ProQR Therapeutics are conducting an ongoing clinical trial to investigate the safety and tolerability of QR-1123 in individuals living with Autosomal Dominant Retinitis Pigmentosa, due to the P23H mutation in the RHO gene.
Aurora is a 12-month trial designed to assess if differing doses of investigational gene therapy QR-1123 are safe, as well as to determine whether or not they elicit any improvements in visual function or retinal structure. Participants in the study receive a single intravitreal injection or as many as 4 doses and the effects of these treatments will be measured to confirm a safe and effective therapeutic dose.
ProQR have a page on their website describing the Aurora clinical trial, rationale and design, along with other links to get additional details about Aurora.
