Beacon is pleased to announce the presentation of 24-month interim results of the Phase 2 SKYLINE trial in patients with X-Linked Retinitis Pigmentosa (XLRP) at the American Academy of Ophthalmology's Annual Meeting in Chicago. XLRP is a blinding rare disease with no available treatment. The 24-month data indicated that AGTC-501 was generally safe and well-tolerated, and showed robust improvements in mean retinal sensitivity. The benefit-risk profile supports on-going clinical development, and we are enrolling our pivotal Phase 2/3 VISTA and open-label Phase 2 DAWN trials for AGTC-501 as we progress toward a potential treatment for patients with XLRP. To read more about the 24-month data from the Phase 2 SKYLINE trial, you can find our press release here: https://lnkd.in/dJsqPrWQ #AAO2024 #ophthalmology #genetherapy #XLRP
