What the study is about
The purpose of this double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, paired-eye study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Sepofarsen in subjects with Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA) due to the c.2991+1655A>G (p.Cys998X) mutation in the CEP290.
Being studied: sepofarsen; Placebo IVT
Conditions: Leber Congenital Amaurosis 10; Blindness; Leber Congenital Amaurosis; Sensation Disorders; Vision Disorder; Neurological Manifestations; Eye Diseases, Hereditary; Eye Diseases; Eye Disorders Congenital; Retinal Disease

Inclusion Criteria
- Confirmed clinical diagnosis of LCA10 and a molecular diagnosis of homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for the c.2991+1655A>G mutation in CEP290.
- Adults: >=18 years / Minors: 6 to \<18 years.
- BCVA (FrACT) equal to or worse than logMAR +0.4 (approximate Snellen equivalent 20/50) to +2.9 logMAR based on quantifiable, reliable FrACT. LP subjects with documented evidence of prior better vision eligible.
- Symmetrical disease between the two eyes as defined by a BCVA (FrACT) within 0.2 logMAR at baseline.
- Detectable ONL in the macular area as determined by the CRC at Screening.
Exclusion Criteria
- Mutations in genes other than the CEP290 gene associated with other IRD diseases or syndromes.
- Presence of any ocular pathology in either eye that may make comparison of the eyes not feasible.
- Presence of unstable concurrent CME, or subject started on (or changed dose of) topical or systemic carbonic anhydrase inhibitor treatment in the 3 months prior to enrollment. CME is allowed if stable for 3 months (with or without treatment).
- Presence of any clinically significant lens opacities/cataracts based on the AREDS lens grading scale.
- Any prior receipt of genetic (RNA or DNA therapy) or stem-cell therapy for ocular or non-ocular disease, including sepofarsen.
