHENOROD2 Trial Summary

This trial is looking at the effects of different mutations that cause Retinitis Pigmentosa, a degenerative disease of the retina.

Who is the study for?
This study is for individuals with Retinitis Pigmentosa, a degenerative eye condition, specifically caused by mutations in the RHO, PDE6A or PDE6B genes. Participants must have a certain level of visual acuity and field diameter, understand the local language well enough to follow instructions, and be part of a health system if they're in France. Pregnant women or those with other retinal issues are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial involves regular eye exams and mobility tests to track how Retinitis Pigmentosa progresses over time when it's caused by specific genetic mutations. It's an observational study meaning there's no treatment being tested; instead, researchers are studying the natural course of the disease.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is an observational study without any medical treatments or drugs being administered, there are no direct side effects from interventions. However, participants may experience discomfort from frequent ophthalmic examinations.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What ultimate goal is this medical research aiming to attain?

"This clinical study, lasting approximately 12 months, will measure the progression of disease over time through Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF), Dark Adaptometry (DA) refraction and visual acuity using ETDRS or Snellen scales as well as Full-field Stimulus Thresholds (FST)."

Answered by AI
