Acerca de la investigación

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if NPI-001 works to prevent progression of retinitis pigmentosa in adults diagnosed with Usher syndrome. It will also provide information about the safety of NPI-001. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does NPI-001 slow down the loss of photoreceptors? What medical problems do participants have when taking NPI-001? Researchers will compare NPI-001 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if NPI-001 works to preserve vision.

Participants will:

Take NPI-001 or a placebo twice a day, every day for 24 months and visit the clinic 9 times for checkups and tests.

7. Willing to use contraception during study (for anyone of childbearing potential).

Exclusion Criteria:

2. Intraocular surgery within the last two months or capsulotomy within the last month.
3. Current or history of uveitis, Coat's disease, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, herpes simplex of the eye, or currently has a cataract that prevents visualization of the posterior pole.
4. Likely to require cataract surgery within the next 12 months.
5. Unstable fixation during microperimetry in either eye at either Screening or Baseline visits.
6. Use of any other investigational new drug, or participation in another clinical trial within 12 weeks before the start of study treatment.
7. Use of N-acetylcysteine containing products in the previous 30 days prior to the baseline visit or unwilling to refrain from such supplements for the duration of the study.

9. Suspected liver dysfunction determined by having alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), or bilirubin values \> 1.5 X the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening.
10. Platelet or hemoglobin values \< 100 at screening.
11. History of known sensitivity to N-acetylcysteine or similar thiol compounds or any ingredients of NPI-001.
12. History of hypersensitivity to any medication or food resulting in systemic symptoms.
13. History of cancer (other than non-melanoma skin cancer) diagnosed or requiring treatment within the past 2 years.

18. Inability to provide blood samples, including difficulty with venous access.
19. Any reason, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, the participant should not participate.
