ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new treatment for Retinitis Pigmentosa, a condition that can lead to vision loss. Researchers are testing two different doses of stem cells taken from umbilical cord tissue to see if they can help preserve vision. There are two groups in the study: one group will receive 1.5 million cells, and the other group will receive 5 million cells. Both groups will have 30 participants and will receive injections near their eyes. Everyone will be monitored for six months to see how well the treatment works.
To participate, individuals should have a certain level of vision and specific measurements of their eye function. Eligible participants must be willing to undergo several eye tests and sign consent forms. However, pregnant or nursing women, those with certain medical conditions or eye diseases, and individuals taking certain medications cannot take part in this trial. Overall, this study aims to explore a potential new way to help people with Retinitis Pigmentosa, and participants will play an important role in this research.
