VIDEO: OCU410 gene therapy for geographic atrophy safe in early data

SALT LAKE CITY — In this video, Jay Chhablani, MD, discusses preliminary data from the ArMaDa study of OCU410 gene therapy for geographic atrophy presented at the ARVO meeting.
In this phase 1/2 open-label dose-escalation trial, nine patients received a subretinal injection of low-dose, medium-dose or high-dose OCU410 (Ocugen), which delivers the RORA gene.
