Summary

A project has been developed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to enable male patients with choroideremia to access a clinical trial that replaces the defective gene with a normal copy. This experiment is designed to show that the transfer of a normal copy of the gene to the eye is not only safe but may improve the sight of patients. Only Canadian subjects who meet criteria will be recruited.
