Janssen noted that results from Phase 1/2 MGT009 study demonstrate safety profile of investigational gene therapy botaretigene sparoparvovec (AAV-RPGR) and suggest sustained vision improvement in patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa.

The results also showed that, compared to use of systemic antivirals alone, treatment with adjunctive intravitreal injections or early pars plana vitrectomy did not affect the time to development of retinal detachments.

The data analysis indicated that patients achieved robust visual gains and central subfield thickness reductions with faricimab dosed every 8 weeks and with PTI dosing up to every 16 weeks. The gains were sustained through year 2 of the trials.
