General Information |
| Summary |
The purpose of this study is to is to evaluate the occurrence of late onset (i.e., greater than 5 years after treatment) safety events of special interest in participants who have received sub-retinal transplant of human embryonic stem cell derived - retinal pigment epithelial (hESC-RPE) cells in an AIRM-sponsored clinical trial. The events of special interest are adverse events (AEs) that are presumed to have a potential causal relationship to the hESC-RPE cells. |
| Description |
Participants will be contacted by the Patient Outreach Center (POC) on an annual basis to complete a questionnaire about the occurrence of safety events of special interest, as defined in the Outcome Measure section.
The questionnaire will be completed directly by the participant (via a secure web based platform) or will be administered via telephone by a POC staff member. In the event of the occurrence of a safety event of special interest, study participant will be encouraged to contact the POC as soon as possible, rather than wait for the annual questionnaire completion. Follow up data is inclusive of the 1 year in the core trial, 4 years in the long term follow up trial and 10 years in this long term safety follow up. Participation for United Kingdom participants will be life-long. |
