Tests treatment safety and results for Oculocutaneous Albinism (OCA)
Official title Safety and Efficacy of a Single Suprachoroidal Injection of JWK010 Gene Therapy in Subjects With Oculocutaneous Albinism Type 1 (OCA1)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07313618
What this study is testing
What is JWK010 gene therapy?
JWK010 gene therapy is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for oculocutaneous albinism (oca).
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is the most common type of albinism. People with OCA have little or no pigment (melanin) in their eyes, skin, and hair.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
