Drug Profile

OCU400 is an investigational AAV5-hNR2E3 modifier gene therapy for retinitis pigmentosa. The program is being studied in a Phase 3 multicenter randomized trial in mutation-defined and broader RP populations. Development updates describe it as a potential one-time subretinal treatment with planned regulatory filings rather than an approved product.

Drug Class
AAV5-hNR2E3 modifier gene therapy
Approval Status
Investigational Phase 3 candidate; not yet approved.
Mechanism of Action
Subretinal AAV-mediated delivery of NR2E3 to retina/RPE as a gene-agnostic modifier approach to preserve or restore retinal structure and function.
Indications
  • \Retinitis pigmentosa associated with RHO mutations\
  • \Retinitis pigmentosa with other RP-associated mutations (gene-agnostic phenotype arm)\
