Nanoscope Therapeutics Inc. is proud to share?positive 2-year results from the Phase?2b?RESTORE randomized, controlled clinical trial of MCO-010?for patients with permanent and severe vision loss from advanced retinitis pigmentosa (RP).?Results were presented by?Allen Ho, MD, FACS, FASRS, Director of Retina Research and Co-Director of the Retina Service at Wills Eye Hospital, and Chief Medical Advisor of Nanoscope, on?October 20, 2024?at the recently concluded?American Academy of Ophthalmology 2024?Annual Meeting. During his presentation titled “Efficacy and Safety of MCO-010 Optogenetic Therapy for Vision Restoration in Patients With Severe Vision Loss Due to RP: Two-Year TOPLINE Results From a Phase?2b/3 Randomized, Sham-Controlled Clinical Trial (RESTORE),” Dr. Ho highlighted the measured benefit of ~0.3 LogMAR (3-line, 15-letter equivalent) mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improvement that was maintained at later time points over the course of the sham-controlled trial.?

Nanoscope Therapeutics Inc. announces the publication of an important research article of Optogenetic Gene Therapy for Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA) in the Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics October 2024 issue. “LCA is a genetic disorder whose pathology is linked to at least 28 different defective genes, appearing within the first few months of life, globally?affecting approximately 200,000 newborns. Our research paper demonstrating, for the first time, vision improvement in a mouse model of LCA using?a mutation-agnostic gene therapy involving a novel triad fusion protein of MCO-010 represents an important milestone,” said Naj Sharif, PhD, DSC, VP Global Research & Development for Nanoscope. Nanoscope’s MCO-010 platform has not only demonstrated durable, mutation-agnostic efficacy across advanced retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt clinical programs, but has also demonstrated the potential to be disease-agnostic?within Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) in multiple other preclinical models of retinal degenerative diseases including LCA. Authors of the study, all members of the Nanoscope research team, include Adnan Dibas, Subrata Batabyal, PhD, Sanghoon Kim, Michael Carlson, Samarendra Mohanty, and Naj Sharif, PhD, DSC To read the full study: https://lnkd.in/gcK_USur To learn more about Nanoscope Therapeutics and MCO-010 Optogenetic Gene Therapy: nanostherapeutics.com #Genetherapy #retinitispigmentosa #Stargardt #ophthalmology
