GR44251 - GAlette (Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration) - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
We are doing this study to find out if an investigational drug called OpRegen (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for older adults who have geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We also want to know if a procedure called subretinal surgical delivery is an effective way to give people the study drug.
