Phase 2: testing Dapagliflozin for Retinal Degeneration

AMD is a leading cause of blindness in individuals over 50 years old, with dry AMD being the most common form. Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced stage of dry AMD characterized by progressive retinal cell degeneration.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07174687 · Washington University School of Medicine · enrollment listed as 70

What this phase means

Phase 2: researchers already know a roughly safe dose (from phase 1). This stage asks whether the treatment actually helps the condition, and watches side effects more closely.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Dapagliflozin, or Matching Placebo. The registry lists allocation as randomized. AMD is a leading cause of blindness in individuals over 50 years old, with dry AMD being the most common form.

They plan to enroll about 70 people at St Louis. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.

Official title (unrewritten)

Efficacy of Dapagliflozin in the Progression of Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Interventions: Dapagliflozin, Matching Placebo

Primary outcome (registry wording): Mean Change From Baseline in Square Root GA Lesion Size in the Study Eye at Month 12

Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)

  • Ages 50 Years to any
  • Are reliable and willing to make themselves available for the duration of the study and are willing to follow study procedures
  • Participant is male or, if female, participant is surgically sterilized or amenorrheic for at least one year
  • Evidence of dry advanced AMD, including non-foveal GA or small foveal-involving GA, provided visual acuity criteria are met
  • The geographic atrophy may involve the fovea, provided the best-corrected visual acuity remains within protocol limits
  • Total area of geographic atrophy must be between 2.5 mm2 and 17.5 mm2 (1 - 4 disc areas, respectively)
  • If the geographic atrophy consists of multiple lesions, at least one lesion must have an area of ≥1.25 mm² (equivalent to 0.5 disc areas)
  • BCVA between 20/25 and 20/320
