Summary

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.
