Retinal dystrophy

Gene therapy for hereditary retinal dystrophy has received drug-agency approval

Luxturna is the first approved gene therapy for replacing specific mutated genes.

It is the first gene therapy approved to treat those suffering from inherited retinal dystrophy associated with mutation of the RPE65 gene. This is a rare disease affecting approximately 1,000–2,000 patients in the United States. Vision loss often begins in childhood.

The therapy uses an engineered adeno-associated virus as a vector to deliver a working copy of the RPE65 gene directly into retinal cells. A surgeon performs a subretinal injection.
